For those that have remarked badly about Oleg/1C when it comes to their decisions NOT to make some of the changes that have been done fairly easily by the modders, keep in mind that official changes must be supported.

Before support can be given, changes must undergo a lot of testing, and when (not if) glitches are found they must be fixed. That's the kind of thing they don't have time to do.

Imagine how people would have complained if the 6DOF cloud shake bug or the airstart spawn bug had been part of an official release. Even something as mundane as the lack of lower gunner animation on the Jill when controlled by a player would have been thrown in their face.

Now, I'm not saying that any of the mod users would be included in the "...people would have complained..." comment above, but, before bashing them, keep in mind that the audience they release to includes every single user and not just those that are willing to take a risk, experiment, and accept some limitations.

Our squad, Air Group 51, is happy to announce that our old Pacific Conflict server is back up an running courtesy of Kapt. You can find it in HL as PacCon, and it will host up to 40 people. It is a full switch server with the exception of the speed bar. There are several historic based maps in rotation, and it is a Mod friendly server as well. No FM modded a/c will be allowed, and anyone caught using same will be banned. If you visited this server before, you will find it the same but with most of the added planes included where appropriate. It is primarily a Pacific Theater server, however there are some European scenarios included. Come on in and play!! Big Grin

Hello,

I have two mods ready:

First, Il-2 uses the Mig-3U cockpit for the Mig-3 2xUB and 2xShVAK. This is not only unhistorical but the internal and external models' canopy frames don't match. I have a couple of files that fix this through swapping the original Mig-3 cockpit in.

Second, I have an example "Hud log" text file. You remember the pulsing text that sits in front of your eyes even while flying full real? This file removes common non-essential messages (eg. throttle position) and simplifies essential ones (eg. radiator position, engine temperature) to single letters or arrangements of dots. This massively improves immersion for me (especially with external view disabled). The file used for this mod is already accessible for editing in text format for those people with the english sound mod and can be easily customised.

Both mods have been sent to MrJolly some time ago but I am not sure when or if they will be posted. So I thought I would offer them to any other file hosts or interested individuals. S!

is there a way to make flames come out of the exhoust pipes? i have seen ww2 footage where there we some flames from exhaust. it is generated by when the fuel is still burning and the exhaust valves open up letting some hot gases to escape. also it will be cool if you had drag racing flames that will reach 6ft in length 8) some one should make a mod if possible

In my attempts to add extra playable nations I MAY have stumbled onto the method to add squadrons instead. This will require further investigation and if I'm correct it will also reguire LOTS of typing of file names for the filelist.txt......... so don't expect anything soon............ and I may have to do it in stages. Will keep you posted.

What about improving the Norden and LotFe bomb sights?
I have always wondered about the strange fact that you have steadily to correct your input, otherwise you
are unable to hit the target.
If you are far from target, you have to decrease your true airspeed under the indicated.
The closer you get the more you have do increase your TAS. Without doing that the target moves out of sight.
But in reality it wouldn't, the centre will stay on target, if you entered the true speed and height.
So, my question, is there a possibility to change this?

Greetings

MRUD
