Thanks for the update.
News of the sound improvements is good news.The ground looks much better, I assume the poor cockpit in the pics is due to the alpha status currently?

The main areas of development are:

1. Graphics.
2. Sound.
3. Physics.
4. Models.

That is great news!!!

Thanks for the update. As its work in progress at the moment I'm reserving judgement. Personally I'm waiting for the weather changes. Looking at the cloud shadows on the ground I think the landscape will look more realistic when we have more clouds.

interesting news.

and I intend to do the same as Bonkin, I want to see how it 'll play out before I'll comment further.

more performance... overall excellent news, my faith is with this guys. they seem to be taking it seriously after all.

i see better colour grading in rivers and ocean water, that combined with the terrain tuning will make a world of difference in the landscape.
will we get the clouds this time around??

from me you can take all the time you need.I had faith from the beginning, still have and wil have.I am sure in the end, all those whiners will be silent
Thanks for this hope giving update

Hmmm.....I'm not sure about the looks of the 'before and afters', it looks as though someone just turned the brightness up and contrast down. A lot. But I accept it requires tuning.

The in-cockpit atmosphere of Cliffs is its best feature in my view so I hope this isn't going to tone it down too much.

But that said, it's extremely gratifying to at last have an updated progress report.

The news of the sound plus graphics and all the other features being possibly beta in the 'proverbial' is getting me pretty excited.

So thanks chaps.

Cheers luthier! I don't know if the new landscape colours are more realistic or not but I do know that they are kinder to my eyes . Great work guys! Looking forward to the patch.
