"So there I was, going flat out in the old Hurri, diving down on a brace of Heinkels, when one of the rotten Gerry gunners put a hole in my ruddy fuel tank. Most disappointing. I gave him a squirt with the 303s as I went past, but I think I just knocked a bit of paint off. Anyway, the old girl was making unpleasant noises, and it started to get a bit warm, what with the flames licking around the rudder pedals, so I decided it was time to make a swift exit. Next think I knew, I was hanging from the brolly, watching the Hurri go down. She landed in some poor farmer's field, and left a bit of a hole. I came down with a bump, but got away with nothing but a bruised rear. Some local turned up on a horse and cart, and gave me a lift back to base. Anyway, enough of my troubles, who's round is it?"

That made me laugh.

Nice job with the hat Afdn.

I know nothing about what it takes to engineer a game like BoB, but I've just watched the clip of the pilot exiting a Spitfire, and the thing that impresses me most is the movement of the pilot's shadow.
You can even see it on the seat back and parachute pack as he's getting up and out, then the large shadow on the wing / fuselage is simply perfect.
I kept pausing it in slo-mo over and over.
Just awesome realism.

Thank you again for showing us another update.
This feels just like the good ol' days.

Hi Oleg

Hopefully this will help - shows a lot of Thames bridges, including Tower bridge.

Colour of Tower bridge is not great (from around 3:00 onwards) and from what I saw - no close ups.

But, should help with the general "look" of London and Thames barges, riverside, etc.

I thought Tower bridge was a dark green where painted during the war?

Cheers

Hi Oleg, thank you very much. But i am getting much more worry about having a good pc for SoW:BoB. Seems that ww3 will start in my home after this simulation release. Many of wife hates you i think.

What, no movie?

It´s amazing to see pilot models so good that a modern First Person Shooter could use them easily and those models are for a combat flight sim!
Oleg probably have something new use in his head for this models.
Something NEW is probably coming in this genre guys maybe not just better graphics or AI, but a new ,more deeper way to interact with game?
The wait is becoming harder...
