I'm speaking of picture 3. It's a slow gameplay part and here it doesn't look convincing that grass is gone in that distance.
So Oleg can you tell me how deep and what radius is possible in BoB?

Oleg may I marry your daughter? I will just ask access to the SoW beta before, as a proof of her love

I would say you will see in thefinished product, otherwise create a new Card with gras render possibiliteis for SOW,

If you have Firefox as a browser there are several Flash Video downloaders available as plugins.

Great video! Love the sound and more impressively I loved the flying by the AI out in front... the Hurricane up ahead managed to get a killing shot and broke away. Looked great!

To me it looks as though the grass cut off is the mown runway. Beyond the flat strip grass texture appears again to a level consistant with the greater distance. Everything else is just amazing too. The video shows the game will be so much more natural and lifelike. Even the English accent is perfect for a lot of the people who were officers back then. Constructive critisism is great but I sort of wish people would remember it is a sim played on computers that have limited abilities that even Oleg can't overcome.

Nice!
thanks Oleg.

But with the RAF tracer, in gun-cam films I've seen, the tracer has had smoke-trails which are missing from SoW. Will these be added? I think it really adds to the immersion.

small caliber bullets with a smoke trail?

The Mg51 on my Tank sure never left a smoke trail.

Could be due to to modern powder?

Nothing wrong with that, but it's all about programming.
Computers have permanently developed better and better since the last 9 years. But SoW BoB doensn't look like 9 years better than IL-2.
Anyway, I can't wait to get my hands on that before christmas.
