Thank you so much Pete, great improvements indeed. The textures on the Tobruk map are so realistic now. I'm of those who were happy with the map as it was, but now it is much better.

 

May I ask two questions?

 

1. What is that "wonder woman view" thing?? (I'm sorry if I'm supposed to know, but I really don't know what it is).

 

2. "France speedtree patterns modified". What does this really mean? how can this be noticeable in the game?

[Sokol1]

1- "Wonder Woman View" (Shift + F1) is like in IL-2:46 (and EAW), make your plane became invisible, a "gamey" feature. ?

 

 

2 - Don't know specifically, but France landscape gives the impression of being more colorful, with patches more defined.

[343KKT_Kintaro]

Thank you Sokol1, I think I got that "wonder woman view" thing, it's a bug correction isn't it?

 

I already had made some flights over France after the patch was released, but I didn't notice any novelty...

 

Anyway it's ok, I'm happy with the patch. Now: looking forward to new improvements... and new add-ons...  ?

Not really, just a addition for the new planes introduced by Tobuk, default planes of game already have this thing.

[343KKT_Kintaro]

Thank you for the explanations, Sokol.

 

I think there's a typo on your  text... isn't there? Didn't you mean "Ctrl + F1" for the "wonder woman view" rather than "Shift + F1".

 

Otherwise, I made a few tests with my sim, obviously with "Ctrl + F1" as the assigned combined keys... and it's not working.

 

Is this video an example of the "wonder woman view" feature? (although in external view):

 

 

[9./JG52_J-HAT]

Ctrl+F1, yes.
There is a realism option, cockpit always on (iirc, or something similar) that you need to uncheck for it to work. Your video shows wonder woman view, yes. You can use it like Warthunder too, with a reticule showing where the bullets will hit.

 

Shoft+F1 is lean to gunsight normally.
