tattywelshie Posted September 30 Posted September 30 Wow, that was unexpected! Thanks very much guys 👍👍 1
T24_Martin Posted September 30 Posted September 30 (edited) Excellent news! Edited September 30 by T24_Martin 1
TheWidowMaker Posted September 30 Posted September 30 (edited) Okay so I'm new to IL2 (literally bought it a week ago) and I don't see where to download the update. Can someone help me please? I have the standalone version Edited September 30 by TheWidowMaker
BMA_FlyingShark Posted September 30 Posted September 30 Just start the launcher, the game will auto load and update. Have a nice day.
Azdack Posted September 30 Posted September 30 Since this update by playing a mission I suddenly have black screen and back on desk’screen…have you this issue? Thanks for answer.
tattywelshie Posted September 30 Posted September 30 Interested to know what’s the main difference between the 109 E4 and E7?

Monksilver Posted September 30 Posted September 30 (edited) After the update I'm finding that when I start a mission in an existing FC career the flight lasts a few seconds and then IL2 crashes to desk top. Happened 4 times so far. Anyone else getting this? No had a CTD on a AQMB on the Western Front map. Restarted PC and damn CTD happened about 3 seconds into a career flight again. Mission report attached. For now all I can fly are the basic quick missions, everything else is broken. missionReport(2025-09-30_20-48-33)[0].txt Edited September 30 by Monksilver
Jackfraser24 Posted September 30 Posted September 30 Very good! Can't wait to fly the Bf-109 E-4 and the Ju-87 D-5. 1

technic Posted September 30 Posted September 30 When start quick mission with Bf-109E or Ju-87D-5, no skins were offered to choose, just some random skin appears. What do I do wrong?

I./JG52_Woutwocampe Posted September 30 Posted September 30 Something weird happened to me yesterday before the patch was uploaded, when I launched the game. -game started in window mode instead of full screen -label colors changed, it went to player =blue instead of USSR = red -many other graphical changes (lower resolution for instance) -mods were deactivated I had to go fix all these sudden changes manually yesterday. Could this be related to the patch somehow? Thanks for the new patch btw! 1
JG4_Moltke1871 Posted September 30 Posted September 30 (edited) About the handle for the Stuka‘s oil cooler shutter: in the D5 it works correctly it’s open when the leveller set to „Auf“/ open 100% Thats correctly -in the D3 it’s closed when the leveller is set to „Auf/open“ 0% Thats wrong 👉🏻 The direction for the oil cooler leveller in the Ju 87 D3 still needs to be reversed!! 😉 Edited September 30 by JG4_Moltke1871

AeroCrab Posted October 1 Posted October 1 (edited) The attached Flying Circus mission also crashes consistently, with or without mods enabled. Take off and fly to the first ("Take off") waypoint and begin the turn towards the next one. Shortly after that, it has crashed three times out of three. Flying in VR, using a FFB joystick and motion rig. The mission was generated by a modified version of PWCG. I only ran the mission after updating to 6.003, so I can't claim it wouldn't have crashed before, but since other folks are seeing similar things... Also, the call stack in the crash dump is il2.exe as far as the eye can see. Unfortunately, even 7zipped it is more than 5MB. FC_6003_Crash.7zip Edited October 1 by AeroCrab

Was reading an article on Wick, interesting character, was highly sceptical about his claims. Still, lovely screenshot 👍
technic Posted October 1 Posted October 1 Just to add to my previous post, regarding the skins - It seems to me, that the window "Bf-109E-4" (or whatever aircraft I choose), where you used to add or modify markings or change skin of aircraft you choose, is not working anymore. Is that intentional ?

ITAF_Rani Posted October 1 Posted October 1 Fixed a slight decrease in sound volume caused by the sound libraries in the previous update being exported in stereo format instead of 5.1; Hi, the sound in the cockpit seems to me more loud, is this the reason?
Sandmarken Posted October 1 Posted October 1 Will the 109E4 eventually get the ability to have more correct markings for Romanian squadrons? This already happend with the i153 and hurricane for the Finish air force since they will be represented in the Karelia map. The ju87D is great! Will we be able to fly it in for example the kuban map?
Alexmarine Posted October 1 Posted October 1 8 minutes ago, Sandmarken said: The ju87D is great! Will we be able to fly it in for example the kuban map? D-5 was reaching units only by September 1943, don’t think it will appear there On the other hand it will appear for Odessa 1944 career in bomber and tank hunter role and in the Rheine career as a night bomber 1

Thanks to the Spitfire MKIa/MKIIa skin by Off_Winters with INVISIBLE 20MM CANNONS we are from my point of view now in the situation to create at least acceptable Spitfire BoB missions. In my BoB mod and the related Easy Mission Generator Mod the mentioned skin is combined with a weapon mod (only machine gun sound and reduced rate of fire of the 20mm cannons => all weapons with ammo for ca. 18seconds continious auto fire) Edited October 1 by kraut1 1
sevenless Posted October 1 Posted October 1 31 minutes ago, Sandmarken said: The ju87D is great! Will we be able to fly it in for example the kuban map? It was build beginning 09/1943, so "no" to Kuban, but "yes" to Odessa and Rhineland. Now we only need the B2/R2 to have the Stuka available in 1941 Leningrad, Moscow and Odessa careers. A non flyable AI version will do for me personally to avoid workload on the devs. Would prefer tho have that bird flyable though. 5

Yes, after 6.002 the sound became noticeably quieter. This is just a fix for that mistake 2
