Oleg is due to release his finalised 4.09 soon.
What will be the effect of my installing this over my AAA 1.1.1 configuration?
Will I have to start again and patch to Oleg's 4.09 and then re-install the AAA 1.1.1?
No one knows until the official 4.09 patch is released for general use.
I remember reading somewhere that 4.09 would not be incompatible with mods.
Maybe someone from the Diadalus 4.09 team can comment?
Since there are new aircraft involved then I expect the buttons file will need to be updated to include these.
Then there are all the amendments to *.ini and *.properties files etc.
I dont know how close UI 1.2 is to release but it would be a good idea to wait for the official 4.09 patch so that IL2VersionSwitcher can be configured to work with it. At the moment the switcher works very well but there are no aircraft additions involved in switching from 4.08 to 4.09beta
I can't imagine that this would be a good idea klem. Why don't you set up a clean install of FB (a second one) on your machine - patch it to 4.08 and then install the new 4.09 patch/add-on to it. It'll mean you have to run two separate versions of the game for a while, but that's better than screwing up the version that you now have.
thank goodness for AAA mods.
i see once again om has completely snubbed the raf and rn with the content of his 4.09 update being released.
there gonna be more italian aircraft in the game than british!! not bad for a country that only declared war cos they thought britain and france were finished, then made a complete balls up of the war so the germans had to rescue them in greece, malta and africa, and then
changed sides when things got tough! jeez what did G.55's ever do? he's mental or on something for sure!
no spit 14, no typhoon, no more mossies no more beaus, no meteor, no lancaster, no wellington, no halifax, no flyable blen, no swordfish, no firefly, no vampire - i could go on - the bloke is a bloody idiot with an apparent hatred of the uk. i for one wouldn't buy any of his bloody stuff if it was the last game on earth.
i mean theres just 2 brit tanks in the game and essentially just 2 classes of ship! no malta scenery either despite it being the most bombed place in history.
This jerk has managed to entirely rewrite the aerial history of ww2. he hasn't got a clue what really happened. good flight sim, crap handling.
Well, I hope we're dealing with two options here, as far as Mr flying_spud is concerned:
a) his post was supposed to be a joke/trolling attempt/fishing bait, not very funny or original for that matter, or...;
b) he's most likely a novice Il-2 player, not very familiar with sim's development history and not aware of the fact that planeset choice / modelling is not Mr OM's and his workers' job anymore - it has been mostly 3rd party teams' job for a long time (since Manchuria / Pe-2 addon If I recall correctly?). The result is - if the 3rd party team doesn't want or cannot model all those marvellous UK planes - they won't and nobody will force them to do so. On the other hand If they have a fancy idea of modelling planes from Italy/Burkina Faso/The Moon/Whatever, they will do it, not giving a flying $hit about Mr flying_spud's opinion. They do it in their free time and thay have a right to do so. And I have a right not to fly these new Italian birds, cause I'm not interested in them anyway. To each his own.
If neither of options a) and b) apply, then I'm afraid I must agree with Robo's reply three posts above.
Cheers
I don't want to lock this.
