well what' the latest. keep in mind i'm reduced to the library for the moment so i've been away for the last 2 months.

There is no difference between two months (V4.09beta was out then, yes? ) and now regarding full v4.09.
There is still no server patch either so all online action (xept coops) are running v4.08.

In short - nothing new, as usual .

last i heard we're gettin it in two weeks

no words about a release.

just that the maps have been reworked a bit and will a bit differ from the beta ones.
for example the MTO got more land in the north.

yeah 409 Beta was out.
still no final...
guess we can chalk that up to work on BoB which is a good thing i guess. Still.....

it's either becuse of BoB or new maps for 4.09 Final i'm guessing.
Oh well maybe it'll be done before to much longer.

I'm out guys check back in in a few weeks.
S!~

thanks Franky

Any info about patch ?

........just asking

There were also some issues with roads leading into a dense forest, buildings hovering in the air and stuff like that. I posted a few pics in a similar thread about 2 or 3 months ago.

Oleg said, 4.09 will be released when a certain milestone was reached for BoB. It was estimated that he was refering to the beta, which would probably open a window for coding on 4.09, which has to be done by the Maddox team. I guess that will also include an updated dedicated-server software.

When that milestone is reached, nobody knows, though, but my guess is, that it's definitely not before the end of this year.

Thank You very much kind Sir!

The good news is that the map makers have had lots of time to sort out bugs with the maps and it sounds like the final versions of the maps are going to be superb.

I'm expecting BOB to go beta around September and be released before Hollydays. It would really hurt the sales not to, and anyone that wants to actually make some money out of it would not miss the Hollyday season unless they plan to wait another year.
I don't think BOB can wait another year. Oleg can't afford that. He has workers to pay.

Anyway I'm sure he'll pull it off.

Patch, what patch? ...I think they forgot about it ...If it's taking them this long, its either low priority or there's lots of things being addressed to the final..Yep "two weeks" from the next millenia, be sure

Not to start the rumor mill churning to much but on one of the recent threads in SIMHQ one of the members mentioned he just recieved the invite to beta test BOB...

What is he testing BoB for? I hope it is nothing serious.

Anyway... I hope his tests goes better than Ted Kennedy"s.

What differences/improvements does the 4.09 beta offer from the 4.08?

is there any possibility of see any new flyable aircraft in the 4.09 patch ?

I still have a little hope of see a flyable B5N and TBM/TBF.

No, there will not be any new aircraft in the final 4.09, certainly not flyable B5N's or Avengers. Sorry to burst that bubble, it's something I'd wanted too, but it's not happening.

virtually all games have beta testing... to find bugs and any other problems.

I was rather hoping we'd see the Mossie Mk.VI Series 2.

Actually 4.09 seems to work well with my system. Maybe no need to change anything.
