Nice shadowing on the trees. Even the bark detail is a nice effect. Those cottages look real enough that if they were in the U.S. I could smell the apple pies sitting on the window sill.

My interest in the Blenheim just increased. Very unique looking pit.

Thanks Oleg. Appreciate the update.

Have a good weekend all.

That's interesting, but I am looking forward to seeing the new ground textures and model from the plane cockpit, as those one are not very promising

S!

Nice shots, once again.

The graphical level seems similar to ArmA (Armed Assault) from 2006 or so (imagine there being grass rendered as it should). That game engine was tweaked to be seen from grass level, not from the air.

Think about how crappy things always look in flight sims as soon as you lose some altitude. A lot of this detail will not be visible for the most part when we fly in SoW - but for once(!) the ground detail will be retained or even get better as we fly lower. If your computer can handle it

If anything will make me buy a new graphics card, this will be it.

Hi Oleg,

From an immersion standpoint I am very curious about the farmers, villagers etc. that live in these dwellings. Will SOW introduce civilians, if so how, and how will the game address the danger of their being hurt in air raids?

My gosh... very excellent

Thankyou for the frequent updates.

I'm sure that the finished product will hold many surprises not seen in these glimpses of the work in progress.

Thanks again.

When?
