You can however do things like start the engine lower the undercarriage and stuff like that with the mouse.

This is great though and from what Oleg said in the OP:

Of course the allied aircraft were far more forgiving.

If we're able to do this on-screen with a mouse drag then I'm one even happier camper.

[QUOTE=Skarphol;191867]Fantastic pictures!

But one should really not be able to see such a reflection in that gauge in pic nr. 9. The point of view is above the stick, so one should only see the stomac and crotch of the pilot.
Hm. I was the first to whine about this weeks update. Not good.

When you put the mouse on the lever and press button you may move the mouse... and the lever will also moving.

Will it be possible to turn off this popup line (perhaps with a toggle on/off button)?

It sounds very useful when learning the cockpit of an aircraft, but once it has been learned I would like to be able to turn the popup line off.

Thankyou

I think from now and on its time to stop mumbling and winning about anything simply hold our breaths it is very - very close.

Oleg (IF and only IF] you have any time can you show as some of this pics with bullet damage in next updates?

Thanks anyway ;)

Oleg's answer is on page 6.

After years of playing IL-2 I can recognize many or even most gauges in many cockpits but sometimes I'll find myself in a Russian or Japanese plane and there is no way for me to figure out what a certain gauge is aside from wildly guessing. At least with the German ones it sometimes makes sense in English. I'm good at guessing but still...

This is great. Thanks! And thanks for the update...the cockpits are looking superb!

looks bloody fantastic, it always strikes me the difference between the functional offices of the luftwaffe fighters, built obviously as a machine of war, and the nearon kit plane cockpits of the british fighters, they definately have that cottage industry feel to them. it may only be me that sees them in this light but who cares, all that matters is that these screen shots convey that feeling to me perfectly, as if i was sitting in them!

Great work
cheers

The detail in screenshots = amazing.

Will instrument lighting be available?

I don't know about other countries, most American aircraft (especially Navy instruments were in red).

The night vision thing was a big deal, especially on ships. All Navy aircraft had red instrument lighting.
