Now I wish they'd do the same for the ground effect. If the plane explodes on a shallow angle, the fire from fuelspray should go in the direction the plane was traveling creating a "napalmstrike" effect. Right now the explosion and smoke goes up like a miniature nuke :p which is okay, if the plane went vertically into the ground. The crater texture would also in theory vary between a hole (like now) or a long skid-crater type thing in the direction of the crash. Makes it all the more authentic  |
I hope this to. Guess it has something to do with rendering/fps etc.
Maby some day.
