I didn't use head phones. Now my dog wants his Liva-Snaps dog treats.


edit: BTW Alex, nice clip. I do like the surround sound the clip displays. I should have added that originally.

In SoW there is no such reflection, except on the picture of the full polished metal Spitfire screenshot, given to us by you long time ago.

So, here it is He-111:

The paint is reflecting the image of the surrounding environment. Also please listen the sounds of the video.

There should no be dust in to the air taken up by the propeller wash, if there is rain, or it was raining not long time ago. Please fix this in SoW. Thanks.

About sound... what I should listen? The poor compressed camcoder recording on the internal mic?

Good news about paint reflections!
About sounds I meant the engine sound and propeller sound. Sorry for miss-understanding. Have a nice weekend!

After listening to that I went back to the Olegs SOW video and rewatch it! I was blown away with the difference. It is really immersive with headphones on. You really get the feeling that the MG's are on either side of you. Completely different to listening to it on speakers!

This is about the most important update we've had!!!

I guess I'll have to budget for a decent set of headphones!


Cheers!

Agree...

So I for one am really expecting the release product of SoW vol I to be bigger, better, and just plain more than anything I can find anywhere right now.. or for the next few years..

That's right...there is none other that can compare right now, or for the foreseeable future. 1C does an excellent job all and all, so good in fact, that it leaves me wanting more. I want more, because I know they would do it right.

Oleg...I like this weeks up date, thanks!

I don't think it's necessary to repeat that...

the planes are gorgeous
the water is excellent
the cockpits are beautiful
the terrain is getting better each time
...

I think nobody doesn't agree with that and Oleg knows that and it's already been said so often.
Maybe I should do it like most of you.
Just put a smiley behind each sentence even if it's not hyperpositive and noone cares about it.

They aren't questions. Oleg doesn't have to reply to that. Besides, you often wrap your irrelevant question with some sort of veiled insult about how he's not managed to optimise the hardware or that some old game is way better already. Because you were asking about the windows at night and the grass we didn't get any answer on what is important, like wing vortex modelling.

No sh*t, they had to remove it, and now you can pick the "opposing force" instead.

Cute, isn't it?

Get BF2 and download the free Project Reality - that has insurgent and taliban factions in it. It's a lot better than BF2 but I suspect not as good as Arma 2.

It's a Hurricane. Do us a favour and don't post again.

Cannon rounds.

It is exact like these kind of tracers look in reality. And it is a Hurricane btw. I'm shure one day you will learn...

@ Hecke:

In one of your postings you asked Oleg "What is binaural sound?". Now that is a posting which just immediately disqualifies you as somebody I'd want to listen to any time in the future, which is why you ended up on my ignore list.

1. You should spend the two minutes it takes on Google to find out for yourself.

2. You shouldn't bother Oleg about it, because he has more important stuff to do than help you because you're too lazy to Google something.

You just wasted everybody's time (including mine writing this posting). At least I won't be bothered by you anymore, but please try not to waste Oleg's time again.
