No yet. The grass eat enough that to give you great distance of drawing it.

Ok, but by now it looks not that good that grass is suddenly gone after a couple of metres distance.

I meant ground damage like deep bomb craters.

Is this still your "very bad" home computer?

"After a short" mans some several hundred meters?

We don't promised deep craters. They will be but not so deep. Limits in engine grid.
For the deep craters renderings with so great size of map modelled you will need to wait 4-5 new generations of computers that to make it in flight sim visible completely in 3D, but not in 3D+2D. Crater has way more polygons that any of the complex building. And it is irregular in form.

Oleg, any input as to what type of PC this was played on?

Hi Oleg!

Will we see only white coloured tracers, or other colours as well?

Thanks,

The end? It is only the beginning...

I like the map. It's neat, clear and functional and should make complex missions possible.
