I think about this since I came to modding for Il-2

There are so much very good scripted (static) campaign out there and the mission builders spend so many times in creating an research for historical accuracy but there is one thing that I hardly missed...

A PILOT ROOSTER!

Yes,I mean all the screens that keeps track of your own virtual fighter pilot, that tracks the plane losses in the campaign,the promotions and pilot deaths.In other words:A pilot board like we allready have in the Dynamic campaigns!!

Like this:





but for the moment and after hard fight you get only this "debriefing" screen:



..and this is like nothing.Totaly annonym,no spirit,no immersion.
It´s like you are a nameless ghost that fly side by side with other namless ghosts!It doesen´t matter who gets killed,or how many plane or plane types are downed.Totaly annonym...

My question is: Is it possible to "convert" (so to speak) the pilots rooster from DGen to static campaigns? or is it too hard coded in IL-2?

..and if it´s possible,is someone willing to do that!?

Think this could be a great step forward in the gameplay.

Cheers and Peace to all.

Hi, Semor. It's a good idea. I think it would raise the level of immersion.

cheers

I think that the pilot rooster for static campaigns is missing in Il-2 for a long time.
+1 for the idea from me.

That would be a great addon

This would be fantastic

Little self-bump....

Hmmm,over 400 views and only 4 "I would like to see this" posts?

Is the idea of a pilot rooster for the static campaigns so un-popular,or is it simply impossible to to? (for coding reasons,etc..)

Its a good idea and would be nice to see it come about.

After 10 years still nothing.   This would be a great mod for static campaigns. I try myself some years ago with zero outcome. I suppose that it must be very difficult and maybe impossible to create such a mod....
