And the landscape looks fantastic in that video too

[Insuber]

Well this means that they spent the last 4 years to remove the nice clouds and degradate the landscapes

Russians! They do everything backwards!

Just get the turbulence and atmospheric conditions right, who cares about the visuals

[airmalik]

Either we're just seeing a sliver of what's already been developed for SOW or the planned atmospheric conditions as shown in the old SOW video (below) turned out to be too ambitious.

- Real Life weather and clouds
- Authentic turbulence and atmospheric circulation unique for each cloud type
- Weather conditions changing in-flight
- Moving storm fronts and changing weather throughout the day
- Changing, moving weather, and location dependent air masses
- Overcast
- Clouds move and change shape due to wind

I'll be on cloud 9 if these actually make it into SOW.

All these wish we had this and wish we had that postings remind me of my wife shopping. I can't stand going shopping with her, or even spending time with her when there is a chance she'll shop.

My gosh almighty the more she looks the longer it takes, and the more of those little paper bags with handles pack my trunk. All stuff that is just more stuff.

So, my friends I would just hope Oleg isn't shopping. We are all so anxious for the SOW to release.

It would seem, everyone is losing track of one important thing.
Oleg made all kinds of graphic releases as addons for IL2. It's a great way to improve the sim, and make money as well.

I know the graphic stuff will come, no sense to worry over it.

[airmalik]

Not much else to talk about until the release then.

I hear you about the little paper bags with handles

The landscapes are better now, if you see them in HD. The landscape in the video is the same as il2.
