Official list of versions

[343KKT_Kintaro]

Hi all.

 

Please, do you know if there are two distinct lines of versions and patches, one for the original 2011 "Cliffs of Dover" and another series of patches for "Blitz"?

 

Or, on the contrary, is there only one direct line of versions since the very beginning, in early 2011?

 

I found mentions on patches 4.5, 4.54, 4.56, 5.0... what is each for?

The original Game, IL-2 STURMOVIK CLIFFS OF DOVER was patched up through the number "2.0" series by the original developers.

 

The TEAM FUSION unofficial mod was patched from "3.0" up to "4.312".

 

The new official 1C version, IL-2 STURMOVIK CLIFFS OF DOVER - BLITZ was patch "4.5", and since has continued up to the current "4.57".

 

Any further patches to BLITZ will be numbers between 4.58 and 4.99.

 

"TF 5.0" is the unofficial name for the new North African Desert Tobruk Module... whose official name has not yet been released.

 

It will be released as version "5.0".

 

It will be patched from 5.1 onwards.

 

The only thing players really need to know:

There currently is only one game which 1C and TF recommends players install...  IL-2 STURMOVIK CLIFFS OF DOVER - BLITZ... and it is automatically updated from Steam... whether you buy it from Steam or whether you bought the original game... anyone who owns the original game gets BLITZ for free.

Thank you! That really answered my question : only one line of versions and patches since March 2011.

When I log in my Steam account I always see both links, one allowing the launch of "Cliffs of Dover" and another link that launches "Cliffs of Dover - BLITZ". I never tried to launch the one that is not BLITZ, mainly because of the bugs I saw back in 2011 (bad memories indeed).

 

A) What would happen if I ignore BLITZ and I launch the first game?

 

B) Where can I find the complete list of versions and patches, from CloDo's release in 2011 to the current version of the game?

A) Steam install and update CloD up to Team Fusion patch 4.312.

 

B) Probable no one record this seqsuence due the fiasco original developer patches - that fix one thing, broken two, and when give up have irremediable broken some important features, like roads.

 

But if you really want I suggest dig in Bananas'drama forum, as far I remember are 3 or 4 official patch - including the last one official  was more a rollback for two previous patches.

Thank you Sokol!

 

You said "Bananas'drama"... Was this a touch of humour? Or, on the contrary, is this the official name of that forum?

 

What about those roads? is the problem resolved in the current "Blitz" version?

"What about those roads? is the problem resolved in the current "Blitz" version?"

 

Please forget the above question. Obviously the answer is "no" as Sokol1 clearly stated that the problem developed in "original developer patches", which are no longer operational.
