Big-Pickle: aye, I remember there being some comment regarding hedgerows, but then again, a lot of things were said in those development threads.
The team must have a massive list of features which can be added or improved, and rumours are that many features are there, but haven't been completed by the team for inclusion in the sim....(or are there, but haven't been unlocked yet) ideally, development would be thus: -bugs are fixed so the game is nice and smooth -features are improved -the team announces new features, or present features which have been drastically changed e.g a new weather system, with realistic clouds (yes Dutch! the clouds are rather poor afterall  )-once the game has been improved to a level where it is rather awesome, tools can then be sent out to the community for an administered modding effort, or a community modding effort which won't affect online play (with the banning system in place, a modding community like SAS could propser nicely). hopefully this would enable the game to work it's way to becoming a stand-out BoB simulator. a man can dream

It seems unrealistic to simulate lots of smoke from fireplaces for a battle that was fought in the summer.

il2 as much as i like it isn't particularly good, kinda springish if you try hard, but works fine in il2. the first one although ugly, is pretty good colour wise for this time of year (april/may), but rubbish for summer, ie BoB, plus wrong crops for BoB. Clodo, if the trees were the right mix of colours (there far to light green), is actually passable, but the tress are all wrong really, and there loads of trees here in SE Kent.... I'm not really sure what the fields are supposed to represent either, but hey ho. Its a kinda generic 'fit' with some work on the trees, it would be by far the best imo.... heres some pics i took last summer (aug) when i was working, gives you some idea of the trees.    tress will always appear darker because of the fact they cast shadow on themselves.

Haze over London would be realistic. Have over all of England, not so much.

compared to other countries i've lived in its something i've always noticed, especially Australia. you can see it in the photos i've posted above from last summer, and there about as clear a day as you get. Clod does this really well. Last edited by fruitbat; 05-01-2011 at 06:57 PM.

The VFR scenery looks terrible in Kent, but looks much better in Wales , although there're no dynamic shadows, and no buildings, grass or trees on the ground. That 'add-on' cost the same as the CoD Collector's Edtition. The IL2 map still has those 'layered' forests and 3D trees, but of course was free. As for colour, here's a shot I just took out of the window with my phone (note dead palm tree from the frosts of December). The colour mix there matches quite well with CoD methinks.

Trees are the greenest now, than they'll be for the rest of the year as the leaves have just come out. They'll just get darker now, as the seasons roll on.
Its the fact that they cast shadow on themselves that makes them look darker anyway, some part is always in shadow...... Did i mention i'm a tree surgeon by the way, lol. Last edited by fruitbat; 05-01-2011 at 06:36 PM.
