Looks like its black smoke comming from the ground, maby from a bombed target Smile

First time i looked at the shot i just assumed it was very dark clouds, dhu. Googly


Would be cool if a ac flying through smoke effects how it moves just like irl. (proppably wont, but i would be cool)

If ind it sort of odd that this is flight sim and there are more shots of land objects than airplanes. I guess like he says hes a photographer. Oh well, its Olegs world and were just livin in it.

I'm guessing that's the smoke from the He-111 he just shot down Wink. I assume the pilot models will come in later. I wouldn't be surprised if prop wash did effect the smoke, since Oleg did mention prop wash will be modeled.

At the moment, BOP landscape looks far superior. Please god, let me be wrong......(I KNOW I am wrong! I'M WRONG ALL THE TIME. *rocks back and forth in foetal postion lol). Smile

The shots of the sunset through the clouds are very nice.

Nice! Clap, but it still looks like it'll be a loooong time before we can get our hands on a copy.

<WHINE>A movie of this would be most welcomed.</WHINE>

P.S. I wonder if ubi will eventually stomp on discussing SoW:BoB here...

Definitely not...

If the Il2 engine could do what the SOW engine can then what would be the point of a new engine at all?

Compare :-

IL2 finished patched up for 6 years, full graphics :-



SOW beta unfinished :-

If you don't like it, don't buy it.

And that first pic is with mods anyway, so it's not even what we have in the game usually.

So, no diffraction in canted armoured windscreens? Angel

Personally I think it the planes and pits look bitchin'. Apart from saying the shadows look smashing I'll reserve judgement on the rest but add that I am glad that progress is being made and we are being informed.

I must say those bolt heads look well nasty to bang your head on. Why didnt the RAF add some rubber/material cover like the FW190?

Would have saved some nasty head injuries IMHO.

Oh and does anyone know what the other added button on the control yoke is for? Spitfire mk1B ?

Actually, these shots were done on a core2due at 2.6ghz, 2gb ram, and an 8800gts. No word on what detail level these were done at and no word on FPS, but I doubt they would make their screenshots on a machine getting 2fps.

The one question I want to know is what music will there be in the menu?



Airspeed, altitude, or brains; you always need at least two.

Xiolablu, a clarification: The SoW pit is an alpha build, not a beta Wink

Xiolablu3's comparison just shows how far SOW has come, and its only alpha!

Can't wait for more.

ROTFL !

I suppose it will be the French song "J'attendrai":

J'attendrai toujours ton retour....

No Need. They'd have burned to death from the unsealed fuel tank just ahead of the instrument panel long before they bumped their head.
