56RAF_Roblex Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 (edited) Very excited about the way Co-Op is shaping up and nearly creamed myself when I saw the gorgeous rain on the canopy graphics on the ground but...in my own experiences flying in rain and snow it does not look so good in the air. It still looked OK during take-off because at low speed it does form rivulets but once you get up to speed the rain tends to come at you like the Millenium Falcon entering hyperspace, kind of coming from a central point, and then smears quite evenly over the screen instead of forming rivulets. Yes my experience is in light aircraft & gliders, not jets, and I was not doing 400km/h but I would think rivulets less likely at higher speeds. Sorry. don't want to be negative, just giving feedback. Maybe the WW2 style screens were different (though my glider canopy was a similar shape) Absolutely *love* the effect on the ground though Edited October 20, 2017 by 56RAF_Roblex 3
sport02 Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 (edited) good surprise again , full of promice . perhaps also for dommage engine for exemple in futur . very good look for the P39 Edited October 20, 2017 by sport02
A-E-Hartmann Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Every DD you guys post makes me more giddy for the next beta test. Yes me too. 1
SCG_Space_Ghost Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 -snip- What Han mentioned in the DD for COOP is both our basic functionality (very similar to ROF) which is coming for Kuban and a future feature we plan for next year that has a more Hyperlobby like interface which I am trying to get done for you guys. Jason Sweet! I figured this was the case but sometimes things get lost in translation.
Bando Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Well, Jason, you and the dev team should be proud. It's awesome what has been shown and delivered so far and the future looks bright. Well done!!
Uufflakke Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 The sun did not shine It was too wet to play So we sat in a Lagg On that cold cold wet day. The rain it came down It just would not stop So I gunned the throttle And that LaGG it took off. A plane with a door Makes you feel a gentleman once more Rain drops on the Airacobra Will there be included an umbrella? 1
Jupp Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 777 Studios, You have truly delivered a superior product at this point, and it just keeps getting better, and better... This news is so good, I've just bought the Ju-52, Yak1b, and both scripted Campaigns... sans promo codes... Take yourselves out to lunch, you've earned it. Thanks for so many features, corrections, and improvements! We'll see you up there, "Jupp" ~S~
JG5_Schuck Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 For those already complaining this is preliminary work. It will be an optional effect. If you don't like it turn it off. For everybody else who like it, thanks. The rain looks truly awesome, but can you make it a server side option, as someone who doesn't enable it will have a massive advantage in spotting, thanks..... What next i wonder......exhaust smoke? Yak 7b, G6, P-39, A20......... it just keeps getting better! Keep up the good work.
Jabo_68* Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Why, Han, with all these surprises you are spoiling us!

216th_Jordan Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 It would probably be the best thing to have the server side option to require this. If this is a major graphic effect that requires a restart of the game you could be prompted on selecting a server if you want to restart the game with said feature enabled. If a server does not force this option than everybody is free to choose. For me this would also apply to technochat.
Gambit21 Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Good stuff as always - can't wait to throw more $$$ at you. The dedication and long hours are much appreciated.
SCG_Space_Ghost Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Why, Han, with all these surprises you are spoiling us! No kidding! What the hell is wrong with you guys? Such teases!
TP_Jacko Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Rain. Mmmmmmmm reminds me of my very first flight in the original IL2. Sat on a grass strip in the rain. Hit the throttle and crashed before the wheels left the ground due to engine torque. BUT COOP MODE sounds the business. I would say its been 5 years since I flew a mission that style in Il2 1946. I hope there is some help on scripting.
Guest deleted@50488 Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 As usual Great News! The rain effects look simply great - I smiled when I thought about how poorly the brother civil sim developers strive to achieve that effect... IL-2 Battle of ... RULEZ!
SC_Manu653 Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 I was totaly dazed to see the rain on the canopy !!! It's looks pretty realistic, I was thinking of this poor pilot if he open his canopy and the rain will fall on him and he will be miserable like us in infantry !!! 1
keeno Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Fantastic update! I've never been a big fan of the P39 but having seem the latest photos I actually think I'm in love! The rain looks truly amazing, I sometimes jump into a flight for fun without combat just fly around and practice take-off, cross country and landing, it'll be ace fun for that too! MP is something I just can't really get into however the new coop sounds like it could be my cup of tea! Magic and thanks.
Mac_Messer Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Nice. So the same fluid mechanics with gasoline/oil? 1
MacLeod Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Amazing stuff! Cant wait to fly on heavy rain!!
Habu Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 About the coop mod and that information : Aircraft not claimed by human players will be controlled by AI, so the mission will proceed as it was designed even if the server isn't full I hope that we can have the choice to turn on or off that option. That feature is cool, but sometimes, we'll need to turn it off.
Torso Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 (edited) Wow Jason and team, just wow. Amazing progress. This is a HUGE boost to env immersion. You guys just keep pushing the limits and redefining them. I really appreciate you sharing this WIP with us. Edited per suggestion..lol. I was a fat post alright. Good luck to you and the team as you continue breakin new ground and makin magic happen. Can't wait for it all, but I will. Edited October 20, 2017 by Torso
Trooper117 Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 I can remember playing FSW a few days ago, aircraft on the runway, watching the rain bucket down and running off the canopy, thinking... ''if only BoS could have something like this''... and blow me down, you have only gone and done it! 1
Jason_Williams Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Guys, We know what rain looks like. We all drive cars and at least one of us can fly an actual propeller driven plane. Vids aren't necessary in this thread really. Just let us do our thing. Jason 22
Drum_Tastic Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Hi Jason, I think people are just enthusiastic aren't they? Guys, We know what rain looks like.

SOLIDKREATE Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 I feel so proud to have been here supporting this SIM since day one of the pre-order announcement 5+ years ago. I am also very proud of the fact that a tiny piece of me (That's what she said) exists in the SIM now, or will soon. Well, maybe not tiny, many hours of research and development and coordination went into what I did. I am taking donations for a new flight stick btw guys =o) - J/K
Stlg13/Sgt_Schultz Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 (edited) Rain on the canopy So glad this is finally being implemented. Immersion factor through the roof, and should make spotting interesting. Thanks Devs!. Nice. So the same fluid mechanics with gasoline/oil? That would be pretty damn epic.

schurem Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 (edited) Guys, We know what rain looks like. haha you are one [edited] jason O7 I salute you for it.

BMA_FlyingShark Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Again, impressive. Thank you for your hard work guys.

Danziger Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 You can see very far into the distance on those P39 pictures. To be honest the P39 was always kind of meh for me. Seeing it flying in Kuban is getting me pretty excited for it. The rain is already amazing for a WIP and looks like it is going to be the best executed ever in a flight sim. Also you have to remember a lot of people just read a line here or there and then jump right in to ask questions or make complaints and suggestions that are answered already by reading the entire DD.
C6_lefuneste Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 (edited) At least a real coop multiplayer mode. Wonderfull. Maybe my suggestion 2 years ago has helped ? https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/767-thread-gather-your-suggestions/page-11?do=findComment&comment=281687 Edited October 20, 2017 by lefuneste
71st_AH_Hooves Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 OMG those rain streaks!!! PLEASE do oil the EXACT same way!!!!!
Finkeren Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 I feel that not enough attention is directed towards the P-39 in this thread, it really does look excellent - very good skinning job. Especially the chipping of the paint looks a lot more natural and toned down, than the usual, IMHO often exaggerated, weathering of the paint seen on other models in the sim.
kestrel79 Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Coop, P-39, A-20, awesome graphics that keep getting better and better what's not to love. Thank you! Looking forward to reliving the Hyperlobby days.
216th_Jordan Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Excitement killer. I'll just sit on my hands from now on. Jasons voice is really nice, it really just comes over differently when written I guess..

Especially the chipping of the paint looks a lot more natural and toned down, than the usual, IMHO often exaggerated, weathering of the paint seen on other models in the sim. Yes indeed it seems to me more natural too. I think when there will be the 4K version, the rendering of the P-39 will be superb.
