Afraid not. When the busier map (basically, it is the map textures for the zoomed version of the original campaign map) was built, it was enthusiastically embraced by the active BDG majority at the time (I doubt it would have been by the membership a few years earlier), and no thought was given to p...

I wonder what would happen if you installed 2.13, then just dropped the 2.0 exe on top of it -
in the best case, you'd get the working game plus a decade of massive eye candy improvements.
I have no idea whether our changes would make this fail, as of course it wasn't anything we
considered.

Hi and welcome. With a bit of webbing, I found a posting of BoB1 patch v0.99, here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/4t7not7wfc1rhha/bob_v099.exe?dl=0 It's been decades since I made use of it, but as I recall we were already doing the one-stop load process at that point, so I think you just run an exe and ...

You know, if you had dropped by with this information a year and a half ago, there would have been a couple
of BDG coders to try your suggestion out, but things have been awful quiet on that front lately. If and when
one of them drops by again I'll be sure to point this out to them.

Well, I know that Scott (A2A head) has always wanted to be able to deliver a very top quality combat flight sim, but as you will be aware if you're familiar with A2A's flight sim add-on products, he has very high standards. And from discussions with him here over the years while modifying BoB2, with...

Hey, we'd love to welcome anyone interested in contributing to the coding effort. Basically, if you see some aspect of the program you'd like improved, and have the ability and are comfortable with volunteering, access is mostly a matter of demonstrating interest and persistence. Also, we've had som...

Basically, BDG has been simply an amassing of interested volunteers, who each contributed what they had time and interest to offer of their skills. Over the years we have had quite a large number of people pass through, but not many were coders - you can see the whole contribution history here: http...

Rogeroger is the is our most recent active object builder, he might be interested. My skill is just in polishing the accuracy of the geography.

We had several coders expressing some interest during the 2.13 development, but that seemed to peak during the disappointment over the Il-2 initial release, and subsided rapidly with the appearance of the community modding effort for repair of CloD. As you will know if you followed the 2.12 & 2....

The patch link should be repaired shortly. Thanks for letting us know it was broken, we wouldn't think to check otherwise.

Oh, by the way, regarding the SSD, out of curiosity, was it a spontaneous failure, and if so, what brand/age?

Not much to it if you're comfortable with editing your BIOS. You want to also check your computer manual, and make sure, if you have 6GB/s SATA and 3GB/s SATA, that you connect the SSD to a 6GB/s line (SATA3). Your BIOS should see the new drive even before you put anything on it. You can disconnect ...

This french language website might have some information; it's pretty big, I've only skimmed the surface.
The link is for a google-translate version:

I had a hard time accessing the site a few days ago, perhaps others did as well. After several tries over a couple of days, I let it slide for a while, expecting it to get sorted out, and I expected to hear something about it, and sure enough, this post talks about it: https://www.a2asimulations.com...

I can already hear the requests - please add a module of this to your flight sim. Would love to have this level of detail for ground ambience in BoB2. It looks pretty well done, and seamless. Guess we'll have to wait for the poster to advance in the sim so we can see how the other birds are rendered...

Great to hear! Welcome to the fun.
