Very nice update, thanks Oleg.

The towns are great, such detail..railings, lights etc. I'm blown away.

Clouds look fantastic too, and the coast with golf courses etc. Simply amazing.

I can't believe how your small team produces such a detailed product.

Well done and thanks for taking the time to keep us informed.

Looking great Oleg, thank you!

Next week could we see some bad weather? Maybe rain, and breaking out on top of an overcast?

Cheers!

Well I hope DX11 Offers Oleg's team some performance improvement but not at the cost of eye candy. The promise of DX10 fell flat to be honest. Tesselation could be really help out with cockpit frames guages wheels etc at no extra cost depending on your hardware.

I will also be interesting to see how well multithreading and multicore could help out the simulation. That's no easy feat to pull off correctly.

Hello,

I believe the German equivalent of "Tally Ho" is "Horrido". This too is an old aristocratic hunting term and was used by Luftwaffe pilots in WWII in a similar fashion to British "Tally Ho". This said, I humbly request that the German speech pack be change to reflect this (if there is time).

From the Combatsim forums:

Horrido is a Latin word meaning frightful or frightening. Perhaps the Luftwaffe meant for it to mean "Fear me!" You know, in a Samuel L. Jackson Pulp Fiction sort of way.
Ah, but alas, I really don't know anything . . . found this in (of all places) the EAW newsgroup:


quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Horrido is a hunting expresion used in [G]ermany. It is a greeting like "good afternoon or howdy...." and it is also used in letting someone live up (I think you don't say that in [E]nglish).... anyway , like the [E]nglish speaking say: "Hip hip" and the answer is "Hooray". German hunters say "Horrido" and the cro[w]d answers "Yo".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So, there you go

Just 5 screen shots.
Anyway I think someone will find interesting new details.
Are you crazy Oleg? This is the best update yet! The landscape really starts to look great now - even at altitude!

How about comparing it with an actuall 2009 flight sim release instead of whats 2010 flight sim IN YOUR MIND.




Feel free to compare ground details.


Edit: In a sence i understand what u mean but u cant compare flight sims with FPS like Modern Warfare for ex.

You're entitled to your opinion of course but personally I think you're dead wrong and/or need your eyes checking.
