alright guys...i'm sick'n'tired
everytime i start playing around with it i find something else .....

now what's this???


...also: is there a new trick with the dambuster-bomb...since pp6.1 it won't explode anymore???

...also: where's the ju88 nightfighter???

...also: where's the 'overcast' with 1.5.2.9???

...also: only 'bloky' clouths here with bf109's (even with the 'nonreflect-canopy')

..also: no more gun sound with alot of planes in the air (wasn't a problem before pp6.1...don't think it's patch related)...


...now give me answers, please don't start guessing 'it could be this ..it could be that'...as i said before i'm realy tired of all this mess with sdoe

ps: i love this game otherwise i would buy il2!!

with love

gt,
try to answer some of your questions:
-The Ju88 nightfighter is still there,but got the wrong loadout from the Ju87G2.
So if you have a loadout from this plane,put it into: aircraft\Ju88G7b directory.

-Overcastlayer are disabled since patch build63, but i hope whe get them back in next patch!!!

-blocky clouds happened if planes used to high numbers of tifs,because SDOE is limited in numbers of tif files and the 109er used many of them.But i got not everytimes blocky clouds with the 109, it depends how many planes are in the air or if there are other high number of tifs using plans in the same mission.

If the dambuster bomb used a breaking dof trick then it might not work from what I have read with the new patches.

Like rend said, overcast is gone for now, sucks.

Blocky graphics are usually a sign that you have ran out of texture ram on your vid card.

I know on my banshee I could have about 7-9 differnt plane types in a mission before I ran out. Its 16 meg, whats your card?

To fix it you can delete your cache files and SDOE will rebuild them.

I havn't used the latest patches (waiting for the new PP from the crew) so I havn't a clue what happened to the gun sounds.

Buy IL-2 anyways and play both.

Don't buy Il2 ,, It's not out!

The clouds question has been asked before..

what you need is a nice prelease beta of ta new patch 5.2.1.10! if it exists

Hi GT,

Well, if you want to scream at anyone, scream at me. I did all the engine damage mods for pp6.1 and in so doing, saved each plane with OPS v1.3. A side effect of that save is that the canopy position gets moved down and back a litte bit.

I thought I checked and rechecked all planes and corrected all the misaligned canopies. I will check my pc as soon as I can and let you know.

Anyway, hang in there because as the new Base Pack and addon packs get released by "The Crew", I am sure this problem will be corrected.

The blocky graphics, the only thing that fixed it was not having so many squadrons in a mission. I found 4 to 5 squadrons in a mission works well. I really don't think it's your vid card, I mean I got a GeForce 3 with 64mb of DDR ram, 256mb of ram, PIV 1.7 and I get the blocky graphics if I load up on squadrons! So I think it is SDOE hitting the wall. Funny how I can run the Peal Mission in CFS2 with everything to the fullest and not have any problems.

Hi gt,

LOL, I've been out last 2 nights and I get a chance to check this on my pc and no problems. As soon as the upcoming base pack is release(or availiable in beta) check this out and leave a message whether or not the canopy is still no correct for you.

Is anyone else seeing missing canopies like gt is?

Regarding the blocky graphics:

"To fix it you can delete your cache files and SDOE will rebuild them."

How do I do this?

I encountered the misplaced cloud blocky graphics testing the new Somme training missions (see the feedback posts at the WW1 pages). Pentium III 800, Geforce 256 16 Megs, Win 98 Second Edition, latest WWW patch (.9).

Oh, and on the subject of positive feedback,

This old sim is the ONLY thing I'm flying now!

I love it!

Including your Bombing the Reich, GT, which I consider the DEFINITIVE campaign for SDOE!

V/R,
