I was JUST going to post this myself.
Many months ago now, they teased that the have included concrete airfields for appriate airfields, that the have improved the coastline and spread farms, windmills and bridges across the map. They hoped we would see it soon TM.
The airfields from that video mirrors the airfields shown in the Spitfire trailer from over a year ago. They are FAR better than what we have now (I think it is the same in the above vid, but that one seems to have the old shader, making it look not so good). The odd thing is that the map are recieving small "quiet" addons, like the new estuarys, some field textures etc without mention.
A written update with some screenshots would go a VERY long way here instead of sitting in the dark for months and months. I know that the default answer is "they will show when there is something to show", but surely they have something they can drip feed us a bit with regarding this map.
Could we see a new airfield or coastline for example? Will speedtrees be implemented or not?
Info and screenshots keeps the hype and interest fresh. Hope there will be some more info soon.

Your contribution to the community, especially to the WW2 bunch, is incredible. Thanks for all the great missions and skins your putting out! Enjoy them all!

No old ground texture mod will work. The structure is completely different. I sincerely hope it gets cracked though and that ground texture mods will be a thing again.

Agreed. Night flying is very rewarding when the environment is up to par. Hope this gets prioritzed soon as well.

I can't understand why they don't have more of the changes listed in their changelogs. There is a TON of changes that are not listed- I just think it is weird that the people that work on it don't want it mentioned. The new tracers and flak effects, improved textures in Normandy, changes to trees in Normandy (to make roads visible again), changes to the grass (Still the ugly stones lying everywhere though). And these are just a few of the things that I picked up personally. 2.5 is a tremendous update, but the changelog looks very humble.

I don't know why some people believe that everything is brown and orange in autumn. I would prefer a darker greens, with more brown spots here and there, but thats just me.

I had the same, but I renamed my metashaders folder (to let it rebuild) in user/saved games/dcs and they went away and I got 10+ additional FPS

Got chills. Your best work so far. Incredibly well made. And hats off to ED! What a great time to be a simmer!:D

It says nothing of fixing the current stability issues/crash to desktop of 2.2. However, these changelogs often leave out changes, so I hope something has improved. On a personal note I really hope for the new flak effects as well:)

Found this great vid. I am sure there are others as well.

I'm officially more excited for this than the Hornet now. Fantastic news.
-
Assume the absolute latest possible release window and be positively surprised if it changes;) Spring can be considered 'spring month', so assome June 30th. Better yet, don't assume at all.

Thanks!

Seemingly out of the blue, DCS saves all my screenshots as PNGs instead of JPG as before. This gives some headache in sharing screens etc. Is this a global setting somewhere?
-
Thanks Reflected. I might contact you at a later date if your interested in joining:) For now I have other stuff to tend to, but will deffo pick it up later.

Hmmm.. might it be possible to just swithch PLAYER to CLIENT?
What about the guys here that played coop? Did fighters spawn in etc?
This mission would have endless opportunities for COOP if it works:)
-
Do the triggers work as in singeplayer in COOP? (I'll edit in the client slots etc myself)
Great mission btw(- that is what I got to see of it before DCS ctds in 2.2 :)
-
I get crashes in 100% of missions that extend some 20+ minutes using WW2 units in various missions over Normandy. Never had anything like it. Here is the latest log.

Thank you!

How do you guys recommend setting the audio sliders. As of right now, my wind rushing noise is VERY loud, to the point of drowning out the engine growl, even when 'sound as headphones' ticked off and the canopy closed.
How confidential was D-day?

From what I have read, reading the histories of Norwegian Spitfire squadrons (Under RAF) as well as "The Big Show" by french pilot Clostermann, it seems they got the heads up very, very, close to the event. Like the 4th or 5th of June. They off course knew the invasion was imminent, they trained for it extensively, but that it was june 6 and Normandy seemed to be known very late (although I suspect many had put their money on it before the announcement). If I remember correctly, Clostermann knew about it a few days before, due to some assignment, and was not allowed to fly until the the invasion was underway (So he would not get shot down and captured).
