1CGS Han Posted January 22, 2016 1CGS Posted January 22, 2016 120 Hello! Today is an important day for the project - we start the beta test of three new Battle of Moscow timeframe planes at once: Bf 109 F-2, IL-2 model 1941 and Pe-2 series 35. If all goes according to the plan, these planes will be available to all owners of Battle of Moscow next week. It's possible that the new update will be postponed for a week because of the large amount of new content, but let's hope for the best As we said earlier, we started the discussion on what we'll be doing later this year. Long term planning requires long discussion, so we'll be able to give an answer to the question 'what will come next after Battle of Moscow' both to you and ourselves closer to its release. In the meantime, we created a list of improvements for our flight model department we'd like to have in the coming months. It consists of two independent parts that will be worked on in parallel, and the tasks are arranged in the order they will be done (the list is likely to be corrected as the work goes though). So... ............. Full news - here is a full text and visual materials You're very welcome to subscribe for new videos here You can ask new questions in this thread 10
PeterZvan Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Some great Fm related plans inside - really looking forward. Not to mention the F2
Juri_JS Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 19. Implement smoke generators; Can you tell us more about this feature. I've seen the discussion about the smoke generators in the Russian forum, but it wasn't clear to me what your exact plans are.
Voidhunger Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Thanks for the news. Its a great list of improvements and a lot of work! Especially thanks for these: 20. Make bailing out impossible during heavy rotations or other hard maneuvers 21. Make pilot head movement more realistic by adding a simple spine model 23. Make twin engine coolers on Bf 109 F4, Bf 109 G2 and Ju 87 D3 more detailed (currently always left cooler emits vapor when any radiator is damaged) 10. Implement jamming and self-closing of sliding canopies from high speeds and pitching/diving
II./JG77_Manu* Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 (edited) 1. Check and correct fineness ratios of all planes with their flaps extended; 9. Correct 'jumpy' behavior of Bf 109 F4, G2 and F2 to resemble E7 behavior and check other planes; almost too good to be true. This could become the best update ever Edited January 22, 2016 by II./JG77_Manu*
LLv24_Zami Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Thanks for the news! Very impressive list you have there. Another big step forward for this great sim
=LD=Penshoon Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Awesome update! I hope the Mig 3 FFB effects can be fixed as well! 21. Improve force feedback effects on FFB capable joysticks (taxiing over bumpy field, ground impact when landing without landing gear);
SYN_Mike77 Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 That is a great list, but lets not get too excited. I don't think that list is the next update list but rather a longer range project list. I could be wrong (and I hope I am) but that is how I read it.
PeterZvan Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Yes - I read it the same way. However the fixes list the flaps finess ratios as the first task so that does sound really good.
Saurer Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 (edited) But is is still great to have a list of fixes and feauturs that are planed over the next months Edited January 22, 2016 by Saurer
LLv24_Zami Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 (edited) Yes, Han clearly states "we created a list of improvements for our flight model department we'd like to have in the coming months." So not on next patch, at least not all of them. Edited January 22, 2016 by Zami
keeno Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Great update and a very detailed list of proposed fixes/improvements, not to mention the pending implementation of the new aircraft. It just keeps getting better! Cheers
150GCT_Veltro Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 You're incredible guys, really a powerfull team. Thank.
I./JG1_Baron Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 New DD looks promising. Especially if will repaired some sad issues with game stability.
Blooddawn1942 Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Incredible list! Thanks again for another splendid update!
CCG_Pips Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Awesome update! I hope the Mig 3 FFB effects can be fixed as well! 21. Improve force feedback effects on FFB capable joysticks (taxiing over bumpy field, ground impact when landing without landing gear); +1000
Guest deleted@50488 Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 9. Correct 'jumpy' behavior of Bf 109 F4, G2 and F2 to resemble E7 behavior and check other planes; do you mean... the "wobbling" in pitch and yaw mostly ?
6./ZG26_5tuka Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Sry Mig fans and others, but this is by far THE Best Dev Diary ever! I've hoped for sth like this for long time and finally it's there! Those are many good FM fixes and new feautures, I really hope they will all make it into the game. The new planes aren't bad either.
Lusekofte Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Sry Mig fans and others Did I misunderstand something, MIG fans? Anyway thx for the update, looking forward to BOM so one can fly less modern planes with less modern opponents
Potenz Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Amazing list of improvements, we have very bright future ahead.
72sq_Popale Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 16. Improve autolevel flight assist for non-dive bombers (He-111, Ju-88, Pe-2 s. 87 and Pe-2 s. 35) so it will use rudder instead of ailerons for corrections; :salute: :salute: time to level bombing 1
Mags Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 (edited) Great list, impressive! Edited January 22, 2016 by Mags
6./ZG26_5tuka Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Did I misunderstand something, MIG fans? Those who called the Mig update the best dev diary Anyway, forgot to add a big thx to Viks and the FM team for working on all those nice FM improvements and feautures. 1
Lusekofte Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Those who called the Mig update the best dev diary Ahhh, I like the MIG but I totally agree with you, this is a better update
SYN_Mike77 Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 1. Check and correct fineness ratios of all planes with their flaps extended; Hah and no word on climbrates and misperforming airplanes. Just as i expected. Winger just likes to whine. Even in the face of an explicit statement from the devs. 2
BraveSirRobin Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 There is of course no guarantee the outcome will be to your liking. The opposite is most likely true, no matter what the devs do.
SR-F_Winger Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 (edited) 1. Check and correct fineness ratios of all planes with their flaps extended; Winger just likes to whine. Even in the face of an explicit statement from the devs. EDIT: Why do i talk at all astill. I just leave it:P Edited January 22, 2016 by StG2_Winger
