To Suedfrucht

My MOD published in this topic is ONLY FOR 4.12.2m based SASModAct5.30 game.
And nowadays modern Jets MODs like Su-25 are also only for 4.12.2m based game.

We can have and play not only one version IL-2 1946 game in one PC..... we can install IL-2 1946 multiple by different installing folder name and make them in different base versions or different MOD environments.
You can keep your 4.10.1m based DBW install and make another fresh install to upgrade 4.12.2m in different  named folder.

When you have questions more about them, please post another place, not here.
Here is "SAS Engine MOD 2.7 patch western for 4.12.2m" topic.

Version 15/Oct./2015 Beta seemed still a bit hard to make a taxing-turn by heavy loadouts Jets/Bombers.


Here is a new Beta version I increase taxing-turn effect values.
A Change is only it.

Thanks Western

[western0221]

Version Beta 25/Oct./2015 seems safe and OK.

I move it to the 1st post as a stable version.

Thank you Western.

Has anyone had success using this with 4.13/6.01?

My MOD published in this topic is ONLY FOR 4.12.2m based SASModAct5.30 game.

as 413 introduces new classes, it's highly unlikely to work correctly, if at all, duffy's.
you can try it, though, and let us know if the sparks start flying, lol

@ western, i have a question, i think it's okay to ask you - i hope so!
the carrier catapult sequence used to have a steam trail effect behind the plane - i don't see that anymore in my latest testing?
as i've been away for a long time, i might have overlooked something, possibly this effect is only on specific CV's?
or some other dependance/mod is required?

That steam effect visual On/Off is written in Catapults.ini ( placed in the folder !SAS_Engine_Mod/com/maddox/il2/objects/ ).
Like:

Code: [Select]

[USSHancockCV19_1957]
dCatapultOffsetX 6.9
dCatapultOffsetY -41
dCatapultYaw -1.6
dCatapultOffsetX2 24.1
dCatapultOffsetY2 -43.8
dCatapultYaw2 -1.6
catapultPower   19
catapultPowerJets  25
bSteamCatapult 1
bSteamCatapult 1 line works as enabling a steam visual effect.
(Only a visual effect , no effect its pushing power.)

Steam catapult was in service late 1950s.
WWII time carriers didn't, they used Hydraulic pressure catapults (Cruisers, Battleships used Gunpowder catapults. )
About Essex class, SCB-27C modernization (straight deck) and SCB-125 modernization (angled deck) had Steam catapults.
About IL-2 1946 mods, others having Steam catapults are... Clemenceau class and Colossus class.
