SOW: your thoughts on clickable cockpits and realistic start-up

So be immersed in another sim?


I'd love it if everyone who keeps bleating about everything they need on this thread would go back and read what Oleg has said in interviews and then try and understand what he's saying. I'm hearing a minimum of respect for the man, just gimme, gimme, gimme.

The conclusion that I draw from Oleg's words are:

1. We will someday have a third party give this to us

2.Oleg does like function bind to key

3.He does not like the mouse click thing

4.He wants to attract MSFS people to his product, so maybe "third party" advanced engine management will be much sooner, rather than later. Especially since the recent fall, or demise of MSFS

I was hoping we were moving this argument away from the merits of click-pits (which as an input mechanism are a matter of taste) and towards the merits of making SOW-BOB a realistic and immersive combat flight simulator - something that has truly moved to another level...rather than simply being IL2 1946 with really really really really good graphics...

Lets be honest i'm never going to see the lovingly rendered shovel in the firemans hand as he feeds coal into the steam trains engine as i fly over it at 400mph and 300 feet am I?

But I will notice if my engine cuts out as I haven't switched my fuel flow from one tank to another won't I?

I'd love it if a third party was able to add this, among other things. I fly offline, so it does make a difference for me being able to start from scratch.

As for the lovingly rendered shovel , Oleg has said that he wants people to be able to use SoW engine to make documentary footage with... kind of like the stuff you might see in Dogfights, but with realistic flight modelling, and hopefully without that stupid 'intense' voiceover. So I think that's supposed to be why they're going berserk with the ground objects.

I think there is a lot more to it than that.

We all need to keep open minds.
