Looking great! Very hi res images in 2560 x 1600. Must be quite a beast of a machine to play at that resolution.

Is that a golf course in the second picture at the bottom?

lol @ Dano - beat me to it

Storm of War the final tee!

Great screens thanks!
I already made my Santa Claus whish list!

BTW can we see your new office building??

[kendo65]

ok - I'll ask...

Oleg, will we have animated golfers teeing off, and will it be possible to get hit by golfballs if you do a low pass over the course?

Great work.

Thanks.

nice spot to crash land - just try to avoid the bunker on the 14th...
I'll keep a 9-iron in my Spit just in case....

This weeks' theme - golfing jokes.....

Oleg: When we'll encounter enemy planes, will friendly AI tells us at 1st ''enemy plane''(not knowing what type it is) and only identifying them only when they'll get closer?

And nice work btw

Finally! Golf made interesting:

"Bill Page is preparing to tee off on this difficult par 4 hole, but wait! A Messerschmidt is coming down the fairway on a strafing run!!"

@BadAim

Yes, only difference is the eagles are aiming at you - not the other way round!

Will we be able to choose between DX9, DX10 and DX11 in game?

I wonder is difference in performance between them big? I mean in frames per second and similar? Like 100 frames with DX9 and 10 with DX11.

I think the game define what is better and run under proper DX

Oleg,

another question you probably can't answer....

in DX11 mode do you use "instancing" to offload scenery processing or provide even more dense scenery at no extra cost? Perhaps even for multiple versions of same aircraft?
