Nice shots

was PO a squadron code for the Hurri-bus? Also, how will the markings be done? Does the game handle the various sizes of roundels in place in 1940, the various underwing schemes, etc etc ?

Nice to see that sfx aren't being shown although it'd be great to see the development of it.

Will clouds be edited to have flat bottoms?

A/C models look awesome.

Aircraft models look good, terrain still looks like a cartoon well to me it does, but I do appreciate this is still early in development.

A great question though from Bobb4 i am also hoping that the AI control surfaces will move.

46 Squadron, out of Stapleford Tawney in Essex.

They also saw action in Norway.

Updates may be restricted but it's not as if we're missing out. I'd rather not see details which the crew absolutely hate and are crap than see them myself. When things are close to how they'll look, then we should be shown them with the added incentive that they can be tweaked until release.
put it this way; would you rather be shown a fugly woman or wait a month and be shown a beautiful one?

Thanks Luthier. Btw, i agree with Hecke.

They seem to have no depth from sight of the sky.


Rest is nice.

PFF, what do you expect, they have to make concessions.
It still has to run on our PC's.

Thanks for the understanding

Pff, hopefully i'm gonna love at you when Luthier tells us that they hate it more than we do. You are just a damn FANBOY.
But I can tell you, you won't have any advantage sucking up Oleg and his team.

For Oleg critique is more helpful than your "Perfect", "Stunning", "Awesome", etc: He can read it and gain inspiration and see what the potential customers expect.

It's our money that he wants and if you don't have any prospects... well, than be quiet because you're not any help at all.



P.S It's just small critique, not an insult to MG!

[Novotny]

These posts are NOT for critique. Do you really think Oleg posts updates because he's dying to know what a bunch of 14 year olds think?

[QUOTE=dflion;172629]Thanks luthier for update

Just a couple of things 'bugging me'

1. The Hurricane propeller shape is not right (I will follow-up asaspo with a couple of photo scans) from the book 'My Part of the Sky' by Roland Beamont.

This has been covered before. There were a number of different spinner profiles used and this is a good representation of one of them. I think I remember someone saying that some Hurris were fitted with constant speed spitfire units which were slightly oversize and required an oil collection ring to be fitted behind the spinner to prevent escaped oil from getting on the screen. I think this might be one of those.
