Library Updates?

Post by durangokid »

Does the library get updated at all? I have several Messerschmidt bf 110 and there isn't an entry for them. Plenty on the internet, but the library full screen library images are particularly attractive.

Yeah, but how often&long do you watch those? Really love the game, but the library is IMO most useful for game-relevant info on terrain, movement etc. As for the historic unit info - you will always find more in-depth stuff online (as you said), or even in those paper-print thingies... ;)

Just my two cents of course, but personally I just think esp. the big pics increase file sizes (for example for downloads/patches)...

I do agree that I don't spend a long time admiring the pictures, but they are rather good and well worth a look. Sadly I can't agree about the downloads size. I have games that come in over 20GB and so anything Panzer Corps wants to download isn't a concern.

Just passing thoughts over a coffee. Thanks for the reply.

Yeah, not saying it's a big drama or so. But since every patch is a full install, you dl that stuff over and over again. The big pics alone (not those you see right away, but those coming up on mouse-click) are around 100MB now. Certainly not the world these days, but when everyone is dl-ing that new patch that just came out...

As said, no biggie, just think it's a lot of stuff for relatively little gain (after all, just bigger versions of pics already there).
