Will we be able to use the cranes? I know its a flight sim but it would be cool if we can drive them and give more diversity to the sim!

Oh sure, in our next add-on, BoC, Battle of the Cranes.

Our cranes are actually animated, they turn their heads, the winches move, i.e. they kind of look like they're doing something.

Thanks for the update pics, great!
.. Can't wait to get my hands on a copy of SoW once it's released.

Well, it is all looking really great, I love the way the new detailed aircrew really help to bring the aircraft to life.

Regarding the video, please dont hold back, bring it on!

I'd love to see a video of one of the aircraft being started up on the runway, and running the engine up, from in cockpit and outside.

Any chance Luthier?

Hi Luthier,

Thx for the screenies! One question: will you solve the issue of the engine noise, which in Il2 is very audible from another plane, making impossible a sneaky 6 o'clock attack ?

Thank you,
Insuber

Superb update again.

The pictures posted are teasing us, but your statement about the animations is verging on mental torture.

This is going to be spectacular, provided my computer doesn't melt.

Oh,cant wait to give you,my hard earned 40 euros.

Excellent. The flames on the Wellington actually look frightening - especially the last shot with the inside of the fuselage an inferno!

Raises an interesting question about what it will be like from a crewman's perspective inside these bombers...

Intrigued by the comments about crew animation....how about next week for that video update
