Now UPDATE 8 of IL-2 SCW is available! (Yes, it has for some time.) You MUST have the base pack PLUS Updates 1 to 7 installed first, otherwise this update will not work.
Update 8 contains material that is actually mainly from the WW2-era, i.e. aircraft used in the Winter War 1939-40, but I have decided to add these special aircraft by DreamK to IL-2 SCW because they fit together very nicely with other aircraft already in the pack (like the Bulldog, the Hawker Hart and Fokker C.X) to give you a unique chance to simulate that conflict - and yes, a campaign pack for the Winter War, utilizing these aircraft, WILL follow!
DOWNLOAD IT HERE: http://www.mission4today.com/index.php?name=Downloads3&file=details&id=1983CONTENTS AND CREDITS: This update pack contains the following new material:

B.) Small but important updates for the following aircraft: the Fiat CR.32, the He-46, the Brewster B-239, the D.372, the D.510 and the Fokker C.X.
C.) Zloy Petrusko Mod for more realistic AA artillery: for instance AA guns no longer can see through clouds, they can't see in the night without search lights, and it is now possible to "scare" the AA gunners by attacking so they stop shooting temporarily.
D.) Skippers WW1-era improvised AA guns: one on a barrel, one truck-mounted 76mm gun.
E.) Marcosts "No Radio" Mod: which simply means that there will be no radio communications heard at all. But if you WANT these radio communications simply disable this Mod by renaming the folder "!!NO_Radio_chatter_1916_rv2" to "-!!NO_Radio_chatter_1916_rv2". Or just delete the folder.
IMPORTANT: If your aircraft suddenly start landing on top of each other, crashing, then
REMOVE this Mod. Just delete the folder and all will be fine!
F.) Solid Ice Fix by SAS~Storebror: with this fix ice again behaves like ice and not like water, making it possible to take off from frozen lake airfields.
G.) 9 skins for the new aircraft, by
Ife, Mangas, VP_media and
Imme.As usual: many, many, many thanks to all the involved modders who gave their talent and time for all of us to enjoy! You guys RULE!
SPECIAL THANKS: The whole idea for this pack comes from
Griffon_301, who has also helped A LOT in putting it together. Thanks man!
