, for download links and details see:
Shockwave Productions Inc. :: View topic - Battle of Britain II v.2.05 Update Released
Summary:
It is a big update with almost 100 single changes that affect users, most of them fall into these rough categories:
- Even more bug fixes including CTD fixes.
- Improved FM, realistic spins (watch the Youtube video
).
- Better AI.
- Further work on both visual and audio effects.
- terrainwork.
- More general polish like tweaks to values and more bdg.txt options.
Besides the main 2.05 package that we recommend to any BoB2 user, there is the "MultiSkin" package. For each single engine fighter unit in game, the emblem, ID letters and base camouflage scheme are hsitorically correct.
If you see a plane in game, you can tell what unit it is from and from which airfield they operate. Here is one of six (!) maps showin where RAF/Luftwaffe planes come from depending on their schemes:
Find all 6 in printable form and pib them to the wall besides your computer:

The main reason to have MS extra is that it will not work on 64 MB video cards, as it would not fit at all and run out of memory.
