Busy Building whilie I wait
 

I have been spending the past 3 months Building missions for online servers for IL2 COD (And having great fun doing it) as I would now rather wait to play the game in a stutter free environment, then be annoyed by the little things.

What you can do in the mission builder and coding is just fantastic. I just wish my efforts were usable in the games current state.

I have not been posting on here in months because I came to the conclusion of "Why Bother, just wait till the damn patches and Moscow add-on come out"

Not taking a dig at 1C you guys are working hard and total RESPECT! Love what you have done so far and Love what I can do in C#.

Anyway,

I came across a great picture and video 1c released about iL2 Cliffs of Dover. I had to post as I really hope this is what will come to us in next patch. Wishful thinking I know. I fear Dx9.0 graphics & colours will continue to dog this game.

What would make it worth the wait would be DX10 graphics with DX11 effects. Something that would use more than 20% of my GTX580 3g awesomeness.

God, I forgot how this game used to look.
Seriously some of the shots in that clip look like an entirely different game.

S!

Well the Frostbite engine will be next year only 64-bit..go figure ;)

Here is your flames :

You can see them in the screenshots in that thread, they was in the game, also you can see in that thread people bashing them as is usual in every update posted here.

I´m not saying that Madoxx tuned down the flames due the complains of these people but I think that what we have now is due to the jugglery done in the graphics effects trying to reach that unreachable realistic picture lost in these photo threads with a lot of pages of opinions, tastes and complains too.

What we have now ... The HDR is almost nonexistent, the bloom is there but is very low, and there a blue haze over all even at low altitude ... I'm not saying that the blue haze don't exist but that after sum all we have poor representation of the Chanel in summer time, the sun light is almost nonexistent for example.

The effects still there but are tuned down, you can see them stimulated out in this thread :

Buchon,

I agree, they are there just tuned way down. All the groundwork is done in having it in the engine an I understand why they are tuned down also, because it is best to build the new graphics engine then turn it all up again ( I hope ).

This was not a bash thread, just a look back and remind everyone just how much more we have awaiting us in the next patch and beyond. Now.... Back to scripting.

It is becoming increasingly hard to make an observation/comment on IL2CoD without sounding like being critical of this or that feature. Sadly very little to see here, except soap.

Those flames did not reached even the release date so I don't think that they are tuned down due the work in the graphics engine.

Like you I still hope for a return of those effects and a better lighting with a better use of HDR but I have more hopes in tweak it by my self, using an injector or tweaking the files.

It will not be the first game fixed by my self for my self.

Thanks Wolf, your work on the mission's is greatly appreciated:!:

I got something special coming for ATAG.

Hey I am in New Orleans from June 6-9. Anyone that way?
