1. We plan to increase the modes of multiplay.
2. We plan to make it very usueful for the championships and online wars (measn features of online gameplay and servers)
3. We plan Bots in dogfight. It was in plan for Il-2 but never released due to some problems in online traffic overloading in the past. There was other prioritets in the past

We also plan to give third party more free hands to build themselves without our control objects, small online maps, planes and cockpits....

DON'WORRY!
This means that we will have two rooms for multiplay:

1. Standard our staff room where custom made third party planes can't fly...
2. the room of online gameplay for our standard set and the planes of third party...

If user community and we ourselves will find that som guy of third party did the right job, then we will move such plane in a standard set as well.

In this case we will be more free to make new things and feature than to support third party models and community will decide which plane to play or not from third party...

I also expect to replace by such things the industry around the MS add-ons

It is in all we plan and it isn't all that will be released righ with the release of the sim.
Say tools we will release after ther release of the sim itself... and first tools will be for objects and maps, then later for planes... if possible

Note for the third party developers about these features of BoB:
we don't give full access to source code. We give access just for some basic tunings of FM and animations which will be possible to use only in single play custom made special room missions and only in special online room for such planes.
If it will be not possible to make such a scheme then we will cancel the work over custom planes... and will keep just objects and maps.
And will repeat we don't give ability to create the big maps, which we will keep for ourselves that to make new sims of new theaters.

We will keep two modes

1. Sames or like it is with static branched (if user knows how to do it )
2. New dynamic campaign.
I don't think it will be worse than in Rowan's BOB.

I don't see the great prpblem in rendering of 3D... But I see the problem in advanced AI and hundreds AI objects working simultaniosly... This is the problem...

So the scalability of campaign system will be adjustable for amount of objects in the sky at first...

Also the details of the city like London will be higher than of Lenigrad in FB... This also would eat resources but alread of 3D render.

I can't tell you... but with the sample of Il-2 series you may seethat we put there everything possible for the mid-low PC as well..

Yes all textures will be greater size than in Il-2 series, but we will keep aslo small textures as well. So if you will large, then you should also make smallers (two or 3 types probably). And the online system will decide which one to transfer to others analizing the traffic.

I would say that DM and details of ships in BoB will be better but not so much than in PF. We can't spend 50-60,000 polygons just for one object... This will stop the FPS even with LODs. So... we have flight sim at first but not the ship sim, where we wouldn't need to render and calculate so much like in flight sim...

As for shop's AI - yes it will be not bad I think

We had such before release of original IL-2.
The problem of use coming easy - on the hills it looks like the stairs and this isn't acceptable. So it was removed.

However for BoB we found solution

We or third party modelllers would do this aircraft in future for BoB if will have enough data to model it as exact copy to standards we now have in BoB.....

Personally I alwasy liked how this plane is looking.

In BoB the weather conditions will be very advanced... since we plan in future to give the gliders for control

In Bob there will be no water starts. This may come only in future with add-ons and new theaters

We would like to make Bristol Blenheims MKI and MKIV flyable in BoB... But all references we have now doesn't allow us to make cockpits and gunner/other positions well... Lets say with the BoB standards where we make only 100% copy of real cockpits with the refences we have it is simply impossible....

We need good quality photos where all labesls and signs are recognizeable...

BoB will have more sources open for third party. We expect even some third party industry around it. However it will be not like in MS sims. Its all becasue of fair online gameplay.
So the third party add-ons in most cases will be not playable with the main game content using online modes - Only on separate servers, except the cases if we will sertify such add-on for online gameplay and will close of its source code.

I would say we will have way less aircraft in the intial release of BoB. Simply becasue of more detialed things for each aircraft modeling.... Which means time and resources that we may spend for that modeling.

However we will expand the BoB by the way as it is done with the PF... means install stand alone new sim or install this new sim over BoB and to get new experinece....

This is more life-able idea... and for more longer life of the sim on the market...

As well as we like to go by two branches - Single + online with linmited online features and only online sim branch simultaniosly, where on dedicated server will be new events and wars regulating by developer/publisher. It is jut an idea for you in which way we directed now. Not all may happen, but it is ideal thing for which we force all our resources in future, where you will be able to control not only the planes.

This is my general plan:

BoB, then after BoB Africa then something new (don't know yet)

We will use successfull attempt with PF...
1) Releasing BoB.
2. Released Africa as stand alon and with possibility to merge with BoB.
3. releasing new stand alone theater say X, with the possibility to merge with BoB + Africa + X
4. etc. Including European, Russian front and Pacific, but before will be several titles.

Finally we will get even more than in Il-2 series amount, quality, etc..

Such method will help me to be alive for a long time. You know that currently we are almost alone on the market... niche is too small.
But I dislike to go on consoles and name it simulators..

In Bob there will be no water starts. This may come only in future with add-ons and new theaters

Asi jsem se nepřesně vyjádřila Hopere :sm19: Obě letadla jsou rozpracována. Usuzuji tak z obrázků, které jsem před několika měsíci našla na webu. Je na nich "tužka", Wellington, Spitfire Mk.I, Hurricane, Defiant, Lysander, Bf-109E a další letadla (teď z hlavy nevím konkrétní další typy). Informaci o tom, jestli se od té doby něco změnilo a už se na některých nepokračuje, nemám. Tak sem ty obrázky nemám dávat, když nejsou aktuální? :rolleyes:
