I see your point. The windows of the houses further down on the right have quite distinct framing though, do you know why this would be?
I'm not very good with the techy side!:)

What Oleg said before is craters will be 2D, but with an effect to make them look 3D, and vehicles and aircraft will interact with craters correctly.

Great update love the second set of pics. How long before we get a video update?:grin:

taking an educated guess i think they will use a displacement or bump map which effectively models them.

What a fantastic update! Everything looks soooo awesome. The grass and everything like that looks great, and to think this is WIP?! The ground vehicles lok smashing, and I never thought I'd find myself saying that a shadow looks out-of-this-world! :)

The only think that doesn't look up to current standards is the terrain from high altitude, but of course this is WIP, as Oleg stated. I can imagine that there is every possibility that even if it doesn't look as good as, say, WoP on release, this could soon change so it isn't something to worry about IMO.
I can't praise how this looks enough.

Oleg, will the smoke look smoother as it spreads? I only ask as there is a dinstinct difference between the thicker smoke and the same smoke after it has dissipated (if this is the right word to use). But it's only a minor thing on a really impressive update.

Photorealistic? We're almost there :D

Thanks so much for this update. Without doubt, the best set of screens ever - and I said that last week! Everything is looking stunning. Can't wait.

The pilot in the Spit (first set of images, 2nd thumbnail) looks like he's pinned into his seat by G forces - awesome.

All I can say s that I've got screen shot 2 as my desktop picture.

Thanks for the update.

Great Spitfire picture and update overall.

Thanks!

I wonder why nobody notes the 3 different smokes/leaks in the background of the Spitfire-Shot. Considering how many times this has been asked before...


Any hint about the pilot-figures in the QMB?
