I'm impressed by the locomotive, the tracks, the terrain surrounding it -- all to be viewed from a few hundred simulation-feet or more while traveling over 200 simulation-mph. Astonishing attention to detail in a flight sim.

Default And...the hero of the day is...Foo'bar...

Foo'bar deserves a "Medal of Honor", or "Pour Le Meritt" at least!
Oleg, great job...have no words...I do believe that these pictures form the "Update", are from some recent airshow...maybe Duxford...I dont know...
~Cheers!

It looks awesome.

What do you think about the runway in this picture?
Is that the way runways looked like?

For me the runway looks blurred and like a texture of an old game. Actually it looks the exact same like in IL-2.

Full cockpit vs Wonderview:- In IL-2 there is either Full cockpit or gunsight and sky. Nothing inbetween. It would be so good if there was a third option.

To Oleg- Will/can there be a player defined option to set the in-cockpit view at 65% (or so) opacity, to make it semi-transparent?
So pilots can still have more "sky" but also can have the feeling that they are still flying in a beautifully rendered fighter plane?

The cockpit opacity settings would be amazing to have... No longer will we have to choose between dynamic gameplay (Wonderview) and immersion (In cockpit)... We could have both.


ADDITION: I asked the the guys on the forum to give suggestions and Xnomad made a simple and clever one... There were concerns that an inbetween view would cause less FPS... Xnomad suggested that we keep the cockpit on 100%
and keep tracking the ememy ID through the cockpit... I have made samples of both suggestions and I'd like to ask you Oleg and team to PLEASE answer this question/ request.

I have also added some direction and lead markers...
Notice how the direction and lead markers fade the further distance
away the target gets...



I'd be happy with an answer like:-
1. Yes, we have planned something like that
2. No
3. Maybe, in a future update

Not too sure what the technical implications of this request is but I had to ask anyway.

The updates are looking better and better every week.Have a great day and
thanks you for making this sim happen...
I believe that the issue of no cockpit view was shown in an update maybe a year or two ago. If I remember correctly, we'll be able to have realistic-looking dials, we'll be able to move them around on the screen, resize them, choose which dials we want, and we'll be able to set their opaquity. So if this hasn't changed since then and I'm remembering correctly, then that's what you can expect.

Yeah, right. Almost "like drawn by child - in watercolors" right?


S-T-O-P I-T!

You don't know what is WIP and what not. Oleg has the right sense for polishing the details, he just proved that with todays screenshots.
However, it is possible, and in your case very likely, that you'll not be satisfied in whatever form this game hits the shelves.
But don't despair, there's help:
First: You don't have to buy it
and 2nd; a piece of Yoda's advise:
"shut the f*** up - you must, young padawan."

Cheers.
