The cockpits are dark and mysterious like a pre-teen gamer will love.
All the dark shadows are too much The rain on windshield is too much I'd say it looks pretty good otherwise. |

Clearly this is a continuation of assets from Birds of Prey - a port.
Given that, they have a long way to go. The console version has nowhere near the attention to detail as 1946, it's buggy, the flight models were somehow messed up on a quite a few planes (ta-152, fw190, p51, p47). You can't change weapon convergence, fuel load, or weapon loadouts. In fact, some versions (K4) of the 109 forced you to fly with gun pods - no option to remove them. They used one cockpit for every plane type and even subbed the p47 cockpit for the p51. No selectable difficulty menu like 1946 - just 3 set in stone settings. The damage model (while looking graphically nice) was simplified, for instance if you tried to belly land - the game was programmed to just make you blow up if you don't land: 1. on a runway, 2. with gear down. Belly landings were impossible. Online play even in sim did not require you to RTB and land to collect max points for kills. Also the multiplayer system did not have a dedicated server - you played a match with the people who joined intially, if they left, no one can join in middle of match to even teams - poorly done. They have a LONG way to go to get this as fun as IL2 1946 is, even longer to get this where SOW will be. Last edited by fuzzychickens; 10-23-2009 at 05:44 PM. |

If you look at the cockpits in the sim hq thread vs the SOW updated spitfire cockpit , there is no comparison.
http://files.games.1c.ru/il2pict/grab0100.jpg And the BOB SOW update is stated to be a WIP . . . so its going to be better when SOW BOB comes out. Now that others have said it is birds of prey, the graphics in SIM HQ do look console-ish. They look like IL-2 1946 modded graphics cockpits, nothing near the SOW spitfire Nothing to worry about. |

I am 99% sure that the 109 cockpit is dumped form IL2.

I'd love to see the requirements to run that with all the bells and whistles with playable frames with graphics like that.

Hey Zakk, those overcast clouds look better than anything I've seen in a flight sim before. Where are these pics from? The ones I came up with by googling for Jet Thunder aren't nearly as nice.

![]() This isn't even the game lol! Try these instead. Still not bad, but not quite SoW. There isn't even self-shader: ![]() ![]() ![]() Looks more like LOMAC. It's very interesting though, and thanks for pointing our attention to it. |
