Fokker EV/DVIII has been in WOFF and OFF for a long time. Yes it is the mono wing/parasol as per the picture.
It's listed in the aircraft list in WOFF features on the website.

It's listed as Fokker EV as it saw a little action there (recalled due to wing failure) and IIRC it was renamed DVIII later and mostly unused as the war ended then before the DVIIIs got to action. Can't remember all the details.

Yeah thanks,I had missed it while reading the notes,is there hope for a future Southern Front? (Alps Italian/Austro-Hungarian Campaign)

Message in HUD to relay how you feel in regards to weather.

"It is warm and comfortable"
"It is freezing cold"
"It is deadly cold"

Who knows Cavaliere57, I guess it depends on the demand for it. If many would buy it then it would help, but we need to spread the word and get more sales/support to do all things.

Good one Wolfstriked we need to also attach it to your front door and windows in winter, and when deadly cold we fling them all open.

Honestly i think that it would be of great interest,for many reasons,a nice variety of plane types,some of them are already in roster,a new and very interesting world environment,a probably smaller geographical area ( North Eastern Italy and a bit of Dalmatian coast)but with great territorial variations than Northern Front more appealing I would say,you could run a poll,I'm pretty sure it will be rewarded well I would sign on that!! copter cheers

I'd be interested in the Italian front as well.

I like Wolfstriked's idea, but you could turn it into a whole list of possible statuses with slight effects on the game experience:


You are warm and comfortable. - Plane is nice and responsive.
You are cold. - Controls are just a little sluggish.
You drank too much coffee! - Plane is TOO responsive.

You are getting hungry. - Map involuntarily turns on every 20 seconds or so to see if you're home yet.
You are getting sleepy. - Slight blur, slightly darken screen, slight tunnel effect
You drank too much last night. - As 'sleepy', but red instead of darkening
Can't get that song out of your head - Entire screen bounces up and down in three-quarters time.
You have to pee! - You can only face in the direction of the nearest friendly airport. Jittery screen if you're taking too long to land.

I'd buy it!

dizzy LOL Maybe the msgs in HUD is a bit too much but the temps listed in the briefing room would work well.

Whatever happened to the 3D Pilot models in the cockpit that were present in BHaH? I'd like those back, it added a sense of realism being able to see your pilot move his arms/feet instead of seeing an empty cockpit when looking down.

Okay, a more serious suggestion for an Add On:


A new version of, or the functional equivalant of, OFFice/OFFbase/etc. to bring more role-playing and immersion to the sim. Obviously toggleable on/off probably from the Workshop.

For twice now I've had claims rejected in cases when the enemy aircraft was brought down close to our own airfield.

Actually in the most recent case, the EA actually *landed* on our field after our combat encounter:



The claim was rejected for lack of witnesses.

Could you improve the claims system to take better into account obvious cases like this one? There's no way such a kill could have been rejected for lack of witnesses!

I understand your stance towards new plane requests, so I'll just toss this out there and see if it sticks.


Morane Saulnier-N. It'll give the Fokker E series someone to fight on their own terms. As it stands, the Fokker Scourge can easily fizzle due to the AI's strength in providing supporting fire in two seaters.

Probably not at all possible, but multi-core aware code so that 1918, with all of the increased awesome AI in the air, will run smoother even on 2x, 4x compression. Again, probably not possible - but that's why they call it a "Wish List". :P

@Hasse

Some infanterists on the ground or nearby airfield could have claimed too to have shot him down and they became right. In one famous, but inverted case one pilot was credited for the victory for about 80 years, until it was evidenced that actually some infanterists from the ground made the kill. So can go either way. Being the only AC nearby and close to witnesses (who are probably shooting themselves) does not necessarily mean that a claim is conclusive.

I'd like some aiming circles/devices for the Nieuports. I just can't seem to figure out where to center them. Probably operator error, so let's help the operator.

Okay, this would mean a lot of work... but I would love to see the Rocker Arms actually working on those big inline Engines :-)
There would be no need to research the correct Firing Order - no one will be able to verify that, once, the Engine is running... even @ idle.
There is always this Feeling, that the Engine isn't really "alive", when you are flying around and see the Valvetrain standing still like on a Photo...

Yes, the planes all need to have more "life" injected into them... like it was said before: vibrating fuselage, working rocker arms, better looking fog effects inside clouds (or even have the entire flight avoid flying through clouds altogether), rain and snow water droplets, observer animation on the Fee when firing the top wing gun, allow Pilot's head to animate movements, a minor camera shake effect (with sound) when pilot is hit, better gun smoke effects when firing long bursts...

Also, an option for high resolution terrain including roads (those blurry ground textures are immersion breaking) and I'll buy a new Processor just to enjoy the added eye candy.

I have no idea whether this is possible, but it would be fantastic if WOFF could use two (or more) processors instead of just one. After all, everybody has at least a two processor cpu nowadays. As an ex-programmer of many years experience I do not know how this could or could not be done. None of the programming languages I used specified where any processing should be done or was aware of multi-processors. This was all left to the Operating System.
