August 6 2011 Development Update

Love the new look. Especially the new lighter cockpit, makes it feel less clostraphobic and more realistic. Could maybe do with a bit more contrast and slightly more color saturation on the wings but otherwise a great improvement!

Thanks Luthier.

I like the AFTER cockpit shots a LOT better.

The BEFORE shots with the harsh shadows look like the light source is from a pinpoint - or if the scene was lit by the sun during a solar eclipse a minute or so before totality. (yes, I have been fortunate enough to experience a total solar eclipse in good weather)

The AFTER shots look much more natural. The light source is a bit more difuse so that the lighting levels are not unaturally contrasty.

Keep up the good work.

Looks great. Love what you've done with the landscape.

Finally an update. thanks!
New colours look much better as before, they make the textures look a lot more realistic.

As I said in previous post, I prefer the after to the before. I personally think the after looks more realistic, the before sort of looks like you are wearing polarizing sunglasses. So perhaps that is the solution - if you like the after better, nip into Boots and grab a cheap pair to wear whilst playing.

the ligthsource of the sun IS a (not moving) pinpoint. Direct sunlight at clear weather makes harsh shadows. Only at distance the contrast may be washed out..
