IL-2 Sturmovik: Desert Wings - Tobruk Patch 5.027 is here!


Greetings pilots!

Today lands another patch for IL-2 Sturmovik: Desert Wings - Tobruk, bearing version number 5.027.

As always, we'd like to thank all of our loyal fans who share their feedback in our Steam Forums. Thank you for your support!

Read the full changelog below:




  • New free campaign "Their Finest Hour" added to Blitz
  • Improved far target visibility for screen resolutions of 2560x1440, 4k, and beyond
    Also see Contact Spotting: https://www.team-fusion-simulations.de/tfsresources/?&plink=25#item25
  • Fixed: Shaking aircraft ForceFeedback effects resulting from firing cannons are not added on top of cannon's own ForceFeedback effects anymore
  • New option to toggle all in-game info windows on/off (Options, Control, Chat)
  • This will hide or show all the info windows that you have configured (also hide the Net Stats if shown). Note 1: If you have used this to hide all windows and then use Send Message, Toggle Net Stats or Flash Net Stats, this will unhide all windows, too.
    Note 2: The current status will be remembered until you exit the game, but not beyond.
  • A barrage balloon at Dover that caused crashes has been removed from the single missions A Busy Morning, Attack of the Eagles, Attack of the Kiwi, August Attrition, Corpo Aereo Italiano, and The Kanalkampf.
  • Please note that when Single Missions are updated by TFS it is not automatic that you will see the updated missions in your game immediately. This is because TFS will never delete any files that are
    in your "\Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover" folder! To get the updated Single Missions you must delete the existing missions in "\Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\missions\Single" while the game is not running. Next time you start the game the updated Single Missions will be copied from the game's installation folder (...\Steam\steamapps\...) into "\Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\missions\Single" where you can play them.
  • Fixed: Mirror does not retain already subsided vibration/shake (when Difficulty "Head Shake" is disabled) anymore
  • A previous Hotfix fixed crash-to-desktop in campaign "Gravity is my Friend"'s first mission
