"For sure we use most of the real recording sounds. On the ground, in flight, in cockpit.
And is not from the simple camcoder (apriory wrong), but the simulation of the human head. Search in internet to understand these principles. This is the most right way to make realistic sound..." - Oleg.

For those interested in what Oleg's talking about here, check out these Binaural and Holophonics (different but similar technology) video's. Headphones required.

Poor quality demo and explanation of binaural recording -

Doppler effect -

Stereo music compared to binaural music (probably just an imitation of the binaural effect but you get the idea) -

Some famous Holophonic recordings (6:36 onwards is essential listening) -

More Holophonics recordings Part1 -

**Part2 Fireworks, but imagine if something similar to this were used for the ground war in SOW -


P.S.

Anyone care to calculate the size and borders of the BOB map, based on the sliders in the picture of London Oleg posted, or would that be cheating and taking advantage of Oleg's generosity in showing us the picture?

Well based on a beer infused guess and some very bad and most likely incorrect mathematics I came up with this:

Haven't thought of that, but I sure hope it's larger and to the East..I personal would like the Ansons to be able to fly patrols along the Dutch coast....and not forgetting the RAF Blenheims and possibly the ALA that made attacks in 1940 over Dutch soil trying to hold back the German forces..

Would there be a map for the Norway raids or just the BoB months...

Most rounds fired from rifled barrels will follow a tightly-spiralling trajectory.

An imbalance in the round will cause a wobble, much like a spinning top -- the technical word is precession. This wobble will mean the spin axis is not parallel to the direction of travel. Just as spin on a football causes it to swerve in mid-air, the interaction between the wobble, the spin and the airflow over the round will also cause swerve, only in a spiral pattern as the spin axis of the round is itself always shifting.

While modelling all this ballistically is probably not worth the effort, the spiral smoke-trails left by tracer rounds are real and would add a nice touch.

Duff, I agree, but the spiral is so small it's hardly noticeable.

As if you know? Are you a former BoB pilot? Did you ever see .303 tracer bullets fired from a plane in real life?

Man, the experts we have in here!

This is a complicated situation... For most of us, the only experience with "real" WW2 tracers we have is from WW2 guncams...So the woobling and some "f/x" we used to see, are artefacts from old camera...

And this is what many of us were "expecting " to see in a realistic sim...

But Oleg is reproducing what real pilots "saw" 65 years ago...ANd for some of us , it looks awkard...Reality does that sometimes ....

So few of us find it hard to accept that it wont be like they hoped it would....

Salute

We have video for that.. that's like saying you don't know what Mount Everest looks like unless you've been there.. ie. not true.
