Great shots.
What is the view distance for trees and objects now?

no disrespect towards Oleg (of course) but i'm pretty sure the first mod that wil come out for COD will be a color fix for the very bright green grass

This picture may not be the best source to compare to (obviously because the camera won't pick up a real picture) but a difference can be noted


Awesome update; your dedication to this sim is commendable.

Yeah the tracer smoke does look a little bit like it was done with the MS Paint 'airbrush' but I suppose that we'll have to wait for a gameplay trailer before we know what we're in for. I guess that there has to be a compromise somewhere because if there are 100+ aircraft then thats gonna be a lot of tracer smoke.. It's got to be good looking enough to work and not kill your PC at the same time.

Can't be too long before we start seeing the release version...

Like the look of the defiant

The Defiant was made just outside of Wolverhampton where I used to live & occassionally they have open days at the factory they were made at.

Oleg stop teasing us with these IL2 quality screen shots, even though we deserve it...

Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the pictures Oleg, please next week can we see just one screenshot with AA & AF on in DX11, this will surely help you sell this game instead of using the pics taken on Ilya's crap PC. (his words)

I have to say, great shots! I don't know who's idea it was (assuming it's Oleg, he represents more of the old school flight sim market) to sell the collectors edition, but I LOVE it.

Really looking forward to the title!

EDIT: Guys asking for higher rez/dx 11/ whatever pics...in time they will come. Don't rush an artist whilst he's trying to finish his masterpiece.

Thanks for update. Are those screenshots represent game at it's "almost final" state? If not what major changes/upgrades can we expect? For me it's a mix of excellent and mediocre visuals. I'm pretty sure lots of feats will be upgraded or added by moders, but I'm curious what can we expect out of the box.

PS. I've already pre-ordered collector's edition
