Default Dummy pilot and damage visual aids diagram not wanted thankyou

Oleg,

With regards to the aircraft damage and cockpit pilot posts above. Please, no damage visual aids and please, please and please again, no dummy pilot in the cockpit!

I would like to see and use the cockpit without a dummy pilot getting in the way. This is a flight sim, not a cartoon game. I can't believe some of the stuff people are asking for. Good luck.

Happy landings,

Talisman

For some reason, all the times I got into a cockpit I could see myself, my legs and my arms and etc. I guess I'm living in a cartoon, then?

Maybe this could be done as in DCS, where this is optional - want pilot? Shift+P and you have a completely moving pilot. Don't want a pilot? Shift+P again, and you don't have a pilot.

It would be nice to see the pilot moving all around, instead of that ghost and empty cockpit. Imagine that cockpit, with those shadows, and with a animated pilot moving the controls around! That would be awesome. As MP said, it adds to immersion.

I am sure it will be toggle-able and with possibility to set a default state (on or off) so people that want to see the cockpit empty can do so... like DCS Black Shark has. Or you just wish to interdict something other people might like?

As for gore effects. Activable from hidden setting like current IL-2 would be good enough. In some places people know that war without blood is just a myth .

More options is always better than less, of course, if is not hindering the development and the release.

What problem do you have with a pilot that you may switch off if you don't like him?
Let those who want to see their legs inside a cockpit do so - the others can always turn it off.

It's not a high priority thing of course, but if there's some time left, I'm convinced, it would add the immersion.

As far as visual aids are concerned, I agree that we don't really need them. Even in Il-2 I always know what's wrong with my aircraft, more or less. When your aircraft is starting to act strangely, a glance out of the canopy normaly suffices to acknowledge the damage that occured...

Well if we could throw switche's I would think differently, such as in blackhawk for example, but we won't have that here. I think it more important to get this game to market ASAP, their not gonna do the pilot no matter how much their asked. Somebody said above about driving a car, I know that I only notice my body parts when I spill a drink

S~! Gentlemen

The Pilot Animations question has been answered many times by Oleg and Luthier.

Please remember that Storm of War series is going to be built with the modding community in MIND. Top quality mods WILL be able to be submitted for inclusion into the game.

There will be PLENTY of opportunity for the modding community to submit things like pilot models/animations ect for inclusion into the main game .... I am SURE someone will come up with a gore mod and just about about every other popular addition as well.

The will be Mod capabable and S.O.W Standard servers. Everyone will (hopefully) be happy.
