+ 1. Well, surprised by this shot too : looks very 2D as the more simple ones of Il-2 IMO. :confused:

The one over the city is great, the wellies formation is awesome, the others near the ground are superb, great color and bright.

Thanks a lot for this unexpected Fri update, i wish you and your team and your family a great Xmas and new year, have fine holidays ! (But not too large please :grin: ;))

This all depends of lighting. Simply too dark inside and no lighting direct rays for this side. In some positions when freezed we may see this effect. Rare.

Thanks for the continuing updates!

A very merry xmas to all..

Hans! Are you OK back there?!
 

Oleg,
Do I see the rear gunner of that damaged 110 slumped over? If so, nice work. ;)
Flyby out

Superb ! I was hoping exactly this. Thanks for the answer. :cool:

I was forgetting : Very nice the fact we now can select some things/views with a clever tool, direct ingame or replay. Cool :)

Wonderful pics Oleg, thank you. The Tiger Moth shot is outstanding. I'll spend hours just enjoying taxiing around such beautiful airfields!! And the long brown grass/wheat ... wow.

Here's to a great 2011 for us all ;).

Happy Christmas all

Thanks for the update Oleg and have a happy xmas and new year!

Oleg could you give us a little detail on the progress of SOW?

Excellent, thanks for the quick response Oleg.

Great shots and some nice features again - getting better every week, nice to see that the lighting is still being tweaked and how small changes can make a major difference here.

One question: some older shots and I think the last video showed a subtle reflection on surfaces with steep viewing angles. This looks great but hasn't made it into any of the recent shots. Any chance this effect will be featured in the final version? I think it makes a big difference towards photrealistic appearance, so I keep my fingers crossed...

Anyway, thanks Oleg and enjoy the weekend!


(and for the record because it comes up every year around this time: Orthodox Christmas is still two weeks away, so don't be surprised about an update today, and likewise if there won't be an update in two weeks - just FYI, hope that's not too OT ;))
