I wonder if the Panther will have its engine lifespan simulated similar to what is currently done for aircraft. Completely destroying it if operated too heavily for too long to discourage players from always using max throttle. ?

 

The thing should flame up after 15 min randomly due to leakage in the gas line and other malfunctions.

33. Daimler M1914 FlaK 77/L27 and Thornycroft J-type 13pdr AA shells appear in the correct place ().

 

I've shot up a fair few but not taken the time to admire them up close. Is this referring to ammunition on the models or bursts in the air?

 

Cheers for the update also. Carry on the good work.

Just played on Combat Box on the new map and things were very smooth. Keep in mind, there were only 6 people on server, but the new map used to stutter for me no matter what. From very limited testing, I can say the MP stutter has improved.

 

Thank you to the dev's for all their hard work!

Considering the final drive only had a lifespan of about 5 hours at full speed that seems generous compared to most of the engine limitations imposed on aircraft...

OMG Panther finally, thanks!!

7 and 8 very welcomed :)

AI keeps getting love too ?

At first look it's much better. But there is only 18 people on the server. Get back from job's, live your wifes and childs. Join the servers, so I can do more test :P

I don't see anything related to the bug concerning AI flight speeds in career mode. ­@=FB=Viks can you tell me if this was fixed this update??

Thanks devs for the work.

Please improve:

1) Long distance smoke effects visibility.

2) Smoke persistence.

3) Improve the airplanes position lights. They are absolutely ridiculously big and bright when seen from far, in daylight and night.

I never had stutters while in blackout?

The Panther is great, t(h)ank you very much! :D

 

Is there any schedule for the quick mission generator for Tank Crew that lets us choose the AI tanks we want to have as opponents and allies?

 

Right now, you can't have most of the tanks specifically made for Tank Crew as AI-controlled enemies or allies in QMB which is a bit of a pity, as these vehicles all look great  and perform excellently.

 

Being able to choose and customize them like aircraft would be superb!

Thanks for the update, guys!

 

On Simshaker - -  are there any additional details? Does it require a separate sound card and some 3rd party software (simshaker aviator?) ?

Posted (edited)

I did a quick test and the stutter was gone ..

Thanks devs

7. Updated texture cache system, it should reduce stutters in heavy load MP missions significantly;

 

Let me clarify this a little bit. We think this will help with online stutters, but further testing with the public build will be key. It seemed to perform pretty well in Beta, but MP Beta testing is not so easy with a smaller group.

 

Jason

 

Thank you very much for this update! Now I can play multiplayer matches again. Now there are only a few stutters in multiplayer.
This update performed a small miracle on my computer. Well done! ?

 

Greetings to the team

Tested the Panther and it's a beast! Very fast velocity cannon and short reloading time. :clapping::hunter:

Thank you for improving the stutters and fps drops in MP missions. 

Did you test it?

Wow!  What a great and unexpected surprise to come home to after a cold, boring, dog-end of a day.

 

Salute Team!!!:salute:

Would love to know more SimShaker support. This is exciting news!

I thank you, more is always better, not always like in case of punishment, but in this game it is. And I thank the dev team for their great and continuous job. More airfields equal more chances to survival.

This game\simulation is phenomenal. Thanks for all your efforts.  :salute:  ?

17. P-51, P-47 and P-39 have correct trimmer animations;

 

what exactly does it mean ?  Have the trims been fine tunned so that we no longer run out of picth trim in landing configuration on some aircraft like the p51 and the p41?

Excellent? Thanks you Devs

Great update. For me as a multiplayer server admin and map maker, this is a 10/10 update. Performance fixes for multiplayer, visual map improvements on Rhineland, and new airfield options so we can build even more missions. Yay!

Trim tabs moved incorrectly - the trim worked correctly but the trim tab operation were reversed. Could be seen most obviously on the rudder if you looked at it

On Andre's Blog simshaker wings is the only software dedicated to IL2 great battles ...

 

But for owners of the Forcefeel / Realteus no compatibility is shown ?

 

Only Simshaker wheels support realteus and simshaker for aviators ( for other flight sims ) 

 

I want simshaker compatibility with Realteus 

 

Andre please ....

Just did a few sorties on a crowded online server. This was the smoothest, stutter-free multiplayer-experience i had in a very long time, even with FPS-Limiter turned off! @Han, @Jason_Williams and your whole team, you did a great job guys! Thank you! ?

Seems it worked!

 

7.

40 players online, Combat box, in VR i always had stutters there especially over the cities with fps drop while taxing on ground.

Now i have stable 79-80fps on ground and in air, stutters gone (barely noticable, maybe had 2-3 over city).

 

8. Plane LODs seems also way better, by miles better!

 

Perfect start for 2020, thank you!

I am probably not alone in this observation, but as I was reading through the list of improvements and saw those very things, most notably the attempt to mitigate performance issues in MP with the Rheinland map, I was immediately struck by the role that CombatBox very likely played in calling attention to the need for that specific improvement.  In hindsight, that'd be expected since CB is arguably the most popular MP server.  Most importantly it demonstrates how the content-development community's efforts are symbiotic with the efforts of the platform development teams.   

 

Well done to both!

Great, can't wait to get into the Panther! Next to the Tiger I my absolute darling!
However, I wonder if the binoculars were also added, or if we still have to wait for it.

Time to re-connect my Simseat me thinks ?.  Excellent news.

 

Can someone from the Dev's give us a little more information about getting it working and what forces to expect ?

I'm definitely looking forward to trying the simshaker interface. until now I've been using a home built shaker driven just by the game sound. I'm hoping this feature will allow better tuning.

I must file a big complaint for DEV's; this afternoon I must start to organize a big closet at home, and now I will be busy until midnight playing! Grrrrrrr! ?

( Thanks you for the update) ??

That's the best solution for stutters. I wish I had tried it before ?

Thank you team, fantastic !

Thanks for the update? Can anyone recommend some Sim Shakers that are compatible? I'd love to purchase one for my cockpit.

Thank you very much Devs!
