Oleg Maddox's Room #2 QUESTIONS & REQUESTS TO OLEG ABOUT BOB SOW

[1078Audie]

Hi first off thanks for all the hardwork on IL2 we appreciate it.

my Question is about the briefing screen... I think alot of people would like to see the ability to access recon photos and extra briefing goodies from the briefing screenany way this is going to be implicated or could be in SOW? i have been making missions and recently started messing around with recon photos and the like creating more intricate briefings. Thanks again

If possible please, I'd like to see the same kind of info in the briefing as was common in WWII:

Course, speed, height, winds, expected cloud cover, known threats etc.

And the ability to print it out would be great too.

Thanks!

From the brief video clip shown of the Spitfire, the lighting effects are outstanding as is the interior modeling.

Looking outside of the cockpit, the flare off the sea looks fantastic, as do the clouds in the distance.

Regarding the clouds and atmospheric effects, do you expect there to be columns of smoke rising from burning cities that reach and extend through cloud level?

Will it be possible to have smoke drifting over the landscape at ground level?

Lastly, can the weather effects simulate thick ground fog so that it is almost impossible to see the end of the runway?

Thanks, and really looking forward to this being released one day, cheers, MP.

Nobody notice that the best aircraft of Wings of Prey is the bf 109 (so nice of fly, like a spit, including the 109G6 whit cannons in the wing), spitfire (nice like always) and some Russian aircraft??? And the more crappy are the Mustang P51 (stall all the time, whatever I do, spins out of control WAY too easy), the P47 (is like fly a B17 and I can’t up the nose) and the Focke Wulf FW 190 have a similar problem like the P51

My ask is if oleg going to take some of this types of plane movements and maneuvers for the Storm Of War or this ( Wings of Prey) are not so real for him

I don't think Oleg will be using a game that is a step back from Il-2 as a simulation of aircrafts' behaviour as a template for SoW...no need to worry about that. At the very worst it will be as good as Il-2, I'm sure. We already know from the debug text on some of the screenshots that the damage modeling is more detailed.

I'm still relatively new here so there must be something that I haven't got yet but really, I haven't seen any response from Oleg to any of the questions lately. My question posted a while ago didn't get any love. What's the point of posting questions to Oleg here? It seems like a black hole.

There is a thread that has floated on this forums for months about 3D. You'll find answers there.

Look at the horizontal bar above and click on search.

I'm familiar with forum/bulletin software in general, even was doing admin for couple of fora way back. Just that this thread "question to Oleg" implies "answers from Oleg" as well and I am just surprised that it isn't that way but still there are people continue to post questions.

Thanks for the tip, I did started a thread recently about sterescopic 3D SOW BOB and got a few responses from other users here but never had a direct yes/no answer from the devs either.

Anyway, I'm no longer interested in what the devs have to say about S-3D at this point since there are simply just too many good games that work well in S-3D presently and I just don't have time to play them all.

There are few answers from the developers because few questions are worth answering.

Most of them are either repeated questions already answered or are answered by members that know the answer.

The good ones usually get a reply

Distand got a point, numerous people asked questions about the Soundengine etc. but no awnser so far.

If it DirectX based Windows will completly proces it in it Kernel and we wont have SoundHardware Acceleration and Effects.


And will the game come with a 64 bit .exe so it can make better use of the Memory on 64 bit systems?

Think i been asking that for a year or so but no awnser to it, not to anyone as far as i know.

Seems that no one really awnsers the questions in here, i would think atleast 1 person of the Oleg SoW team could read trough this once in a while and awnser some questions...
