Bearcat Posted May 26, 2015 Posted May 26, 2015 Mechy was probably referring to SEOW which is still alive and working with IL-2 1946. This is not a game mod. Rather it is an add-on that provides a detailed campaign system around a series of sequential (in time) coops that involve air, sea and ground actions generated by human orders. It presently supports over 90 IL-2 1946 maps. As an aside, the new development in SEOW now is focusing on adding Arma2 (Iron Front) into SEOW, so campaign missions can be played either in IL-2 (as a pilot) or in Iron Front (as a soldier) or both games, allowing players a greater range of sim experience as the campaign progresses. Cheers, 4Shades Wasn't that where HSFX came from?
SharpeXB Posted May 26, 2015 Posted May 26, 2015 well niche doesn't mean they ain't making money. You say that like it's a bad thing. What about the problems and missing pieces in BOS? What missing pieces? There are more seasonal maps coming which won't be an extra cost but afaik BoS is nearly complete with content. Time to move on to another theater. There will certainly be more content created for BoS but I expect much of that will come from 3rd parties.

4Shades Posted May 26, 2015 Posted May 26, 2015 OT WARNING Wasn't that where HSFX came from? SEOW had its origins in RAF74 Virtual Squadron around 2003. After a couple of years SEOW established its own identity and became more widely used in the IL-2 community. This was in the pre-modded days of IL-2. Then the first unauthorised mod of IL-2 came along (the "sound mod"). Subsequently several different mod packs became popular, and 242 Squadron decided to compile their own mod pack, called "History Sound Effects", or HSFX for short, focusing on realism and historical pilot immersion. The 242Sqn guys also liked SEOW-style campaigning and developed several code extensions for HSFX to add value to persistent campaigning. The SEOW team heard about this and in the 7 years since there has been continuous cross-fertilisation of ideas and functionality between HSFX and SEOW, and even some feedback into Team Daidalos. HSFX brands itself as SEOW-compliant, and SEOW has a number of optional extensions that rely on specialised HSFX code features. But SEOW and HSFX can operate perfectly well independently of each other. Cheers, 4S
1CGS LukeFF Posted May 26, 2015 1CGS Posted May 26, 2015 And Bearcat, I don't care what you say, by moving this post to here it became quiet and out of the eyes of the casual forum browser. 40+ replies to your topic is what you call "quiet"?
Mechy Posted May 27, 2015 Author Posted May 27, 2015 Wow, good point Luke.... you just had to come here to point that out ...... hmmmm but, how many do you think it would have if it was still in the General Discussion forum.
BraveSirRobin Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 Good point, it probably would have turned into the flamefest that you were hoping for...
Mechy Posted May 28, 2015 Author Posted May 28, 2015 Good point, it probably would have turned into the flamefest that you were hoping for... Nope ...... wasn't looking for no flame fest. Have better things to do. Flamefest are started by smart mouth's that don't have anything constructive to add. Like yourself. The point I was making is that this has all been done before. Do you think the first Il-2 game was harder to make or do you think this one was. Or how about the 2nd one? Or any of the add on's. I'm sure they have all had their challenges but I would have liked to seen a little more effort put into making this a strong sim, instead of just another game with WWII planes. A weak multiplayer setup. A single mission builder that many times just makes no sense. No ongoing campaign. No coop play. Should I keep going?
BraveSirRobin Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 (edited) Doesn't seem like the developers have learned anything from the past. That is absolutely someone looking to start a flamefest. Edited May 28, 2015 by BraveSirRobin 3

I am just curious BSR, How is it that you can read everyone's mind and decipher the intent of there posts? You just go from thread to thread telling everyone what someone really meant when they made their post. Do you ever contribute anything except this abusive stalking around here? Really I am curious, would you mind sharing one constructive thread or post that you have made that doesn't try to belittle or insult someone? Seriously, please provide a link if you can. I am doubtful, but maybe you can prove my hunch wrong? How about it? S!Blade<>< 3

BraveSirRobin Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 Get a life. Considering the time you have spent whining here and on SimHQ about a game you don't like, you might consider buying some mirrors. BTW, I have been very critical of the unlock design they used for this game. or criticizes your precious BOS. Get a life. S!Blade<><
Bearcat Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 OK guys... Let's all just settle down and take the personal banter to a PM if you must.
