Thanks!  But a lot of people has helped me. And without all the wonderful modders this would not have been possible!

Hi Poltava. Really enjoying the campaign. I have reached the Battle of Britain segment. During the lead up I noticed that the French rivers have a blackish shimmer and the English Channel looks like a green ploughed field at times. Is this caused by my laptop setup or config. Apart from that I find your use of so many different aircraft types very appealing and immersive. I have lost half my aircraft through collisions in the mass take offs which keeps you on your toes.

[SAS~Poltava]

Larschance!

The graphics effects problems have nothing to do with the campaign, I assure you.

And yes, you have to keep your tongue correctly in your mouth during these mass take-offs! 😉

All the best!

Good to hear,

When i get a hold of my notes will send them!

And my pleasure, anytime P. We all make the game what is now. And somehow it makes it even more fun to fly.

Hi Poltava. Up to mission 50 now. The BoB segment is very immersive and I am glad to say my old laptop is coping with 100 aircraft dogfighting all at once. The sight of all those Spitfires and Hurricanes and others heading towards you is really exciting/nerve wracking.
FYI I must mention mission 43 where you protect an ASR plane - for some reason the 109 crashes as soon as you load the mission. I couldn't tell if it was rammed by AI or not. However, you can still apply the mission and move on to the next.

[SAS~Poltava]

Thanks for the heads-up about mission 43! 👍 As mentioned: I will gather a few more bloopers and then do an update!

Yes, indeed: seeing the sky almost crawling with aircraft is a great sight. I think it’s only in IL-2 1946 you can see these really BIG dogfights

I have just started this campaign. I get incorrect altitude reading. It says I'm at 500m when on the ground.
The same thing on an unrelated matter, occurs on some dgen campaigns when running BAT.
Anyone else have this?

[SAS~Poltava]

That hasn't anything to do with the campaign. I'm afraid. It is a map related thing.

Hi Poltava. Possibly found another anomaly. In the Malta segment I attacked two Stranraer flying boats and used up all my ammo on the them. They flew on without even a bullet hole between them. Is it possible they have no damage model attached to the aircraft type. I am told this has happened before elsewhere and the developers were not aware until the aircraft were attacked.

[Griffon_301]

Might be a mod aircraft related thing...the Do-18 is also unbreakable nearly...

[SAS~Poltava]

Yes, that is a mod problem. Not good. Perhaps I must replace the Stranraer all together.
