kingstreet73 Posted April 6, 2021 Posted April 6, 2021 (edited) Hi Jason, Happy Birthday!! I have a question: Do you think DX12 will be advantageous to the sim in its current state or is it not worth the hassle of moving on from DX11? Also to answer your question: - What was my very first taste of virtual air combat in a video game? Name the title and system.F-15E Strike Fighter on an IBM PC. Edited April 6, 2021 by kingstreet73

Ju88A-17, would fit BoN perfectly! It shouldn't be much work for your team since it is modified version of already ingame ju88A-4. You said some cool collector planes could fill Normandy......B-25 and Ju88a17 TaaaDaaaaa ? Happy birthday Jason!? Edited April 6, 2021 by =VARP=Ribbon
zippyPerrserker Posted April 6, 2021 Posted April 6, 2021 (edited) Happy Birthday! Thanks for taking the time to do this! Question: Any chance of time acceleration becoming a little more, well, accelerated? Or, dare I say it (dare, dare!) a blast from the past good ol' "skip to the next waypoint" feature being implemented? edit: just realized one too many questions, so let's go with the first one - anything that can be done to help current time acceleration? Edited April 6, 2021 by zippyspeck01 one too many questions!

Jason My final answer is Afterburner. *This is correct. I loved the arcade cockpit of Afterburner in the late 80s and early 90s. So much fun.
kendo Posted April 6, 2021 Posted April 6, 2021 Happy Birthday Jason! Thanks for the Q + A. Finally have made the jump to Tank Crew.
I.JG3_CDRSEABEE Posted April 6, 2021 Posted April 6, 2021 Happy birthday Jason. Maybe I'm to late but can you give us an update on infantry? Good luck at the tables! Hope you win 2 million $$$$s
Jade_Monkey Posted April 6, 2021 Posted April 6, 2021 Ver happy to hear fuel mgmt/ droptanks mentioned more than once. I've been looking forward to it for a long time since it was mentioned by the devs. It will be fundamental for the Normandy map and i just like the small complexity added.
oc2209 Posted April 6, 2021 Posted April 6, 2021 Felicitations on the anniversary of the successful conclusion of your gestation! Yeah, I can't just say 'happy birthday' normally. I don't have any questions. That's my birthday gift to you. I hope you have better luck at the casino than I had in my one gambling excursion. I had beginner's luck for all of about ten minutes, then nosedived from there.

BlackHellHound1 Posted April 6, 2021 Posted April 6, 2021 Happy Birthday Jason! Enjoy your time in the casino. My question of the day: Do you intend to rework the "artificial lighting" effects ingame to match with the new improved visuals. By "artificial lighting" I refer to the Navigation lights, tracers, etc. which can be visible at times when they really shouldn't. BlackHellHound1 2

jokerBR Posted April 7, 2021 Posted April 7, 2021 (edited) Salute Jason, Happy Birthday! I began my "career" with a simple TK-85 program which have a black screen with some numbers on lowest row, and just two lines in the distance representing a runway and sometimes a mountain. 1980's. Few years later, on PC, it was a file called jet.exe (DOS), with planes made with simple outlines, no filling. Mind you it was a glamorous PC-XT 4.88 Mhz. After this, all the way up until today, passing thru almost anything flying sim related. Edited April 7, 2021 by jokerBR
hetstaine Posted April 7, 2021 Posted April 7, 2021 (edited) Getting old mate ..and nearly in your prime! As for this question, I'm going to go with the classic Afterburner .. - What was my favorite air combat arcade game in an actual coin-op arcade? Name the title. I'm going to go with the classic Afterburner. For those times when you had money to burn and wanted to be Maverick, great game at the time it was too. Just read through the thread and see this has already been thrown out there and is in limbo from the original guy, still, great game ? Edited April 7, 2021 by hetstaine

[CPT]milopugdog Posted April 7, 2021 Posted April 7, 2021 Happy birthday Jason! If you're still answering questions, is there any possibility that the Stalingrad city will see any love? Compared with the newer building tech, it looks a little sad. 1

I myself don't need it, but we still have a few members of our squad that do not own BoBp. I could then send you a forum nick of one of those that fly regularly if that's fine with you.
