These ships are nice! I also like how the water extinguishes the fire.

I must have destroyed at least a dozen perfectly good airplanes trying to take a good screenshot of that ship. Should have done in Top Gun style.

No wonder SoW is taking that long when Ilya is crashing all the precious planes

Shame on you, Ilya

!

As you said, Top Gun style would probably be better. "Sorry Oleg, but it's time to buzz the tower"

Excellent screenshots, nice Hurri, amazingly modeled ships, Spitfire cockpit keeps teasing me... Ah, nothing unusual

As robtek already put it those are just the oxygen gauges.
The fuel gauge would be in the lower right corner of the instrument panel...

Ah, I wondered where I was going wrong all this time. I thought the oxygen smelled a little funny!! LOL

You do plan to use the specular map on the skins to represent the difference between metal and fabric, right?

Hello Oleg. Thank you for the update.
What are the advantages of DirectX over OpenGL?
I always thought that OpenGL was better.
At least it is in Il2.
Can you please explain?

excellent update.

I cannot imagine how the DX11 will look.

Thanks
