[Bearcat]

The long awaited 4.13 patch from TD for  IL2 1946 has been released.. :clapping:

 

Patch 4.13 for IL2 1946

[sallee]

Brilliant. Thanks for the heads up.

[ST_ami7b5]

Great!

[Chuck_Owl]

Is there a place where I can download an all-in-one patch or something and install it from a vanilla Steam version?

 

I have been looking for a post with all patches linked, but most of the stuff I find has dead links.

Here ya go Chuck.. I have not tried it but I hear it works.. make a backup of course.. and then just patch to 4.13.

New Britain and New Guinea for "quick flight"? Yay!

Thank you very much for the link.

Oh dear. I can't get it to start now! Was fine with the last update...

ZOMFG... That B-24... I'm sold.

Thanks for the news - I've been wishing I could do some more carrier operations, especially since watching the Wildcats and Helldivers fly over the Potomac during the VE day celebrations last month, and this may give me the nudge to put IL-2 back on my PC.  That B-24 does look tempting, too - saw some of them fly over D.C. last month too - just amazing.

[Feathered_IV]

Fantastic stuff.  Should be a fun weekend adding the latest modact and installing all my favourite mods.  Couldn't be happier. 

[Luger1969]

Hi guys. Can anyone tell me what the content of 4.13 is. I have 4.12 installed with all fm+- 40 mods. To figure it out running properly and every full install is another 2 days with the mod enabler running. I guess the question is should i do 4.13 + or wait with 4.12 till most of the usual mods are out. Thanks Andre

[Willy__]

Yeah, it would be nice to have some change log and information about compatibily of the mods. It would take ages for me to reinstall everything again.... for the Nth time.

I just figured out how to get SweetFX/Reshade working in Il-2 under openGL.  Previously it only worked with the old directX 8

 

Haven't had time to devise some preferred settings yet, but here's how I managed it.

Go here: http://reshade.me/#download
Download, Reshade 0.19.0 and extract the "ReShade32.dll" file and rename it to "opengl32.dll" This goes in your main 1946 folder

Now download "Reshade + SweetFX 2.0" and extract Reshade.fx, Sweet.fx and the SweetFX folder and put these in your main 1946 folder too.

You can now enable all the graphical tweaks of SweetFX by making the appropriate changes to the SweetFX_settings.txt file.  Special Reshade presets seem to work too.

Sorry it's not a winning screenshot. Still got to fiddle around with the settings, but you get the general idea.

I wish Sita could be convinced to build a Po-2/U-2 for BoS. I wonder how difficult it would be to rework his new model to BoS standards.

yep, exactly. but his answer from last page - @для ила это " просто в изготовлении" ... бзс/бзм сильно другой уровень ... не уверен что потяну .. по этому и не рвусь . увы ...@

[Sita]

 I wonder how difficult it would be to rework his new model to BoS standards.

 

it's must be made from scratch ....

[Juri_JS]

it's must be made from scratch ....

What do you think how much more time it would take to create a plane model, like the U-2, in BoS compared to Il-2 1946?

[Sita]

in light of the fact that I don't know how  to making model for  BZS quality  and  i must learn that ... plus for BZS as far i understand  person who want  made  a plane  must  make  external model   and pit at once ...  it  think   it can take more the year for me ...  one  and half  may be ...  

 

for that time i can make alot  thing  for  il2 1946 ... so  for now  i'm not sure it that way of events

By the way, is there any news on the 4.13.1 bug fix patch? I would like to see my Japanese regiments lists corrected.

[Sita]

work in progress ...

I reinstalled and patched up IL2 '46 two weeks ago. I love the variety available, and so much has been added by Team Daidalos. I just wonder why they haven't upgraded the ground textures much. Some of the maps are still nearly that bright green smooth billiard-table look, and the Pacific maps are a real shame. Are there any plans to boost these? I'd like to fly just stock IL2 but it's the maps that are making me think about the modded versions again.

[Juri_JS]

Someone was working on better ground textures, but as far as I know the project was never finished. The screenshots I've seen of the new textures looked very good.
