C.U.P. Module-03 World at War PART-08
*************************************
INSTALL PART-08 - UnRAR/UnZIP direct to main Il2 directory, overwrite when prompted:
(https://www.mediafire.com/convkey/7197/fus6iubro85j96g6g.jpg)
World at War (WAW) is likely to remain the largest C.U.P. Module because of the sheer scope of the period covered. Part Eight adds many new aircraft and 3DFX enhancements. Aircraft mods continue to be rigorously tested before compression to SFS format. A lot of updates and addons are included here:
As an uncompressed TFM-Type upload, this set would have been several Gb's in size! The C.U.P. Install saves over 75% on filesize. This has wide implications over disc space saved, stability, improved loading times and performance.
This set provides new WAW46/47/48/49.SFS files, comprising the latest bf109 improvements from PA_Jeronimo's team, several more QMB Missions and more of the previously 'missing' aircraft as we continue to upgrade 412. WAW Pt08 also contains the latest #WAW folder, as the WAW Module continues to grow with more 412 mods, rated and tested.

IL2 SERIES SPINNERS
Massive improvement for the Il2 Sturmovic Series.
IMPROVED I-16 COCKPITS
More of PA_Jeronimo's incredible mesh improvements.
IMPROVED BF109 MESHES
Featuring PA_Jeronimo's 109 3D-Fixes including the development of Japancat's improved Wing Root meshes for the F, G and K models. - Added to a new WAW46.SFS.
TROPICAL FILTERS - BF109-F2/F4/G2/G6
Tropical Filters are not usually visible in the QMB Preview window but they are there. In cases where users believe they are missing filters from their C.U.P. mission setup be aware this is a map 'Load.ini' issue.
Desert maps simply require the line:
[WORLDPOS]
CAMOUFLAGE = DESERT
Most appropriate maps in CUP are already modified in this way. For example: included is a new set of CUP QMB Missions for Redko's Sands of Time map which works fine. - Look for 'Sands of TimeR'

OPEN CANOPY MODS by GUZKNIFE
Open Canopy Mods, now with new 2015 Mods
https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,5882.72.html
At last the P-51D has an opening canopy! Effects are internal and external. The other P-51 variants also work with an external effect only. GUZKNIFE has also provided the Bf110 (external effect only), Me262 (mixture, some have both some are external effects only), the A-20 and the I-185 (external effect only).
The CUP-Mustangs now sport a stack of refinements, with new cockpit textures, new meshes, new 3DFX, new hydraulic effects and now the opening canopy. I recommend you get over to RDDR's Hangar to skin these beauties, look for the 352nd FG BODNEY RE VISITED and the SUN SETTERS 45th and 506th FG's IWO JIMA 44/45 - http://www.hangar19.net/rddrs-hangar.html

Great! Thanks Monty! The latest Cowlings&Props fix version especially. Going to do that tonight.
If I may suggest something, I think several French planes would be welcome for the next update, like the D520, the MB152 and the LeO451. Those would allow us (guys who are not really comfortable with adding planes) to play a bunch of Poltava's campaigns.
Tooslow has added all of those available (as far as I could find) to his 3 adders: MB152, D520, CR714, LeO451, MB174 and Potez63X family (franken model but nicely made according to me). I hope they will find their way in your next updates.
Anyways, thanks a lot for your work. I now play only on CUP (I even stopped playing other PC games as it has renewed my interest in IL2 altogether...).
-
Thanks, as always, Monty for your passion for all things IL2.
-
Fantastic, thank you Monty!
-
This is a great service you're providing, Monty, and crew. I can only imagine the work involved in putting all this together As far as I can tell, it's magic. My thanks for your industry and generosity.

Yes we have to do that and fully convert Poltava's campaigns to CUP and a bunch of mine too. We have a few more things in the pipeline there and will get a new missions/campaigns thread up when that's ready.
-
Thanks for taking the time to answer, Simon. It was just a friendly, "my-2-cents", remark.
I'm already having a blast playing with my current CUP version (found a couple of nice campaigns which already seem to work fine with the default CUP install).
Take your time and "bon courage" as we say in French.
-
Great stuff Monty. TY!!!!
-
Thanks a lot, Monty ! Excellent pack !
I just saw that the Ju-88C-6 bug is not fixed, for the moment.
-
Thanks !
-
just a small error: on the new updated stock P-11c when one selects a different country than Poland, the plane cannot be flown; if you add the mod from here into #WAW directory, other nations can use the Pzl 11c again;
-
Thank you.
-
Got it, thanks Simon and Co.
-
Thanks a million Monty - i've now decided to resist the temptation to add extras myself as I had to unistall the #WAW stuff yet again (the great benefit of this CUP install btw) to load this new update!
Any news on including the Leo451 and Potez 63?
Mick
-
I love that this keeps going and going:) Hopefully one day this will be so big that we will need a compressed version called the "Micro" CUP because it won't fit on anyones hard drive :) :)
Thanks Monty!!
FYI--- The P-51D with the working Canopy opens nicely but the normal "open canopy" sounds are not there. Could be just my install, not sure.
Suggestion: (yes, i'm sorry to be annoying)
When you post a new module, can you sticky (I think thats what they call it) along with your thread for the CUP download? I almost missed the update because I thought it would have been under that thread which I check everyday. Also, there was a post by Uberdemon that gave direct links to the most common issues and it was on the first page. Where did it go? that was very useful!! Uberdemon is doing a wonderful job with his UQMB by the way!!

**Update**
Ok, I see the WAW part 8 now on the download page, but I would have blew right by it. I was looking at the bottom under "Expansions and Addons".
-
creature, good suggestion. ;)
I moved the new updates to the CUP downloads section here:
https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/board,241.0.html
Simon, Phillip, hope this is OK. ;)
I have a business date now, later I will investigate
if there are more DL threads wich should be moved there.
-
sure Gerhard, thanks a lot; just went here to do what you have done already :)
will be away for the rest of the day too, but might drop in occasionally in between flights and can do some work here as well, if necessary...
-
Much easier to see now :)
-
just a small error: on the new updated stock P-11c ... if you add the mod from here into #WAW directory, other nations can use the Pzl 11c again;
Hi Griffon,
Could you elaborate on the last part please? Move from where to where?
Cheers,
Paul
-
Sure...get the said mod from here (SAS) and install it like any other aircraft without adding the ini and ru entries as they are in the game already..

Not quite, because in this way You'll have only 3D update for stock P.11c (no new sounds, no FM).
Problem is in the small error in hier.him:
https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,21041.msg228259.html#msg228259 (https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,21041.msg228259.html#msg228259)

When You will make above fix in hier.him, You can have both stock and new slots for P.11c and, what more important stationary plane for stock P.11c (now it is lost too because of this error).
So in my opinion, the best solution is putting mod with corrected hier.him in #WAW folder (even enough will be inserting only corrected hier.him), and restoring entries for stock P.11c in air.ini, stationary.ini and technics.ini (but with preserved entries for new slot too).
Entries for stock P.11c:
plane.properties:
P_11c P.11c, 1939
air.ini:
P_11c air.P_11C 1 pl01 SUMMER
stationary.ini:

I'm not able to use the Igo guided bomb as a loadout in the game. Anyone else having this issue?

nope

Regarding the latest improvements for the BF109 made by Jeronimo, I see here that only the stock models have in C.U.P such improvements.
I have an addition with the packed version "for 4.12" that Geronimo made, and this one works for all and every model present in C.U.P. without flaws . I let it be known here for if anyone is interested, or for any future "official" compilation .
Also, I have added the fix with the Gero improvements for the u.s. F4F, F6F, and FM2, available in C.U.P. for the brit models but not for the U.S. ones. I believe that after the latest #WAW pack, those models are the only ones still not "officially" included in WAW.
Of course, for anyone interested, these additional geronimo improvemente are available; Install with jsgme as any other #WAW mod.
Please, also, let me know if here is not the right place to post this fileset.

You don't need to register to download, click on download button, close the dialog and click againg on the download button, it will start
-
Should you have still any troubles with the download, please be aware also that these are the work of Jeronimo available here on his topic:
https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,25142.msg259058.html#msg259058 (https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,25142.msg259058.html#msg259058)
and in it, his 109 pack that works on C.U.P. is referred below as: DOWNLOAD 4.12 VERSION
What i did only is to gather the (few) models of his work that for whatever reason still does not show in C.U.P. and pack it in a customary file for making easier to add it to anybody.
-
heidelergensis, that's very helpful, thanks! I will re-integrate these into SFS with the next update. Meantime, this is great.
-
Thanks to you for your huge achievement with C.U.P; ....it´s right now my preferred installation of Il-2and it is also an outstanding way to maintain a modded version. I´m sure it has been a lot of work and testing to build it up.

This forum, and the open participation of everyone, makes it easier all the time. The principles and structure of the project just need to be maintained to keep it all current for everyone. Contributions like this help enormously, we all win! ;D
-
I'm just noting for reference that WAW part 08 "C.U.P. Module-03 World at War PART-08.rar" was randomly named differently than the previous 7 WAW parts, so it doesn't sort sequentially in a folder file list sorted by name.
In fact, every single CUP DOF/WAW/JTW archive file is named sequentially except for WAW part 8. I was just about to download and install it again when I spotted it at the very bottom of my CUP downloaded files. Fortunately my CUP install wasn't affected*.. ;)
-
monty, it was not mentioned in the temporarily closed waw part 9 thread, so i just ask here:
you did not mention the SFS files in your guide for re-setting cup to waw 8.
waw 9 came with new versions of old SFS. (WAW43.sfs and WAW49.sfs). so for a really clean rollback i guess we need to replace those with the pre waw 9 versions and delete the numbers 50 to 53, which came with waw 9 too until you supply a new version?
-
Hi deci, Its not necessary to roll back the SFS files. The accumulated 3do improvements were added after Pt-08 was released but don't change anything with regard to the setup or function. Its fine to just put back the original #WAW. With so much mucking around with it I definately recommend that, it feels so clean and fresh again!
The new Pt-09 will also comprise a complete #WAW - Sort of a restore point from there. 8)

In other words, can we just patiently wait for the new Pt-09 and not roll back to Pt-08 Or it is necessary to do the roll back?
Thanks

ok but FYI, leaving the waw part 9 SFS files active will BREAK the f6F-5 cockpit, like others reported. a rollback of the SFS files to BEFORE waw part 9 fixes this again. so there does seem to be a problem?
i really hope i DON'T look like i am acting like a arrogant know it all, or anything. i am just really thorough when testing something i really like... il-2 + cup :) and want to help getting things working correcftly.

Just to confirm Deci's findings, part9 SFS, something broke the F6F-5. Tested on a totally clean install of C.U.P. and just to make sure, rolled back to #WAW part1 in a vanilla #WAW and SFS_WAW folder and reinstalled to part8. All ok now.

Yes, F6F-5 meshes under testing, that failed the test, should not have been compiled, among other things. There's no excuse, the wrong folder got in there and it shouldn't have happened. An internal inquiry resulted in a formal reprimand. :( (eMeL and RDDR seem quite nice on the surface but they are tough buggers too.)
Fortunately its all been sorted out, even more improvements made, and the Part-09 Part-10 package is better than ever. It will be compiled VERY carefully, and uploaded when it is ready.
-
Oh well, we all have bad hair days. Except me. I have no hair. :( :( ;D
One other thing I noticed with the F6F5 (and F3), is that Jero's cowling fix does not seem to have been included in C.U.P. for these two. I have applied Jero's fix in my "extra mods" install of C.U.P. and works fine, no problem.
Thanks for all the great work,
