Title: Official Il-2 Demo Released
Post by: AKSWulfe on September 06, 2001, 04:16:00 PM

Or so I'm told. http://games.1c.ru/demos/IL2DEMO.EXE (http://games.1c.ru/demos/IL2DEMO.EXE)

Pulled it from a guy at AGW. You might be able to find some mirror sites from the Blue-Byte forum.

Is the La5 flyable in this one?

If so could someone grab some screenshots (damage and not) and post them here for me?

Thanks!

hmm about 8kB/s now when using GetRight and downloading file in three segments.
It's also 12% of my ADSL so guess I could download some X-rated pics while waiting...

ATTENTION: This demo is in russian. If you don't speak Russian you will have a hart time playing it. Demo does work on English machine.

My pic is from demo, notice power reading (In Russian)and if you zoom in, you'll see swastika. http://www.hitechcreations.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=72&t=000129 (http://www.hitechcreations.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=72&t=000129)

Looks like 1C has extremely poor bandwidth.

Strange for one of the richest software companies here.

Even people from Moscow had problems downloading it.

The ONLY difference in this demo is the swastika, and Russian menus.

Well, Cyrrilic isn't too much different drom Latin  :) Who cares - 25 letters or 33?

It's no problem for any Russian to read Latin fonts  :)
