when is the last time you updated? if you haven't updated in awhile then you need to delete all il2 Bos folders and files and re-down load and install.

I have the very same problem.

Reinstalling patiently... :sleep:

O what a dreadful disappointment.....

 

 

Yessssssssssssss! :biggrin:

The right decision like so many already said before me and a fair trade in, NP & thx anyway.

No MP - no problem.  We've got the Yak to fly and we can always discuss politics Steak and Blow jobs! :salute:

Good job!

As usual  :)

 

LOL!

I got a penalty for firing at friendly AA which is/was my way to practice shooting.

Thanks for being upfront about problems.

 

Would prefer it is correct rather than rushed and as with most things in life, being kept informed goes a long, long, way to making it easier to understand and support your decisions.

Thank you for making this decision.

Don't worry, guys!

I'm more delighted than sorry that you CAN make tough decisions when the situation arise just to make us a superb product.

We are spoilt anyway so don't worry about us! :-)

She seems perfectly balanced, and a fine aerobat - I was doing tailslides on my first flight, oblivious to the flak. Landings need work (oops!) but otherwise a dream.

Yak is absolutely Amazing even if it's a WIP, a real pleasure to fly.

It was a good desition. It's not good to fix a bug and send it to the world with just a few tests.

What a great ride!!!

Any suggestions about correct handling and range of  Manifoldpressure and RPM??

Better for you guys to be 100% happy with MP otherwise you'll get the inevitable negative whining if there's the slightest issue. Unfotunately some people only remember the 'bad' things and considering some of the posts about a 41% alpha it's best not to give them any ammunition.

 

Yak is great news, in fact it should have been released a week before MP purely to give Yak drivers time to acclimatise and get proficient with their mount before going head to head with the guys who have enjoyed the 109 for a few months.

 

Releasing MP and only giving the reds the LaGG to fight in would leave a bad impression of MP to some people who wouldn't take into account the massive advantage the 109 has in a 1v1 fight.

 

Really looking forwards to getting in the Yak and dealing out some hurt... ^^

I have to agree here.  I always thought it was a... questionable idea to release MP to such an unbalanced plane set.  This makes a lot more sense.

 

Now I won't feel so bad destroying so many Russian aircraft next week...

Better to get it right from the off. Again, it's nice to see communication and honesty from a developer!. Thanks for the yak1!!!

 Idem.

I give up. I don't know what it is with this new launcher. The old one might not have looked as pretty but it worked fine. Deleting the Rus sound file didn't work for me last week but deleting the entire audio folder did. This week even that doesn't work. Every week "FAILED TO UPDATE". Also the new launcher won't even shut down properly unless you shut down the launcher.exe process in task manager. How about fixing the launcher for the next update?

Posted (edited)

Well here I go again right off the bat, just tried the Yak 1 dogfight mission,  crash to deskop with the IL-2.exe has stopped working message, same thing I have been getting for the third weekend in a row for me. This just started on me with the new launcher/build update where we deleted the sim and re-downloaded the new one...  I may give this weekend a pass.

Have fun guys,

Very excited to see be able to fly the Yak-1... I love all of the planes (don't really have a preference!) I don’t care much for MP anyway; I am a hardcore "Offline" simmer!!! Enjoying a good flight simulation is what I look forward to; not racking up kills to inflate my ego.

Virtually the same as the LaGG. Same engine, same prop. Cooling might be a bit different though, I seem to remember reading that early Yaks was more difficult to keep cool.

You dont have to be worried nor to justify the team's decisions and changes to the roadmap.

We, as beta buyers, have enjoyed the privilege to play BoS earlier and we also have to deal with sudden unforeseen difficulties.

Nothing is promised ore owed since this is not the commercial release yet, nothing is granted, that's early access.

I will enjoy Yak 1 maybe later tonight

 

Thnk you

Get yer hands off. I saw her first....

 

Ooohh she's lovely.

Wise decision, guys.

Better a working MP later than a broken one now!

 

Yak-1 is a nice way to get us occupied while waiting, isn't it ?

 

 

 

Keep it up.

S!

Okay I'm calmed down :)

Keep up the good work :biggrin: i'm still having too much fun in the Stuka to even look at the Yak.

Posted

The Yak is lovely, first landing ok, but forgot about the keen brakes we were told about. Hit the prop on the runway.

 

Now more careful with brake application.

 

Like it lots.

 

Also the new target marker is less visible, much better.  I've really enjoyed these last few updates, great job guys. :biggrin:  :salute:

Have fun guys,

Burnette: I had a similar issue during the last 2 weeks. I think I solved it (not sure, but no crash for now) by deleting everything in my records/tracks folder in the game directory. Previous corrupted replay files tend to make the game crash when you finish a mission because corrupted files are unreadable. My theory, for whatever it's worth...

Thanks for that, just took a look and my tracks folder at least is empty, not sure I see a records folder...
