From what I do remember it was very good, with many extra settings to that of the default game as well as things like Pilot back stories and log keeping. To name a few.

I'm sure someone will remember what it's called.

YES! I remembered. It's called IL2 Stab and although it's billed for FB/AEP it will work with 1946.

Read about it here - http://mission4today.com/index.php?n...etails&id=1444

Just d/l OFF. Does anyone have the MD5 sums? I see the same q was posted over in the OFF forum in March but has never been answered.

I highly recommend BoB2, the dynamic campaign is superb,you can even set it up so the AI does all the stategy and you just fly.The AI is astonishing and the immersion complete.When there's hundreds of planes in the air you get the feeling you've stepped back in time.

What is an MD5 sum, if you don't mind me asking? I have OFF as well, so I wonder if perhaps I've missed something.

There was a very optimistic "second look" article just posted on SimHQ, talking about the improvement to BoB2 with the recent patches, that got me rather interested: http://simhq.com/_air10/air_293a.html

At $20, I think I might just take the plunge with this one :hmm:

I think you can get it even cheaper - it's less than A$10 over here. Had it in my hands today, but didn't buy it. Methinks I should have now.

Here's something I found when searching for CFS3... http://cgi.ebay.com.au/COMBAT-FLIGHT...QQcmdZViewItem

Haven't seen it anywhere else, but haven't looked. Good price though if it is around.

On a different note I purchased CFS3 today. Should get it in a few days. Have already d/l OFF, KTCS and Wulfmann's BoB (installing looks like a pig though). Looking forward to firing it up.

EDIT: Oh wow, just read the review and JSGME gets a mention. Cool.

Wow, after reading that little review of BoB II and heard the awesome engine sounds, I have to get myself a copy of it! FAST!

PeriscopeDepth · 06-03-07, 09:46 PM

BoB2 is amazing. I have to repurchase, as my CD got scratched to the point of no return. Even with DCG, IL-2's campaign doesn't even come close to BoB. As well as the AI. Thinking I'll get the download tomorrow when my girlfriend's not watching.

PD

JScones · 06-04-07, 03:32 AM

Yeah, I've decided to get BoB2 and scrap Wulfmann's BoB CFS3 add-on.

I picked the BestBuy edition up for NZ$10.Best 10 bucks I've ever spent on a game.With the extra cash saved I got TrackIR4, this sim was made for it

.Hope to see you guys over at the shockwave forums.It's a good bunch over there.

HunterICX · 06-04-07, 06:46 AM

off all the thing I heard about BOB2
I think I will get it as well.
going to look in the local shops today

JScones · 06-09-07, 11:15 AM

Well, I've spent half of today playing BoB2, CFS3, CFS3/OFF and CFS3/Korea (and perhaps the other half "tweaking" the settings to be just right, LOL!).

One word: awesome.
Can't wait for CFS3/MAW to come in a day or two.

Before time spent tweaking Bob2, you may want to take a look at this thread, specifically my third post down the page:
