Spasiba!
 

Thank you Oleg and team for the update.

Is that a T2 tanker the Spit is flying over?

About the texture
The aircraft skin texture looks similar to the canopy's glass texture with the similar reflected light at the top of the plane in such a case.It can be found in many former screenshots,looks like the the plane's back has been over polished.I'm not sure if it is true in real situation,but it looks something improper at the first impression.

and if possible,keep on developing diverse glass textures.They are now monotone(the canopy glass,the gun sight glass,etc.no distinction...),or shall I say it's effects are a bit lighter and need an increased performance(I'm not sure,maybe weathered effects too?),in brief,it doesn't suit the highly detailed/weathered cockpit well.(Maybe in a dynamic demonstration,it looks ok.)

Thank you Oleg.

Top gun stlyle?:cool: Is that upside down while listening to some adrennaline pumping music? :grin: Of course in the current il2 you could of flew through the rigging spaces upside down. Shame on you for having so much wonderful detail .Hahahahaha. Thanks again for all your efforts! S~

In the first ship damage img it looks like the sea water is on fire. This may not be the case, but it looks good, and was common. Will there be any oil slick or floating debris modeled?

Looking great....
 

PPPPPllllleeeeeeeassssee o please though, lets not have "ghost planes".... will we be able to see our arms and legs when flying?

Also, I'm greatly hoping all 4 of my processor cores will be put to use for this......

Thanks!

Hi Oleg,

that spitfire cockpit looks absolutely fantastic !

Question: will we be able to move the pilot head (meaning the view point of the player) in the cockpit forward/backward and then lock that position in place ? (still allowing rotation left/right and up/down, as well as lateral leaning to look beside the nose or fuselage of plane, but keeping the forward/backward head position locked)

my reason for asking is this: in the current il2 the default head position does not let you view the mirror while looking straight ahead, unless you set a wider field of view (which then functions as a zoom-out making all distant planes and ships look smaller)

somebody made a small addon prog for il2-1946 which fixes this, it allows you to move the head position of the pilot to be moved slightly back, letting you see the mirror (but the cockpit gauges then look slightly smaller because you are leaning back, which is fine), but it does not change the "field of view" (FoV) setting, so distant objects like planes and ships still look the correct sizes.(i can look up the url if you are not familiar with that little free addon program)

hope you understand what i mean :)

thanks for all the hard work

@spinnetti . good one m8 :)

realistic looking water smoke and ships is more like this IMHO:
