What do we want to see/need in CFS2 in 2020?

It would be great if flight models could be upgraded to make missions more predictable, at least when you want them to be predictable. That's WAY outside my area of understanding. :banghead:

This is not only about flight models. CFS2's AI engine is not sophisticated enough to use combat tactics that fit the performances of the aircraft AI pilots are flying. So, fast 'energy' fighters will always try to dogfight against slower and more agile fighters, and German fighters will never use frontal attack against allied Bombers but will always attack from behind instead.
 
Looking at the Western Front in my WWI install I was reminded of the need for an upgrade to reproduce the ground as it was from 1914 to 1918. Most of what is needed is in place, but the flooding of the Yser river and the narrowing of some roads would enhance the scenery.
I have been looking at doing a rail network for Belgium but now think that it would be better to have the rail lines and the coastal tram line drawn into the ground textures to avoid flattening most of Belgium. Any takers?
 
Why pay a lot af attention on aircrafts produced in one or two pieces or even in only prototypes? Better upgrade exscisting ones i.e. the heavies in RAF
bomber command Stirlig,Halifax, Lancaster,Wellington,Whitley.--New textures, panels and sounds:very_drunk:

Most people here are requesting more aircraft (new models or updates of old ones), but after dowloading the new Battle of France packages (thanks again!) I realized that beside BoF and BoB there is no British fighter campaign for ETO!

I think something like a Spitfire squadron campaign from 1941 to 1945 (and maybe a 1945 Tempest campaign) would be a great addition to our good old CFS2.
 
Maybe a Warwick and a Vampire...

The Warwick was used at large numbers. There'is no native CFS2 Vampire and it will be useful at a RAF46 install!

....(NOT SW :biggrin-new:)...... here is a link to a wilki that lists the classes of the destroyers utilized by the USN in WW2. It also lists the between war classes. You can see that many of the classes have been covered by different people.
Believe me , as a former flea who rode on a Greyhound (you don't serve on them you ride them! Just ask MR!) I would love to see more but the classes were limited. More pre-war classes than during where there were only three classes of new ones.

Yes sir, you are right. There are a few pre-war classes that served as well as the in-wartime classes. I would like to see updated versions of the ones built 1935-45, especially those that were in numbers in the PTO.
 
Stuart\ shadow wolf....

.. from what I have in my ship folders, you, Collins and Usio (RIP)have covered almost all the DD classes directly or by ship names that are in one of the classes but not named as the class. directly.
I think what we are referring to here are the between war treaty classes that were still around for World War 2 and its ending. These classes would be the Bagley, Benham, Benson , Greaves and Gridley.
I can't seem to find any of these .

There are a VN bagley class,VN Benson Class and a VN Gridley Class.

Hi "the bookie"...

.....I have the Vn classes but I think the gist of the original post was for the ships to be of todays standards. I guess for that even the ACM Mahan should be included. That is what I intended when I lumped those ships together as not being represented. Guess I didn't state it properly.
 
Stuart277: I got your PM - thank you - and te ships you named are good ones. I may have yo go back into my soon to be released campaign and substitute your versions. You do fine work! :applause::applause:

Shessi,

Roxanne is right...we could use the generation of French bombers arriving on the scene just as the Germans invaded, including the Amiot 354, Bloch 174, and perhaps a Potez 63.11.

Yes - some of those weird French bombers that looked like flying gantries mated with a stick insect...
 
Made me larf!!..:biggrin-new:

And can be aranged on all new ac, along with a selection of ashtrays and deep shagpile carpets.

Cheers

Lol...... i know this a looonnnnng shot.... but be nice if some these old payware stuff went freeware esp if they're not supported anymore.... like what the nice ppl at AH and Alphasim do.... anythin 10 yrs or older.... be nice ... but highly unlikely .

But we do have a huge resource in old and new freeware detailed stuff ... that don't chew up fps tooooo much.... like Milton stuff... just to name one...... and quite tweakable... so really good on fps. ;)

Cheers mav
 
Forgive my ignorant question...Is it possible to take, for example, an Alphasim freeware plane that isn't multi-lod and make it multi-lod? Or...make a non-gmax model a gmax one? Just curious.

Kind regards,
