Game version 2.010 discussion: IL-2-43, New graphics features

[LLv24_Zami]

I am running out of praises 

 

Shimmering is gone, clouds look great in ultra, new hit effects looks absolutely great, best mirrors that I`ve ever seen in game. Everything runs butter smooth at 60fps. Just superb work 

[150GCT_Veltro]

Probably one of the most important update since the release date of this new IL2 serie.

 

Well done guys, and first of all thank you a lot Jason, really.

 

 

[BMA_FlyingShark]

The mirrors look stunning, great work again.

 

Thanks guys.

 

[Basher]

Hot dog! Tacview export....been hoping for that one.

[dburne]

Awesome update!

 

I am running VR with a Rift, PD of 1.6 ,  4x terrain and Ultra settings - and have gained in performance with AF on Sharpen.

It looks so much better, most of the ground shimmering is all but gone - beautiful!

I am maintaining 90 fps for the most part even at very low altitude, ASW only kicking in during heavy combat or on the runway.

Clouds look great!

 

Mirrors - I am sure I am missing something very simple, but I don't seem to have them in my Yak-1b Series 127. Tried it setting mirrors with both simple and complex as well? I had a look in key-mappings, there is not a toggle key for mirrors right?

 

Now I do fly with the HUD GUI hidden for VR for performance reasons, are they reliant on the HUD?

Is that a spitfiremkvb in my Quick Mission selection screen?

For those exited about it, selecting the spit will crash your game!

 

Anyway, nice update. Like the new IL-2 and graphic options and I'm looking forward to test the tweaked damage mechanics.

You need to select mirrors in the loadout screen.

Don't thank me, thank Han and the boys. They do the hard stuff.

Absolutely fantastic, can't wait to try it out after coming home from my office! Thx a lot.

 

Just one question: Some of late 202s were equipped with rear mirrors too. Shall we see them in BoX?

[Lusekofte]

Did not plant to fly BOS today, but I will. Many thanks for your work

[dburne]

You need to select mirrors in the loadout screen.

 

Aha thanks so much! That one would probably have taken me some time to figure out lol.

 

They are looking great, and performance for me it would appear in the Yak-1b with complex mirrors is still very good - nice implementation!

[ram0506]

The new AF-filter for landscape is working great, especially in VR almost no flickering any more. A big step forward.  

The implementation of the mirrors is the best I have seen so far.

For sure, that new filter has gone a long way for the quality of the image in VR for sure!

[216th_Jordan]

Although I have seen it before...

 

Amazing job done! (as almost always)

[=EXPEND=Capt_Yorkshire]

good works devs , i love you and we should make babies

[=AD=uumembwa]

Thx for update

 

Please update available payloads IDs list, with IL2'43 payloads ID's

[Gunsmith86]

Very well done!!!

[Livai]

New graphics features, indeed! Created with hard work, indeed. I hate them! Sorry 

[SYN_Mike77]

You BASTARDS!  I just told my wife I would go out shopping with her.  Now what....

[Requiem]

Haven't been able to look at the forums for a few weeks and I see today Tacview is on the update list. Brilliant! :D

[=EXPEND=Tripwire]

Was playing the game fine, but then experienced a game crash following joining a different server (which also used to happen in 2.009) but now get an error when attempting to login -

 

#10027: Packed data verification fail. Please restore original packed data files

 

Any ideas?

[Avyx]

What is actually IL-2 Sturmovik mod. 1943 ?

[SYN_Mike77]

speaking of the new IL-2, how do you get the flaps to take off setting?

[216th_Jordan]

New graphics features, indeed! Created with hard work, indeed. I hate them! Sorry

Are you in any case on an AMD Radeon? If so, have you installed the latest driver?

[=EXPEND=Tripwire]

Ran the launcher, the game client is now downloading another 115mb

[216th_Jordan]

speaking of the new IL-2, how do you get the flaps to take off setting?

From Update announcement:

Pneumatic flaps system allows extending the flaps to middle (take-off) position only from the fully retracted position. From the middle position, the flaps can be only retracted (Shift-F be default). Press the flaps release button (F key by default) and hold it to move the flaps from retracted to takeoff position. To extend the flaps from retracted to landing position, press F briefly.

We just got a speedy new update probably to hide that Spit you were talking about. I missed it in the first version of the patch.

 

I wonder if choosing it for AI to fly would crash the game also or would we be able to see the model at least.

 

Anyways, next month we will get it. Looking forward to that

[NoMoreSteam]

Big performance hit on my machine, some 20-40fps less.

But tree shadows are not blinking indeed.

[9./JG27DavidRed]

mh it just downloaded another small update...anybody any idea whats that about?

[Jason_Williams]

Just a small hotfix to fix some small issues.

 

Jason

[=gRiJ=Alado]

[=EXPEND=Capt_Yorkshire]

I had the same message. It is because of the hotfix. After restarting the launcher and downloading the hotfix the game will run.

[Psyrion]

The hit effects really do look alot better now. The forest shimmering is nearly gone and the shadows make the trees look more 3 dimensional. 

[smink1701]

Han, great update.  Looks amazing and bullet hits are very cool.

[Voidhunger]

hotfix?

yeah , there was flyable Spitfire . Beautiful model. Im happy that I tried it before it was hotfixed

[71st_AH_Mastiff]

This is the very reason I pushed and pushed my squadron to stick with this new version! The history with ROF gave me all the reason to have faith and full trust in Jason and Hans and Sneaksie 1C Games, to bring IL2 back to our hearts.

 

Thank you IL2 Sturmovik Tream 777Studios and 1CGames!!

Mastiff

 

Onwards and upwards!
