Thanks Luthier for posting.

The Bf 109 is awesome. I was like "Woot!" Bf 109-izzy in the hizzy!

Tell Oleg my regards and hope he feels better soon. And you're doing fine filling in for him.

Posting stuff regularly is great.


And the details are great compared to IL-2, and thanks for the explanation regarding the quality of pics.

Also what is really great is the actual game on lowest settings will be better than these.




Take time to read the first post. I know I'm guilty of skipping the text, going straight into the pics, OH and AH -ing (amazed and dazed at the armada on the stage) then formulating all these QA type questions . . . but

L already dropped it:

"Remember that these are all work in progress. Remember, we work with this game every day of the week. We know what looks good and what doesn't, believe us. The grass is too bright, or the horizon too blocky because it's not final yet, because it takes work - not because we're blind and we can't see it.


Once again, this is work in progress. All shots taken in DX9, the simplest render we have. "


And then go into a post about the coloring, grass, RAF pilot in bf 109 etc . . .

Please don't be Captain Obvious and tell the devs the sky is blue.

Throw up something useful like the tidbit about German airfields or ask a legit question like the one where a screen shot would best explain it maybe get into the mind of the devs . . .

If not, just simply just offer thanks. Or at least do something funny. I was rolling with the English and French grass part. The color tags in the code documentation probably are in latin with the specific species name

But I do notice there's less 'captain obvious threads than before' so thats a good thing too.
