Someone, please, show Ilya a bin: the man didn't know what to do with that empty half-liter Coca-Cola plastic bottle, and he is putting me on my nerves by playing, shaking and turning it around all the time...

EDIT: Ah, he finally put it to rest at 5:00

LOL I was there the day that video was made,and sat in that very chair to fly SoW/BoB.

Anyone here has programmed, modelling? YES a Flight Simulator? NO

study the shaders language? YES
done Object Oriented Programming? YES
know about Design Patterns?? YES
done UML diagrams? YES
look at source code of another game, sim? YES-NOT A SIM
Put the hands over C++, OpenGL, DirectX? ALL OF THE ABOVE
do a network code? YES
do a modelling job (with Lod, UV mapping, RESEARCH, rigging, animations, etc, etc, etc, a lots of etc)? YES
hit the head once and once with things that don´t work as you expected? ALL THE TIME
tried all the above and more with the added problem of a probably low budget? IF I CAN"Y AFFORD TO DO IT, I DON"T DO IT
then you can talk. But in that moment you don´t want to talk, because in that moment you understand all the job behind the "mask" that you see when playing IL-2.

I respect Oleg's work very much and know what is involved in projects like this and appreciate any info...BUT, posting excuses and half-truths believing there is nobody out there who has knowledge about these types of projects is not good either.

A project such as this just that is supposedly being worked on full-time, cannot take 6 years to make and be profitable to any involved.

Much of the negativity has to do with past misinformation concerning PF, SOW etc.

Thank you for the update and answers. When the game comes out I'm sure it will be jaw dropping!

Luthier +1. Nice to get some news from someone who seem to know what he is talking about. But in the same breath I would also like to know what your connection to Maddox Games is? Are you working for RRG studios? Sorry if this is a stupid question, just currious..

[96th_Nightshifter]

Luthier is in charge of RRG unless I'm mistaken; also his name is on the front cover of your 1946 box right beside Olegs

[HenFre]

So Ilya and Luthier are the same person Aha.. Did not know that, sorry..

He's the guy in the video with the Coke bottle. Ilya

wow look great, reporting for duty sir

[Feuerfalke]

Good Lord.

I posted before that after the next updates people will rant even more quickly and more violent, but I must confess I utterly underestimated some of you folks.

This has nothing to do with wanting information or feeling left in the dark any more. This has become a completely nonsense bashing of everything and anybody, showing complete disrespect even to those working on their weekends to get that sim out for you.

And now luthier was so kind to give you an update and an insight on the work going on and you have nothing better to do than tell them how their work has to be done and call him a liar?

If there isn't such a thing for PC-games, there is now: A difference between fans and hooligans. IMHO some of you crossed the red line by far and I'm really ashamed that luthier and Oleg have to read through this.

You may call it brown nose-talk. I'm just shocked about the complete absence of simple things like respect and good manners. Your luck that I am not a moderator here....


Thanks for the update, luthier and Oleg. The detail on the planes, internal and external are awesome!
