+1 on the squadron mascot ;)

Lots of squadrons had them and it would make a great minigame to have a pet dog or pig that you have to avoid running over and feed periodically.

On a more serious note having persistent weathering or damage on a plane would add quite a bit. I'd love to get machinegun impacts all over my plane and have the textures in subsequent missions show "patches" over the spots where the bullets had hit. However, this may not be worth the programming effort. It might be good for bomber campaigns though (where crews served on the same aircraft for most or all of a tour).

Re-arm and refuel in under 8 minutes, eh? That is better than I would have thought.

As for the update, I say that it is just truly extraordinary!
Thank you Oleg for your continued dedication to make the best sim ever conceived.

Have a look at this:

IMO this is how some of England should be looking, and notice the fact that the tree-trunks are so obscured.

Thanks for the pics Oleg. The quality of your work is simply stunning.:shock:

Something new to me was the way the skin has been torn up around the cannon holes in that hurri - 3D damage effect...amazing.

In my opinion the aircraft skins are perfect - colours, weathering, lustre. The aircraft look so solid and real now. You really feel like you could reach out and touch them. The glass reflections make a big difference too.

I don't know about you guys but I'm going to be quite happy just sitting back and watching these beautiful machines in action. For me it's like history coming alive.

Well done guys, you really deserve an award for this ground breaking masterpiece.

One quick question please: Will the aircrew figures be seen gripping gun handles and yokes etc? I guess the modelling of this would be too difficult but you never know.

You are aware that you've just issued a challenge? ;) How's Roman, BTW. Already grey and shaking, cursing my name every day? :mrgreen:

Great update!
 
Great update as always!
Nice pics and cool effect, the covering "tape" over the MG's.

It would have been cool playing SOW:BOB in 3D^^

They are fantastic but is the spinner on the Hurricane a little too blunt or rounded off at the tip?
