Evening gentlemen,

Another fruitful week comes to an end. Oleg's got a hell of a flu, so I'm doing a update for him. Apologies for making some of you suffer as you waited for your fix.

We've done a lot of stuff this week, enough for a few updates. Today we're focusing our new and improved aircrews.

Also a little bit of fancy flying (you can collide with each one of those wires).

boom first :)

cool guys flying these planes :) i like the look on his face parachuting down :)

the plane could have a few more polys. the contour is quite edgy. polysmooth+1 & optimize lawl :)

reboom second

Awesome (crap, have to wait 13 seconds to reply)

2nd place was stolen from me

Thanks for the Update

:)

Very nice screenshots but for the love of god start using AA + AF

This is looking so good; the crew look real! :D Question; will the effects for tracers be 3D or 2D (currently they are 2D in Il-2). I'd love to see how the tracers smoke trails could look and react in game.
Regarding fire; does it spread? This is too much to ask, I know, but I just wanted to know. I think I read somewhere that fire could spread and so I am curious if it starts out small and grows in size (as the fire in those shots looks lethal)

What
 

I think I saw Oleg bail out in that last image:grin:

Great images!

...I wonder if that last shot shows that the crew tumbles on their way down? :grin:

Awesome photos!!... Love te 4th one

Thank you for the post. Keep Going!
Good Job!
