OK, now that's enough. I frankly don't care who started it, but can you two please try and sort this out. This poisenous banter between you two needs to stop. I'm really tired of seeing it and I'm sure Oleg is too. If you feel so enraged, please please try and take it out somewhere else, and not here.

They can't help it :) There will always be some "special" folks out there :)

The rest of us... the silent majority enjoy the Friday updates and the really nice screen shots. Good enough to use as desktop wall paper. Whatever pictures you'd like to show us... show. Most of us appreciate the efforts and the work involved.

Now that's incredible... like that soooo much :o

***OT: Having read this thread I think people should be happy with what they get from Oleg and stop complaining... too many childish impatient and spoiled folks around at times. Sorry to say that. :(
I don't wanna sound negative so I'll refrain
Don't feel free to quote me on this as it's not my intention to spoil this thread as some parts of it already are***


Love the updates as always... thx a lot Oleg and crew ;)

the only general comments as "constructive feedback" about the most recent glimpses we get from the high altitude shots just seen, is that imo the current color pallet is to pastel and soft in tones (which is easy to fix and i am sure oleg and Co are aware off)

what DOES look good about it is much more interesting, scenery density looks about right (forest cover etc, rather then sparing use of trees with no hedges by roads and fields etc, as seen in some recent low alt shots), the terrain contour of the recent shots also looks good (something we havnt seen much of so far)

and what you are missing in all this is that the shots are from a mission in progress with multiple planes in the air and actual combat, its not an art exhibition for scenery paintings. oleg would be much more interested in seeing if the frame rates are decent then to see if the shade of green on the fields is right

did you really miss all that ? no you didnt, you actually know it. but instead you post your usual negative crap DELIBERATELY.

I agree my friend, i have asked him to pm his attacks and to keep it out of the forums but I guess he like an audience.

Remember when the Dev updates where untextured, rough models in a
basic realtime render?

Complaining about the updates now makes as much sense as complaining
that the untextured Do-17 in the first updates was purple all over.

It's a work in progress.

Do you really think that Oleg and his team are blind and only you can see
what still needs work?
Do you think what your looking at is what the finished product will look like?

Of course not!

It's silly to complain that an untextured model is purple and it's silly to complain
that an uninished landscape/plane/effect/sound/ etc. is one thing or another.

Thank you Oleg for posting this update, including the video, even though you said it was time consuming and you were too busy.

Please note that there are people here who appreciate the work that you do and also understand that what you're posting isn't mandatory.

Exactly. :)


Btw. hi there Letum, nice to see a post from you in a while.

S!

Next week Oleg should post BLANK screenshots and a video with STATIC on it only for like 10 minutes :evil: There are some things that people seem to stick to, clouds and terrain. Again many fail to see the subtle changes in many of the pics..like the correction of lighting etc. I bet terrain or clouds are worked on but not shown yet. Do you remember Oleg mentioning he does not want to show too much as it is WORK IN PROGRESS and due competitors.

SoW has been under works a long time, gone through changes and all that. It is close to a release now and Oleg & Team has it covered what to do with their new sim. His comment about people was spot on, but seems the sim community are like that and we still wonder why simulators are a niché and not much produced :rolleyes:

Let's just sit back, enjoy the ride and soon fly SoW :) Have a nice weekend all!

eww jeez, all syrupy now ?

and that means you can add being a liar to your job description to, because you havnt :) not of course that there is anything interesting to "discuss" with you, because there is no substance to your "participation" here in this forum, neither is there something you can "resolve", because that is not why you are here at all

you NEVER post technical information here, dont contribute to aviation, ww2, or il2 or BoB factual discussions or help newcomers to the forum out. the ONLY thing you do here is complain, and if you didnt make those negative posts your participation here would be zilch !

To be fair, Tree might post things that some people disagree with, but he never makes personal attacks on forum members here, which i thought was a banning offence?...though it seems people can post stuff like this...

"you'r a a whiny little bitch Tree, and also a coward"

...and the mods do nothing?

Anyway...back to the topic...

Myself...i agree with Tree...the landscape when compaired to the fantastic and beautifuly made aircraft and ground models, the landscape looks below par and so far to me, and nothing like England.

I made a post on Sim hq here...
http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.ph...3100294/2.html



Im hoping as Oleg has said that this will improve, im sure it will.

But as i see it right now the landscape is the weak link(visually anyway).

As others have said when we see DX11 high res videos with AA and AF we can make a better judgment on how the final landscape will look.
