Oh my God! Those videos were stunning!

I cannot believe after all these years that it's almost here. Everything has already been mentioned with one exception.

The thing that impressed me most was the transition of distant aircraft to close aboard in the fighting videos. I watched them many times - you can see many LOD's at work here. This is so much not Il2!

And I find the terrain to be top notch for a REAL flight sim. Excellent visual rendering of the atmosphere below the clouds, you can almost smell the thick air in the high summer mornining humidity.

S!

I don't think you have yet answered this question.
Will there be 1st person bail out in Cliffs of Dover.

I might be mistaken, but i'm pretty sure the answer is no, because it was answered long time ago, that its not possible because it would require rendering the cockpit and the outside plane (the one you are flying) at the same time, incresing enormously the ammount of polys. Lot of people asked for 1st person bail out, and 1st person climb inside the plane.
On DCS forum, for "Black Shark" and "A-10 Warthog" the same thing was requested but it was said it was impossible for the same reason.

Still, it would be very cool to have 1st person bail out! :grin:

I am sure this has been answered already, but the Germans had cannon shells that exploded with a self destruct fuse (zerleger).
I can post some photos of a 151/20 with self destruct if anyone wants to see it.
The typical self destruct consisted of a tracer that burned for a couple seconds and eventually through a small hole into the chamber that held the explosive charge, thus detonating it.

Yeah I looked that up once I saw the video, I actually hadn't seen that or heard of that before, but the idea didn't surprise me. Set probably deflection and if you could time the explosive on impact it would probably do the most damage.

First time I've seen it in a sim, looks great!:cool:

I guarantee you will love the Simpeds, mine only arrived two days ago and I dont know how I flew with my old rudders, worth every penny IMO, I hope CoD will be as good also.

Hi Oleg,

Nice videos!

I'm Vyrtuoz, the creator of Tacview. A flight analysis tool you probably heard about: http://tacview.strasoftware.com

I always wanted to support IL2 to see how modern flight analysis can improve WWII pilots' skills. But since IL2 data export abilities were reduced to the minimum I was not able to create flight recordings for Tacview by the past.

Will CoD offer more data export capabilities? For example, will it be easy to get aircrafts' coordinates through a script or a SDK?

It is possible to grant me access to a private beta or to a dedicated SDK so I can write an add-on to support CoD for its launch? (I can sign a NDA if required)

I sure hope this works out. It would be an amazing review and training tool. Good luck!

Here's a tip, don't log in on the forums for a week:) Seriously, I don't know why I'm still reading this thread. All I wanted was to see was Olegs update...oh! nice weather today, think I'll go out for a walk.:grin:

I like the music of the second demo very much, and the demo itself as well.

All times are GMT. The time now is 11:21 AM.
