Developer Diary, Part 177 - Discussion

I'm not sure.

 

Searches through other forums seem to indicate that the size of the blast tube may not have changed, nor the spinner hole. I haven't seen any solid evidence other than comments though.

I’m pretty sure I’ve read in several of my books on the 109, that it is impossible to determine from external photos, whether of not a given 109 had the MK 108.

Ha!... I bet a few Lufftie lovers are getting a little wet around the nether regions after this update!

Love me some Tim and Eric!

 

In moderation. On the other hand, there is no such thing as too much Steve Brule.

": the atmospheric haze has been tuned for it and skydome has been completely reworked for daytime and dusk light conditions. At the moment, we're working on winter landscape and skydome graphics, as well on cumulus clouds."
 

 

 This is really good news. :salute:

Every week a steep closer to the finished game, each week wonders to discover, each week I am annoyed by the efforts I must deploy to find new ways to thanks the development team for their efforts and I should write successful efforts, new planes, new effects, new steps nearer to a real simulation, thank you all because it is difficult to find more super relatives to qualifies this wonderful work. Continue to fidelities the old and new player of this fabulous game.  :salute:

Cumulus clouds ?

 

You guys are awesome !

I think that we have basic cumulus now but towering cumulus, cumulus congestus - just grow up cumulus are missing now. More height and volume from which can rain.

Incredible. Now playing the waiting game.....

 

Ok, the waiting game sucks. Bring on Hungry Hungry Hippos!

Posted

My money is on a mid-January launch. They'll finish up most of the game by new year's and then prepare the launch for the second or third week of January while also fixing all last minute bugs.

 

I'd gladly be wrong if it actually comes out in December.

A tantalizing update; "amazed" seems to be a weekly emotion here and still it continues. :-)

 

GL for the pre-release run; entering the final stretch, wow this baby's come a long way this year.

Great news! Can't wait knowing about those 2018 plans you teased...  :cool:

Posted

With the skydome rework have you by chance adjusted the Sun for VR users?  Right now it's terrifying.

 

It SHOULD be twrrifying ... it's the SUN!

It looks as good as it can in VR to me and should be MORE terrifying (brighter) but then I'm used to an HDR TV and the low level real thing in Cambridgeshire UK.

Lol yeah and those dang AI enemy fighters seem to know how to use it too.

I want, I want, I want, I want, pleeeaaassseee!

 

I can't wait to make Gerhard Barkhorn's skin for you all. That A-20 is looking so good. I can't wait to fly her. I mean I like the P-39 but it's wings are too small and stalls easily. Big nose cannon though!

I have to say, I'm in danger of becoming a "fan" of the Devs. [shudder!]

 

A request: can we have a "behind the scenes" DD? I'd like to see the pale (due to lack of sun) beardy (due to being nerds), bleary-eyed (due to working 20 hrs a day) faces of the geniuses on the team? Also, a photo or two, please, of "777/1C Towers" in Moscow, so I'll know where to go when I make my pilgrimage!

Plans for the new year are being finalized and confirmed, but we'll maintain the suspense a bit more, all we can say now is that they'll definitely amaze you.

 

This is damn exciting stuff!

Thanks for the update! The G-6 is looking great and I'm pretty excited to experience the new landscape system. Also... new clouds! I'd love it if we saw some more summery billowing cumulus clouds and the like.

I agree Jade. I think we'll be more or less content complete by December but I'm guessing it'll be officially released in the new year. And of course they make it sound like they have a ton of plans going forward and we know that they will iteratively add things as time/scheduling/plans permit.

The G6 looks gorgeous..great job !!

Txs for your efforts

Posted

Can't wait to fly the A-20B! I hope I can reload my rear guns.

Still unsure on the max bomb load though... I hope it's 2000kg as stated previously :P

Posted

Lovely shots and amazing detail on the A-20.

Are the images of the G6 slightly stretched?  The spinner "felt" slightly longer than I expected and I wondered if it was just a perspective thing.

The way things are at the moment, perhaps an improved AI would give the greatest marginal benefit to the sim now. Really hoping for that.

Suspense and surprises  :) 

Thank you for the communication, the models look truly beautiful, and everything else you all are doing of course.

The in-game external camera can stretch the image depending on where you put it, so probably just that.

 

It becomes even more obvious if you have an ultrawide monitor. I guess it's related to the FOV.

Nice update. So much good work being done by these amazingly talented devs. I purchased the p40 and 190 today in support of the team and the great work they do. Thank you!!

So... will you announce the plan of the Pacific thertre? hahahaha

I just wanted to ask if its possible to tell if its the mk108 hole.

 

MG151/20 and MK108 had same size of hole in the spinner.

Posted (edited)

@150GCT_Veltro,

There are spelling errors in the illustration: it is Altostratus and Cirrocumulus.

 

Sorry for nitpicking. :P

The interior detailing of the A-20 is really a pleasure to behold, awesome job the 3D guys have done there. :salute:

 

 

It is only detailing like that which shows just how complicated a aircraft is, something not really apparent from a external viewpoint. ;)

 

 

Looking forward to the release, the wait is driving me mad.

 

 

Wishing you all the very best, Pete. :biggrin:

Really liked the pictures about the A 20, man I feel like a kid on Christmas eve.

Why is he not working?!!  Pay someone a pittance to put a cigarette in their mouths every 30 minutes and put a cup of coffee with a very long straw on every desk every 15 minutes.
