No date for release yet as we are still testing it but here are the known issues and content so far:

Contents and Fixes WOFF Release Ver 2.02 4234 (Not released - still in test)

1) AI bombing is now less accurate and depends on pilot skill and altitude

2) QC Engagements - the AI now make attacking move decisions more quickly at the start of the mission

3) Player/Bombardier Control switching into and out of autopilot mode no longer results in craft heading off in a straight 'bombing' line

4) Fix for bad AI behaviour when player takes control of the aircraft during a bomb run and later returns control to the AI - the craft will no longer remain indefinitely on a straight line bombing run.

5) Fix for bad AI aircraft handling during turn before bomb run that could result in a bomb being dropped incorrectly.

6) QC Locations and Flight type options revised for Bombers.

7) Aris Cloud textures now included in WOFF2.0 - thanks to ArisFuser

8) The Official Microsoft Direct X 9 Redistributable Pack now included in Toolbox\DX9Redist - users still have to install the pack themselves

9) Reduced sound volume of aircraft diving on fire/damaged.

10) Fixed a bug whereby the players Observer hours and flight count were not incrementing.

11) Various aircraft model improvements

12) Fixed a database issue with Defence Flight Dover squadron (July 1917 specific) as a workaround use any other HD squad.

13) Mission Results Details page will no longer close on spacebar or escape buttons to more easily allow 'DiD' screen capture by 3rd Party apps

14) Fixed a database error in Jasta 24 (8 Jan 1917 specific)

15) Fixed a loadout issue with flares in the DH2 series of machines.

We will annnounce when 2.02 is available

All good things, but especially good to hear that Aris's Cloud Mod will now be standard in WOFF 2.02! Congrats to Aris for his great work there.

Looking forward to the release.

Amazing support! But then, the WOFF dev team has always provided such support. We WOFFers are sooooooo spoiled ... and lucky.

Just want to add my compliments to, and respect for, the OBD developers and the folks whose work has been included into the sim: Aris Fuser and Ankor. Thank you all, gentlemen, for continuing to improve this wonderful flight sim.

cheers

P.S. I almost forgot Robert Wiggens! Thank you, sir, for your most excellent backup and restore utility. It has saved my pilots and controller configurations through two complete reinstalls!

I believe you may have possibly deleted Sun.dds and sundisk.dds in effects\weather folder Wodin thats what will give you a square sun if that s what it was,dont delete anything just paste Aris files over..(backup original folder 1st pal)


They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

At the risk of offending someone I would suggest implementing all mod through JSGME to avoid such issue of clobbering or accidentLly deleting files
