Any useful info is good for the future as well as today.

Well said! ;)

Just my thought. Personally I think it's best to average out the effects seen in some videos, and then base this strongly around historical references. The pilots from the time would have had a pretty good idea themselves, and many have documented the effect ;)

I think all of you are taking this way too far. Blue flames instead of red or yellow and that's about it...Blue. Even the Daimler Benz flames are about the same blue and I don't think Maddox is going to fart around for the next six months getting his flames just so. Going back to 1940 to compare high leded fuels and their flames with today's low led fuels and their flames..Hilarious! Is it a flight sim or a flame sim?

Well done, Oleg et al! Storm of War is looking very nice indeed! I'm sure the community in large will really be thrilled with the attention to details. I know I can't wait!

I have a couple of DeviceLink questions (apologies if I've missed a relevant thread on this topic):

1) Will Storm of War support DeviceLink or some similar interface for data logging and sim-pits?

2) If so, could it I be so bold to make a humble request for a few parameters in addition to those currently available in DeviceLink 1.00?
- True Airspeed
- True Altitude
- Outside air temperature
- Static air pressure
- Angle of attack
- Total thrust force
- Total drag force

These parameters would be very useful in evaluating aircraft performance (specific energy, lift curves, etc.) and are similar to those parameters taken (or derived) on test flights of real aircraft.

I know what you mean.
I have always viewed it like this: there will always be forum members with specific knowledge in certain subject areas (like me with my RAF flight-gear collection) and when the teams asks for help in that area, there will usually be a lot of info, but not all of it is necessarily needed.
However, IMHO, more is better than less ;)
But I agree, it's just an effect and one won't notice if there is just a tiny bit too much blue...

Nice flamebait Oleg, it worked.

AdMan 12-12-2010 10:12 PM

yellow/orange/red at startup or when damaged

blue/white during normal operation

My question to community: isn't it too yellow? Maybe to add a bit red color in a mix with yellow? It is tunable really, so I would like to listen suggestions

I agree that the color is somewhat too yellow (I agree with what Adman said above), but the biggest thing I've noticed is that the flash from the exhaust on the side of the fuselage is overdone. It should be minimal to nonexistent.

If I was Oleg I would post up-dates that, I knew, where flawed...that way the nitpickers are too busy squabbling over "red or blue flames" (example), as opposed to moaning over release dates, computer spec's or whatever subject they think will get the forum community in a "tizzy"... lol


Its time to keep the "kiddies" busy...the adults are working.

;) ;) ;)
