EAF19_Marsh Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 My immediate reaction was to think that the graphics matter less than the content...
DD_Arthur Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 I know......4.13 is not too far off either
71st_AH_Mastiff Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 is it looks like CLOD engine with DX11 man my eyes are getting real bad...
352nd_Wheels Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 I know......4.13 is not too far off either Definitely will be cool when it does get released. Wheels

Danziger Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Just itching for some news on BoM. Can't wait to see the MiG-3!
Danziger Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 The thing I never understood about the MiG-3 is why no cannon through the propeller like every other Soviet fighter?
Siipiorava Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) The thing I never understood about the MiG-3 is why no cannon through the propeller like every other Soviet fighter? Maybe the Mikulin engine the MiG used, instead of the Klimov the Yaks and LaGGs used, didn't allow for installation of cannon? Edited March 12, 2015 by Siipiorava
Danziger Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 I always wondered what the MiG would be like with a vya-23 in the propeller and twin shvaks in the nose. Maybe with some rockets also. If it were me, I would've put the shkas in the wings and the ubs in the nose on the early versions. Less weight and recoil in the wing pods.
ScotsmanFlyingscotsman Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Just a thought, could have been that they used what was nearest? I.E. Save time get it out, get to the fancy stuff later, then decided 'It'll do"
CBAPHOI Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Maybe the Mikulin engine the MiG used, instead of the Klimov the Yaks and LaGGs used, didn't allow for installation of cannon? You're right. The Russian wiki says: "Недостатком МиГ-1 и МиГ-3 была невозможность установки пушки в развале блока цилиндров двигателя, вызванная конструкцией микулинских моторов." Which means exactly what you said.
Trooper117 Posted March 16, 2015 Posted March 16, 2015 Il2 just keeps getting better! Still on my hard drive, now with CUP!
Danziger Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 I can't wait to see some MiG-3 pics in the cosy reading room...
Brano Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 You're right. The Russian wiki says: "Недостатком МиГ-1 и МиГ-3 была невозможность установки пушки в развале блока цилиндров двигателя, вызванная конструкцией микулинских моторов." Which means exactly what you said. Klimov engines were derivates of Hispanu-Suiza 12Y engines,which were developed on purpose as "moteur-canon" = engine which allows installation of canon calibre gun to be placed inbetween V of engine cylinders and shoot thru propellor hub.In France it was implemented in Morane Sauliner MS406 and Dewoitine D520 fighters (most known fighters) Mikulin engines were not.Originaly developed from AM-34FRN engine to power bombers.Polikarpow (original designer of I-200=MiG-1 prototype) chose mikulin engine for 2 practical reasons. 1.Klimov engines were allready "booked" by Yakovlev and Lavochkins OKBs 2.Mikulin engine was high altitude performance type and original I-200 designation was that for high altitude fighter.
Danziger Posted May 14, 2015 Posted May 14, 2015 Here's hoping for some MiG-3 pics in tomorrow's dev diary
1CGS LukeFF Posted May 15, 2015 1CGS Posted May 15, 2015 Here's hoping for some MiG-3 pics in tomorrow's dev diary This is not the BoM under development by 1CGS.
Lusekofte Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 I personally would uninstall CLOD and BOS and BOM before I uninstall 1946, it is the only offline cfs available worth doing. But luckily today there are space available for all
ST_ami7b5 Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 +1 1946 still rules as for the offline experience/enjoyment
Feathered_IV Posted May 17, 2015 Posted May 17, 2015 +1 1946 still rules as for the offline experience/enjoyment Thats true. Although I became tired of 1946's fairly limited scope in 2007 and began hoping someone with a bit of vision would come along take it to the next level. I never imagined that every developer after that would loose the art so completely.
Silavite Posted May 23, 2015 Posted May 23, 2015 (edited) Thats true. Although I became tired of 1946's fairly limited scope in 2007 and began hoping someone with a bit of vision would come along take it to the next level. I never imagined that every developer after that would loose the art so completely. I wish we could have another 1946-esque sim. Use a new engine, make a dozen or so averagely detailed maps and updated flight models from 1946. Heck, even if we could have a 1946-esque sim with only 5 maps and 10 planes per nation, as long as the community would be given free reign to mod, it would fill up with content at a spectacular rate. I still play 1946 on hyperlobby and talk with plenty of guys who love 1946 and like to mod it, but just want some kind of update. The audience for another large-scale (theatre/time wise) average/low detail sim is still there, and they are just waiting. I hope they aren't waiting in vain. Edited May 23, 2015 by Silavite 1
