Which is great, as I hate this kind of unreal propeller look - like many mods have it nowadays.

If I am not mistaking, we should be able to set the shutter speed ourselves and change this option in the game - what happens when we hit pause.
The modded propeller has a nice even blur, unlike the photoshop one. I certainly hope we won't get that one each time we pause or take a screenshot, even if the amount of blur varies.
The photoshop blur has a tell-tale 'rabbits ears' at the outer edges of the blur.

I hope it is just a WIP.

I just hope there is no blur on the moving blades as seen in flight.

This is a cinematic effect and in no way reflects reality.

I guess it's supposed to replicate what a camera shot would look like, and seems to do a good job at that (see below). Oleg has explained previously that shutter speed etc. will be factored in for propeller or tracer appearance when taking screenshots, and that would mean the blur is calculated automatically (propably using the same radial blur algorithm). I'm pretty sure though that this will be optional anyway.

Shouldn't make much of a difference when playing, in most screens we've seen a "correct" highly transparent spinner disk that is completely blurred as it should be.

I don't know what "Il-2" should have in common with 1940 and BoB. In my eyes that's a unhappily decision. Anyway, march 2011 sounds okay
