keeno Posted November 17, 2019 Posted November 17, 2019 Holy shit............ I thought that was a real photograph!!! That is absolutely outstanding!!!!!! Oh my god! 1
timothy55 Posted November 17, 2019 Posted November 17, 2019 Iam certainly impressed by that picture , the weather feature looks so far like other objects in the upcoming TF 5.0 in that its going to be worth the wait. 1
Missionbug Posted November 17, 2019 Posted November 17, 2019 That does look impressive, I am bound to get lost flying in that though. Wishing you all the very best, Pete. 1
InProgress Posted November 17, 2019 Posted November 17, 2019 (edited) Looks great now i want to see how nights is going to look like, especially in africa. Should be tons of stars and maybe even planets visible, unlike our sky in europe today Really hope for that and maybe some rain and snow too heh Edited November 17, 2019 by InProgress 2
Picchio Posted November 17, 2019 Posted November 17, 2019 (edited) Impressive! Are those volumetric clouds or is it just a texture map? Edited November 17, 2019 by Picchio
InProgress Posted November 17, 2019 Posted November 17, 2019 (edited) A bit of offtopic but now since new steam update, every game has their background. I think it can be set up by devs and if not it's just some generic screenshot and meh title, would be cool if you would update that You can also put a custom one but having good official one would just look good.

A lot of tweaking to be done still but you should be able to have different layers, proper overcast, fly inside and around etc etc 1 1 2

Indigene Posted November 17, 2019 Posted November 17, 2019 An excellent addition to Blitz! Love the clouds! ?
danielprates Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 The clouds look amazing! @InProgress is right, the night sky deserves some love too. It looks quite different in different latitudes, comparing to the sims we are all used to.

Wasn't it supposed to be a free update for channel map between 5.0 and 6.0? At least that's what buzzsaw was saying if I remember correctly.

At least that's what buzzsaw was saying if I remember correctly. No, we have never promised any free FW-190 update. For one, the FW-190A when it appears will include four models... A-1/A-2/A-3/A-4. However, if we do move on to do a TF 6.0 module, we expect to finish it much faster than TF 5.0. TF 5.0 is incorporating many new systems with a lot of new code... for example, the Map Tool had to be created from nothing, there was no tool from 1C and the original map was so bugged it could not be used as a template. The tool alone took 2 years to write the code for... the map then took another year. We expect to be finished the next map in less than a year if the CoD engine gets the go ahead for another module. 1 3
Team Fusion ATAG_Pattle Posted November 19, 2019 Author Team Fusion Posted November 19, 2019 Currently working on a short video coinciding with our latest update showing weather/cloud development for the upcoming TFS 5.0. Noting many comments saying how real the screenshot looked, I have tried to emulate the appearance of a photo from the time period. One that you would see in a news clipping or book. Unable to choose between these three, so sharing them all. High Res versions: https://ibb.co/album/hBQzwF Cheers, Pattle 3 2
Mysticpuma Posted November 25, 2019 Posted November 25, 2019 The weather effects in this clip are what I one day hope to see in Clod. Heavy rain, windscreen covered, take-off, break through the overcast into sunlight. A real feeling of combat high and low. Imagine bombers sneaking in below the clouds while fighters patrol above.... Crossing my fingers for CloD 1

Heavy rain, windscreen covered, take-off, break through the overcast into sunlight. A real feeling of combat high and low. Imagine bombers sneaking in below the clouds while fighters patrol above.... Crossing my fingers for CloD We hope to provide full overcast conditions. We will be posting additional updates in the near future. We will not be including rain or snow for TF 5.0 release, although we may patch the game later. The fact is pilots in WWII normally did not fly in rain or snow conditions or conditions which had a cloud ceiling of lower than 1000 ft. Although WWII pilots did fly in more challenging situations than allowed in VFR rules currently, there were minimum standards. Weather changed very quickly and a pilot who took the risk of taking off with a 1000 ft cloud ceiling, could return in an hour with the clouds at 100 ft. The potential for catastrophic losses of planes and pilots was too much of a risk in marginal conditions and missions were usually scrubbed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_meteorological_conditions
