3. Replay camera idea: follow a shell/bullet (maybe the first one fired from any burst), both from first person and from third person. Could be fun to see in slow motion how good someone's gunnery is.

4. In replays, crew position: I know the replays can save the real head view angle of the person like in IL-2. But can we override and look around?

5. Is turbulence and G-force impact on view (shake etc) included in replays?

6. Do damaged parts that fall off from the airframe have physics? Can they collide with the own airframe or another, causing damage? For example if an engine came loose from the Bf 110, could it strike its own twin stabilizer tail or another airplane? Panels striking someone elses canopy is another example.

1) I hope..
2) I hope..
3) Well you're right. You can do it in Il-2 for the slow motion, but it's hard to do for a good movie, as it was hard to realise a good movie in Il-2.
...
6) It's the case in Il-2 Well it's a bit simple but for the time, it was simply great. I remind to have been damaged after have went about 1000 feet under a dogfight piece. And it often happens when you're just 100 or 200 feet under an ennemy you just made explosing.

Hey man, could you keep in mind that everyone can't take the time to read the whole topic ? Maybe this person is very busy. Anyway, could you give the answer or say nothing ?

Keep fair attitude all

Question about the 109e3 canopy, i've always thought that most Emils had the 'square' canopy by the time of BoB...or was that just the E4 and E7? does anyone have any figures about this or how many E3s were retro fitted?

The Bf109 just does not look right to me with that canopy and as the Bristol Beaufighter is included as an A.I plane which didn't see service until December 1940, Oleg must be covering the time period up to then, I think most 109s had the square canopy by then...prehaps the E4 and E7 will be downloadable content after the game is released...what does Rise Of Flight charge $ per new aeroplane?


Oleg, a Christmas general update on how the game is shaping up would be nice !!

How many of us will still be checking the forums on Xmas day to see if Oleg has posted?!

All the very best to you all,

Simon

There's the very 109 E-3 in the screenshots. I wish they would display it like that. This 109 was shot down during the Battle Of Britain as you can see the canopy is correct.

I doubt that the canopy of the Duxford's Emil does anything has in common with the original canopy any more. It looks like a replica, not made very well. Last april I went to Duxford and took a closer view to it.

both kind of canopies were in use during BoB - with and without head armour.

keep in mind that the only difference between E-1, E-3 and E-4 were thier wingarmament.
MG17, MG-FF, MG-FF/M

so, an originaly build E-3 , rearmed with MG-FF/M became an E-4!

i realy hope MAddox will include E-1 and E-4 , the most used variants during BoB.

Very nice screens, its coming along nicely.

Just a quick question; I know you guys like to introduce adds ons and updates with new aircraft after release so whats the likelyhood of playable Gloster Meteor at some point in BoB?

I belive you mean Gloster Gladiator, cause the Meteor is the 1945 jet.
