Version: 1.0
Aircraft: Savoia-Marchetti S.M.79
Lenght: 30 missions
Type: Semi-Historical

This is release of Mediterranean War flying the S.M.79 for Dark Blue World. Attention was focused on fixing AI, atmosphere, navigation and radios. Fly and listen the '30-'40s songs of Radio Roma! The implementation of Radio operator in the S.M.79 crew and the radio beacon permits a realistic navigation. Events, dates and locations are historical, planeset is accurate, many ground and air units are used for recreating these dramatic battles. Flight plans are fictional. Campaign difficult could be considered "high", expecially in Theatre 2, due to realistic set of forces. Command & Control features were fixed.

Bombing missions against ground units and ships in following theatres are planned:

Theatre 1: Malta
Theatre 2: Operation Harpoon and Pedestal
Theatre 3: El Alamein
Theatre 4: Tobruk
Theatre 5: Invasion of Tunisia
Theatre 6: Invasion of Sicily

News in DBW:
- More AIs, object, effects
- Radio operator, radio beacons and Radio Roma
- Infantry, Forward air controller and Costal watcher
- Correct ships
- Reworked AI in Theatre 2
- Small mission fix
- Italian pack included
- Historical Italian music

Installation: unzip into IL-2 Sturmovik 1946 folder. Select higher rank (Maggiore).

Bug fix for who have downloaded the pack: edit campaign.ini file (Missions\Campaign\IT\MW_SM79_DBW\campaign.ini), adding the bold text string:

[Main]

EpilogueTrack Missions/Campaign/IT/MW_SM79_DBW/video/final

NB: The download section of the site was updated with the fixed campaign.
