Hello gents,

On behalf of Daidalos Team, I would like to thank you for your support and patience while we have been finalizing 4.09 patch. We hope you will have as much fun playing with it as much we have enjoyed working on it.

Even though we have dedicated several months to internal and external beta-testing, it is possible that we might not have been able to identify all issues. Thus, we would like to ask IL-2 community for a feedback related to 4.09 content only. If you find any suspicious issue/bug, please report it in this thread, ideally backed with some hard evidence (screenshots, tracks, etc.). In order to report only those things that are not known to us, please read the PDF Guide first.

We are committed to look at each of the problems and try to fix it in our future release.

Thank you.

Daidalos Team.

Stickied.

First, thank you to all involved in this project.

1.Slovakia winter map = hard water.




2.On Slovakia winter and summer QMB Scramble mission the SM 79 spawns in hanger and breaks in half.
SM79 spawns fine on other maps outside hanger.

Tried with JU88, similar size, all is well, other planes ok.

Slovakia summer map quick mission - if you select "Axis" and mission type "Scramble," you start out on an Allied airfield and get torn to pieces by unfriendly flak.

nforce chipset motherboards (a7n8x) require the mg_snd*.* files from 4.08m; otherwise, game does not start.

Possibly affects all similar configurations using older on-board sound.

Hmmmm.... had a no cd crack on 4.08. Now it loads up to 60% and quits...back to windows.

Did you install the official 4.09m patch on a clean -unmodded- game? That load failure at 60% is quite common with a messed up mod installation...

And BTW Team Daidalos, why did you bring back SecureRom, the requirement to have the game disk in the tray? I thought we were well and truly beyond that silliness with IL-2.

Can confirm this impacts my rig. I use an old KT400-based mobo (A7V8X) and a Turtle Beach Santa Cruz PCI sound card. With a clean 1946 DVD install and then patched to 4.08m and then 4.09m the game just does not start. I get the little CD-type icon, then nothing, and il2fb.exe disappears from task manager.

Replacing the versions of mg_snd.dll and mg_snd_sse.dll installed with 4.09m with the 4.08m versions, as suggested above, gets everything working again.

Ahhm... we didn't.
The patch was compiled from all our content by OM's team.
And there wasn't any security stuff in our content (we don't have even a clue about such things).
On the other side I doubt, that Oleg did include something like that in the patch.
So I just suppose you made a clean install from DVD/CD, which brings naturally the Securom stuff with it. You need to exchange the necessary files as you did before and you are good to go.

I believe Caspar is correct.
