The good news? The creation of TF 4.5 was a huge learning experience and with that experience and the new found knowledge, we will progress more quickly towards the completion of TF 5.0. Progress still requires a lot of testing and educated guesswork. Although we now do have access to the Source Code, we lack the guidebooks and technical manuals of the original development team, lost in the years after the project was originally shut down. The process which has led up to this Release has been more difficult and challenging than expected. And it will be the solid foundation for further development of this game engine. only a patch, with a few new aircraft and features, but if the reception is positive, it will lay the groundwork for Releases which will be a lot more substantial and exciting. We hope 'IL-2 Sturmovik Cliffs of Dover - Blitz' will meet the communities expectations. without your loyal support and enthusiasm Team Fusion would not be in the position we are in today, with the opportunity to have fun with our favourite game and hobby. Our second vote of thanks must go to the CLIFFS OF DOVER community. Thank you Nikolay Baryshnikov and Jason Williams. We would like to begin this announcement by saluting 1C Games for their willingness to trust Team Fusion with the valuable commodity which is the 'IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover' Source Code.
