Thanks for asking.
Well firstly I have included the easy map additions such as:
Ardennes winter, seasonal Normandy with British airbase (January and March) and Norway winter. All completed and fully functional. I love the new textures with these, just beatiful!
Darwin map.Completed and fully functional.
Sakishima map. Near completion (with variable army airbase occupation)
More to come possibly but I may decide to release sooner and add additional maps afterward. Maps are the time consuming beast with MM.
New aircraft so far:
Seafire MKII Merlin-45 & 50
Spitfire MKVC & MKVIII
Spitfire XII
Spitfire XIVc & XIVe
FW 190 A3
That's it so far.
FYI, I had lost almost all motivation in recent months because my PC had become so old that I just couldn't enjoy the whole IL-2 thing anymore. Last month the old girl passed her last breath forcing me to upgrade. What a difference this whole IL-2 mod thing is with a new machine!! Certainly jump started my interest again.
Oops, I almost forgot, I have implemented a new feature that will allow the user to add non flyable mods to the MM flyable list. That is to say, formal IL-2 AI aircraft with pit mods will be user nominated and will appear in the MM flyable list along with all the formally listed flyables. This allows me to stay neutral to this facet of the mods while allowing you guys the choice of adding these mods as you choose. I will admit to enjoying having the P36 and BF110C4 added casually to my flyable list!! :wink:
