From Pic one. In text did axis fighter pilots say also 'Tally ho'? I always thought it came from English aristocracy, from fox hunting element? Towns looking great! S |

Oleg - brilliant shots - the sea textures are 100%!!! - I reckon the fire in the first screenshot (the Blenheim?) is fantastic/perfect! And of course, the sun reflecting off perspex etc is awesome! Thanks for the update! |

I believe the German equivalent of "Tally Ho" is "Horrido". This too is an old aristocratic hunting term and was used by Luftwaffe pilots in WWII in a similar fashion to British "Tally Ho". This said, I humbly request that the German speech pack be change to reflect this (if there is time). From the Combatsim forums: posted 12-12-2002 01:28 AM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Horrido is a Latin word meaning frightful or frightening. Perhaps the Luftwaffe meant for it to mean "Fear me!" You know, in a Samuel L. Jackson Pulp Fiction sort of way. Ah, but alas, I really don't know anything . . . found this in (of all places) the EAW newsgroup: quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Horrido is a hunting expresion used in [G]ermany. It is a greeting like "good afternoon or howdy...." and it is also used in letting someone live up (I think you don't say that in [E]nglish).... anyway , like the [E]nglish speaking say: "Hip hip" and the answer is "Hooray". German hunters say "Horrido" and the cro[w]d answers "Yo". -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So, there you go -------------------- Douglas Helmer Forum Administrator publisher@combatsim.com Cheers and thanks for an awesome update, Fafnir_6 Last edited by Fafnir_6; 10-15-2010 at 05:35 PM. |

Took a closer look at this image...
simply incredible! The city looks like a real city, all it needs is some people and cars to make it complete. Their is enough variety in buildings one barely sees the repeated ones. The Bf 110 name tags include unit codes, talk about detail! Rolling hills in distance only make it more like real life. Behind the puffy clouds looks like some cirrus types as well (high alt striped types). The 2 items I do not like (even if other games have it) 1. Red and Blue arrows pointing to units. WW2 pilots had nothing like that, so it simply destroys all that beautiful world. 2. Range number (see the 3.7, 3.35) The high resolution monitors today offers a much better judge of distance. New players may benefit, but for full realism arenas can they be turned off? BTW, Oleg. THANKS! for your weekly posting! |
