=gRiJ=Alado 30 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 What exactly do you expect? Most feautures of the upcoming patch have beem revealed before and showing early BoBP work before Kuban is even done is a bad practise. Honestly, be glad for what we've got. and who are you? I must or should not be glad, that's my problem, also something is appreciated when you give it for free. Link to post Share on other sites

Field-Ops 366 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Thanks for the update Han. Thanks to BlackHellHound1 for all the hours of work, well done! The last skin shown I'm guessing is a naval one, not seen that scheme before. It has my interest. Very different from all the others I have seen for any IL2. Its likely the special skin for pre-ordering BoK. If you remember the BoS pre-order skins they were not historical but very good looking. Link to post Share on other sites

kendo 513 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Another positive surprise. It keeps getting better, which keeps making the waiting even more difficult. Almost like an endurance test now. If it keeps like this for much longer will be reduced to a drooling, dribbling wreck by the time release date comes... Link to post Share on other sites
41Sqn_Riksen 1533 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 will 4K skin affect performance? Yes. Because they are more refined, sharper, and more polished, you should get 3-10 km/h in speed just like in RL. lololololol 3 Link to post Share on other sites

1CGS Jason_Williams 26358 Posted February 16, 2018 1CGS Share Posted February 16, 2018 Everyone, There is lots of 4K content already available in this special part of the forum. https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/forum/107-4k-skins-and-templates/ BHH has worked with the team on one particular plane and I have worked with ICDP on providing 4K templates for many planes. ICDP has also done many skins as have other artists. We have also worked with Panzerbar to make unique skins for airplanes. Eventually, we will leverage all this work into creating a standard in which there will be more official 4K skins. Jason 8 Link to post Share on other sites
WIS-Redcoat 185 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I was about to ask what the difference was between this new BHH work and the previous 4k work done by others. Glad to hear its underway and those other lads' efforts will help speed this process along. Does anyone know if these 4k options be a tickbox in graphics settings or something else?

1CGS Jason_Williams 26358 Posted February 16, 2018 1CGS Share Posted February 16, 2018 Yes we only have default 4K for a couple planes, but you can always choose a custom 4K skin before take-off. Jason Link to post Share on other sites

BlackHellHound1 960 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Thanks, everyone! It was fun to work on this project. I hope you guys have as much fun flying with them as I had making them BlackHellHound1! 12 Link to post Share on other sites
IckyATLAS 668 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Thank you for these gorgeous skins. There are various qualities of 4K skins. To see the difference you have to look from a short distance like with on plane cameras. There you can see differences for example for rivets or metal plate junctions, or plate surface. So it is not enough to have 4K but to use that for the maximum visual effect that this higher resolution can give, and this is a lot of work. Thanks again. Link to post Share on other sites
[APAF]VR_Spartan85 404 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 This is fantastic! Excellent work! Maybe a silly question but do you have to be in ultra preset to enjoy the 4K skins? Link to post Share on other sites
Uufflakke 1429 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Thanks, everyone! It was fun to work on this project. I hope you guys have as much fun flying with them as I had making them BlackHellHound1! Je hebt goed werk geleverd man! Ik zou zenuwpatiënt worden van het maken van alle details zoals de klinknagels en noem maar op. Maar het resultaat mag er zijn. Zonder meer. Petje af. You delivered a good job mate! It would work on my nerves creating all the details like rivets and so on. But the result is there. Without any doubt. Hats off. By the way, besides the focus on details on skins the Kuban environment looks great. Again. The snow covered mountain tops, the trees overgrown hills, the meandering rivers in valleys ánd the new horizon. Link to post Share on other sites
