shouldn't say it... but anyway all will understand it when will begin the research of features in nearest future....

On one of exhibitions in the past, when Il-2 was shown one of the first times one guy was all the time crashing in the forest... I was asking why he is doing it... the answer was simple: would like to understand the technology (he was developer of other flight sim).

[Avala]

So, we will do a lot of crashing on the forest then

It looks like you and the team yourselves are not yet fully aware what your engine can do. Which is very good thing and promises very good simulation IMO.

Great update!

Thanks Oleg! These screen shots are excellent.. !!!!!!!!

One question Oleg,
you said that the quality of graphics of BoB will be like cinematik. So it will be possible for moviemakers to make dokumentations for example Battle of Britain?

[chiefrr73]

I mean like dokumentation on History Channel?

[Sutts]

I'd like to see SoW used to reproduce historic battles for TV and I hope Oleg would get some decent royalties from that. I know the history channel has already done something on dogfights but the simulation was very poor compared to what Sow has to offer.

Dogfights does not use simulated cuts....just animated scene there is little concern for realistic flight modelling. They're more concerned with illustrating what happened in a given situation.

I have a question, would the pilot turn his head as we do using TrackIR. Would it be implemented in the future if not already?

Thanks.

Thks for the update , i only have one question, can we see if the pilot is hurt ex: blood or somethink like that ?

did know that sow is train sim lol, look really great
