It was a very interesting year for us, it brought many new, but long-awaited changes and improvements to the project. ................................ For the main project, Bodenplatte, we're working on several new aircraft at once. Having completed the implementation of the air compressibility and significant improvements to the damage model (they are already in the public version of the sim), our Lead Engineer is creating the physical model of the jet engine for Me 262. Of course, this work opens up the possibility to widen our aircraft pool in the future. ................................ Our partner Ugra Media makes the new WWI aircraft for Flying Circus - Fokker D.VII, Fokker D.IIF and Sopwith Dolphin. They'll start the work on the Arras area map (1918) soon. The new tanks for Tank Crew that are being made by our partner Digital Forms are more than half complete already: M4A2, T-34 mod. 1943, PzKpfw IV Ausf.G and PzKpfw III Ausf.M. Meanwhile, we're making the map of the southern part of the Kursk salient ourselves. ................................ The detailed buildings tech that includes higher detailed 3D models and the physics of their destruction is nearly finished and we had a bit of time to make this short video for you: ................................ To complete this Dev Diary, we'd like to show you some screenshots. First, here is the finished Fw 190 D-9 cockpit. Also, the community enthusiast Martin =ICDP= Catney upped default and official P-47 skins to 4K quality: ................................ Full news - here is a full text and visual materials 12 8 3
Juri_JS Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Is that the EZ 42 gunsight I see in the Fw-190D? 1
ROCKET_KNUT Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Thank you and everybody involved for the great work and this update. Looking forward to 2019!
smink1701 Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 First one in! Nice way to end the year!!!
hedger72 Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Looking STUNNING! Many thanks to the entire dev team and all the best in 2019!
Nightrise Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 I'm hyped for what next year is gonna bring
Chief_Mouser Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Excellent once again. Happy New Year to all!
150GCT_Veltro Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Amazing, and Tank Crew does look terrific. Great work guys. 1
SYN_Mike77 Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 When that tank came busting through the shack I literally jumped out of my seat! 1
No_85_Gramps Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Man o man, 2019 is sure shaping up. Great work by the developers!
sevenless Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 (edited) Thank you. Great to see the bulged version. Edited December 28, 2018 by sevenless 4 2
=FEW=Hauggy Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 (edited) Everything looks great! Thanks to the guy who took the time to improve the P-47 skins! 4K is a must!!! I really hope next year bring us a reduction in the current insane multiplayer lag on full or near full server. It wasn't nearly that bad before but then updates came and everything started "working as intended" lol. Edited December 28, 2018 by =FEW=Hauggy 1
Asgar Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 2018 was a fantastic year for the sim. Thank you for all the hard work you're putting in to make this game better with every single patch. Have a great new year! 6
Jade_Monkey Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Looking mighty fine!! Tank crew will be a lot of fun, no doubt. I look forward to the crew models being implemeted in the tanks! Destructible environments will add a lot to close quarters combat. Regarding the Dora, looks wonderful. Im curious about the history of that red underside. I read a bit about who did it but does not explain why they chose such a bright color. Finally, the P47 deserves to have defaukt 4K skins, so thanks a lot ICDP for bringing them up to the detail level they deserve. Happy holidays and happy new year to everyone, especially the dev team!!! 1
Elem Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 You guys are truly incredible! Have a restful New Years Eve. You've earned it.

To offer an answer to @Jade_Monkey the undersides were painted bright red for a special "Protection Flight" that covered the take offs for the ME262 Jet. The undersides were painted bright so that the home AAA knew not to shoot them, a recognition type of thing. I'm sure someone more knowledgable than me can give a more in depth explanation. Kind Regards, MDS1 2
357th_Dog Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Hopefully the Dora arrives next month...it's such a pretty plane 2
EpeeNoire Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 (edited) the D-9 is looking absolutely fantastic - can't wait to fly it! 21 minutes ago, Jade_Monkey said: Regarding the Dora, looks wonderful.

Kind Regards, MDS1 you're right, the JV44 was also called "Papageienstaffel" (Parrot Squadron) due to the extraordinarily paint bellys of their D-9s and D-11s. if I am not mistaken, some of these fancy paint FWs were also used to defend important infrastructure, such as railways and production sites, even Edited December 28, 2018 by EpeeNoire 2

rowdyb00t Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 We’ll we be able to see our crew body and pilot body soon as an option? Thanks for the update and happy new year!
40plus Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Excellent year! Happy New year to all of you.
SCG_Fenris_Wolf Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 I'm so looking forward to the Dora ?
NO_SQDeriku777 Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Will the new Air Marshall feature be sharing interface/technology from the tank commander/platoon commander feature from Tank Crew to allow for combined arms action? 1
BP_Lizard Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Great update! Thanks for all the hard work. I’m really looking forward to Tank Crew’s development. That video was amazing!
ShamrockOneFive Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to the 1CGS team! Great way to end the year with an update covering the whole scale of development. I have to pinch myself and remember that these destructible buildings are a feature in a flight sim title rather than a FPS game or something "more dedicated" to the ground experience. That it can be made to work plus have that wider scale of combat in the air across a 100km x 100km map is just impressive to me. Also, that D-9 is gorgeous! Well done folks! 1
Nil Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Wow! the new damage model for buildings is beyond my expectations! What a fantastic work you have done! Finally we can satisfy our destruction impulse! Thank you so much for what you have done and what you are doing. You are such a fantastic team. Have a wonderful new eve, and all the best for 2019 and beyond!
SYN_Haashashin Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Hi all, I guess I would have to start to strictly apply the rules when talking about this topics. Third time in a row that people start posting totally unrelated stuff. These are DD topics, not general discussions ones so discuss the DD or I will delete your post. Haash 1 1
sevenless Posted December 28, 2018 Posted December 28, 2018 Quick remark on the paintshop of planes of the "Sachsenberg Schwarm" According to "Doras of the Galland Circus" by Jerry Crandall the planes (all four, red 1, 3, 4 and 13) looked like this from beneath: 2
