Wow, the water transparency and the ships look amazing...also, the trees look a hell of a lot better than in the last few shots.

I remember, just pointing it out. If the ground detail is as amazing as I'm beginning to think based upon the screenshots we've seen so far, this engine could easily manage to produce a game where players can participate in conflict from the air right down to ground or sea vehicle combat all at the same time online, given enough time and 3rd-party developers. Even infantry-level combat, if it was a bit less graphically detailed at that level than a dedicated FPS...it's a pity game developers haven't tried that kind of thing more often, like with Silent Hunter II and Destroyer Command.

I'm exctremely impressed of the level of details you are putting into this game!
It's more and more obvious that this piece of software will be used to a lot more than flightsimming.
I'm really astonished and amazed by these pictures!

You probably shouldn't because most of them will be british lol. Again...for all those waiting I recommend to read some books about BoB.

Amazing detail, thanks a lot Oleg&Team! I just saw a AMD directX11 trailer and was impressed by the tesselation feature. Does this feature make sense in Flight simulations? Are you thinking about implementing it in SoW?

How many faces do the ships have? Texture size?

Thanks for the update. Everything is coming along nicely
