[MOD ANNOUNCEMENT] Panzer Aces Mega Mod

[Robert_Molders]

 

 

" Panzer Aces Mega Mod " is a project that aims to regroup together, in a single JSGME ready mod, the major mods available for the game " IL-2 Sturmovik: Tank Crew – Clash at Prokhorovka " made by the various modders of the online IL-2 Great Battles community.

The main intent of the mod is to provide to the members of the Il-2 Great Battles tank community a mod easy to be installed, activated and fun to be played but at the same time, a mod, providing an environment of historical realism, diversity and possibly containing many other interesting new features that I have in mind about this project.

If you have played the game Silent Hunter III the general idea is to create a mod similar to the " Grey Wolves Expansion Mod " ( Known generally with the acronym of " GWX " ).

Not to say that is not my intention at all to " steal " or using in a improper way the mods and the works realised by the talented modders of this community so I'm actually in the process of requesting them the various authorisations and permissions to include their marvellous mods ( or part of them ) into the " Panzer Aces Mega Mod ".

To remark this, that is very important for me, be known to all, already from now, that:

 I do not want to steal the work of anyone, be clear, in any form, circumstance or any possible bad ways and that all the material that will be not directly realised by me, will  have detailed and precise references about his original author and about from where it came from.

Due to this no material will be included in the " Panzer Aces Mega Mod " without the explicit permission of the original author, be clear! 

Once the mod will be ready for the release proper credits will be given to them, be sure about that!

Please note also, already from now, that this mod will not have any kind of commercial use/purpose ( It will be provided for free ).

My only intent is to provide to the " IL-2 Sturmovik: Tank Crew – Clash at Prokhorovka " cnline community and enjoyable mod that could possibly render the life more easy for the new player approaching the game and, at the same time, being interesting and fun to be played by the more experienced ones.

Let's say in brief that this is my small attempt, hopefully successful, to support this community and maybe letting grow the number of new players approaching this amazing game.

Last but not least note that the " Panzer Aces Mega Mod " will be dedicated and focused on the offline aspect of the game for the time being.

 

My sincere and big thanks goes to the modders that have already granted me the permission to use their material and work in this mod, understanding immediately, that my intents are genuine and without any second malicious intent of any sort or kind.

 

I want only to support, as much as possible and at the best of my capabilities, this game and this community!!!

 

Main objectives of the " Panzer Aces Mega Mod " are :

 

• Providing to the IL-2 Tankers community a mod easy to be installed, played and enjoyed
• Regrouping the best mods available around in one single mod
• Providing the maximum possible number of offline campaigns and singles missions
• Providing the maximum possible number of historical tank and crew uniforms skins
• Adding new offline campaigns and single missions expressly dedicated to this mod
• Providing a detailed historical WW2 era environment ( Not to say without any support for any of the ideas, actions or causes of the men or of the political parties active during the WW2 era! )
• Including a detailed set of tutorials and manuals to help the new players, in particular, to get started with the game
• ...and many other projects and ideas that I have in mind and that will be presented later on

 

Please note, that this is just an initial presentation of the work that I intend to do and that the material contained in it could be subject to changes anytime and that the material and the images portrayed here have got only a a representative purpose.

 

In the case someone of our talented modders is interested in collaborating with me in this project, send me a PM and we will discuss it! You're welcome!

 

 

 

My best regards to all the IL-2 Great Battles community and don't forget to let me know your ideas and feedbacks about this idea/project!

Nice, but who decide what are best mods?

I dont want to have big file of missions, campaigns i dont like, same for the skins.

I like work from some of the skiners, not from all of them.

Anyway good luck. Any work for TC is welcome!

Make sure to get the permission of the modders to regroup their work as you plan to publish them in a package. Some might not

being amused with your idea. Just saying...

[Oyster_KAI]

Sure mate that's exactly what I'm doing. No material will be included in the mod without the explicit permission of the original author. I'm in the process of contacting them one by one. If the work is not mine I think that is highly not respectful using the material and the work done by someone without his permission. At least least here is a question of mutual respect among the members of the same community.

Thanks somehow for your suggestion you are very welcome to do so every time you'll think it's the case.

 

Salute!

 Well as mod author of the " Panzer Aces Mega Mod " I will reserve this hard choise to me for the time being. I will also take in consideration, as much as feasible, all the various feedbacks like your trying to get as close as possible to the players preferences. 

A very hard task satisfying everyone, almost impossible IMHO, but I'll try to do my best!

 

Salute and thanks for your feedback and support!

Excellent idea. Do you have a timeline for when it will be available? Looking forward to it, good luck!

[Robert_Molders]

Thanks mate! Yep it will be posted in the next incoming devolpment update that I will report in a couple of days

[Fercyful]

Great idea !! A easy install pack with all integrated is amazing  

[Robert_Molders]

Yep pretty much that's the general idea  Thanks mate! Salute!

[Rustedgun]

I very much look forward to what you come up with.

[Cybermat47]

I'm guessing this mod won't do much for the Soviet tanks and assault guns?

[javelina]

this is awesome! thank you!!!!

The mod will cover both the German side and the Soviet one without any priviledge for one of the sides due to the fact that this mod is dedicated, and it tries to suit, as much as humanly possibles, the likings and the preferences of the community.

 

Salute!

Thanks to you for the support! Very appreciated here, sincerely!

[Danziger]

Well I can tell you right now you can't use any of my TC mods because I haven't made any.

[FTC_Zero]

Sound idea, but maybe some years too early. I still can manage the 2 mods I have installed.

[Robert_Molders]

Sorry if I didn't report recently but I was very busy. Despite this I have not stopped working on this project and, hopefully soon, I'll be able to provide you some news on something that I'm sure you will like a lot...So stay tuned and safe!

 

My best regards to all and, again, many thanks to all the talented modders that are providing their assistance and collaboration in this project and to all the ones that are supporting this idea!

 

Salute!

No

[weaponstefan]

I love this idea. Especially as I am not overly savvy with manually installing mods. It would be great to have more variation and selection in the skins and missions etc. Thanks for taking this on!

[moustache]

hey hello ! just want to know what is the advance of your project?

[moustache]

Mmh, this silence scares me ... @SKG210_Molders?

[SCG_Junkman]

Me too

[Robert_Molders]

Sorry guys I'm back! In the last months I have had to deal with the Coronavirus who struck my family quite hard.

Situation now ok, I'll be fully operational in some days!

 

Salute to all!

[moustache]

Ooh, I'm sorry for you, no worries, we were just coming to the news...
