Oleg...i was looking through a old video of a early build of SOW(IL2 engine?)..and took a few screens, i know the new SOW will be much more detailed in res and textures, but when i was asking before about colours of fields of england these shots are to me very very good and look like very much like England that i know, showing the green and hedgrows, again, im just talking about colours.

Yes it was using a bit modified Il-2 engine but with new 3D models.
Don't worry. will looks close to this and lighting will be way better.
And these textures above was my photos of some part when I was flying over England (but with not enough for use directly resolution and amount of them).

Oleg,
If you want a very good source for various airplanes have a look at http://www.hph.cz/index.php?option=c...id=102&lang=cs
The owner of this company has quality written all over him and is known to not do things that are not authentic.
I've visited their factory lately and was very impressed with how they do things.
Maybe you want to contact them.

Niels

However it was great, a very good tiles for England.

I totally believe in your capabilities so i don't have many worries about SoW features, but i'm worried a lot about landscape (textures).
I still don't have understood if France landscape will be different from England. I think that for the Battle of Britain immersion, would be great if we could see the landscape transition from England to France and viceversa, crossing the Channel.

You say SoW landscape will be better than the pics posted above. Ok, but what we have seen untill now is not in this direction, not for me at least. The first SoW ( above), alpha or prealpha, was really amazing.

Cockpits are a work of art!

i know that a developpement is a concession between rentability and fun feature,
and i'm not a real pilot, and turn on the radio before taking off is not interesting for me, i just don't want to see a BoP/WoP 2 with no taking off, no landing, the fast-paced game terrify me...
(i bought IL2-46 and WoP, and WoP takes the dust,) so ok WoP be sold in millions copies but i dont thing a WoP 2 and WoP 3 reach the same sold, sure -1 for me

so it's that why I say i'm trust in you, we can already see that SOW is not BoP 2
