Developer Diary, Part 72

Great news!

 

Small but important features added all the time. The details are what's gonna make this sim.

 

Just a week more for the Fw 190, not too bad. She sure does look pretty in flight. Very pleased to see, that she really does fly in the correct nose-down attitude.

@Zak

Will the IL-2 bomb indicator become functional in future, also?

Happy news! Thank you & keep up the good work!

Red hairs are just sooooo special, aren't they?  Unfortunately, I guess Krause just thinks like us... Which brings the query... Are there women around here ?????

GREAT news.  Still no cockpit visuals??? Considering how long they've been working on it the cockpit must be a work of art.

Modeling and texturing takes a long time - that's the only conclusion to be had here.

Tiger - did you grab the mid-week mini-update? That may be it. Or it may well be uploaded but they haven't yet announced it.

Yes now that I think of it, I forgot to grab it as it was late :wacko:

 

Sorry for the false alarm :dash:

Krause is female IIRC and Seren77. There are at least a handful that I'm aware of. Not really sure why gender is important though?

Gender should be irrelevant .We are all V pilots.

Hmmmm, I wasn't aware of it.

Gender is important, for me, from psychosociology standpoint. Why do women feel less attracted by flight simulation as a whole, and combat flight simulation in particular.

Societal expectations more than anything I'd say, but it's not really a topic for this thread. If you'd like to discuss it, it's propably more appropriate to start a thread in the Free Subject Forum.

Of course! There should be more ladies than just Seren77 & me

True!

We can discuss this in another topic. But yeah. I understand your point.

Interesting topic to discuss for sure! I will be glad to express my own point of view.  :)

 

ps: let's keep on this thread topic!

I noticed it has the outer MG-FF removed in the video. Is that going to be an armament option or the default?

Some weeks ago the unlocks of the Fw 190 were posted in the DD. It revealed (to some criticism) that the outer MG FFs will indeed be an unlock and not standard armament.

My first post in here should be a positive one so I will start with. Yay, good work. Looking forward to this and next week now.

nice contrails in high altitude

put max alt in quick mission and you'll see it with F3. so nice.

it will be easier to spot bombers and high 109 preparing a boom zoom 

lagg3 seems to have more realistic roll turn speed or is it because of altitude ??...

 

so nice.

thanks dev !

They are there. They aren't on/off like the old Il-2, the proper conditions must be met.

I think the star of the 190 vid may be the clouds at the end.  Pretty amazing!!!

To get wingtip trails, you need to pull serious G (almost blacking out), and they are fairly subtle - the lighting needs to be right to see them:

High altitude vapour trails seem to kick in at about 4500m.

Very nice.

Damn those high alt contrails look nice. Can't wait to try them out myself, when I get home tomorrow.

I don't think the update is even out yet is it?

 

I wanted to play at this moment when I have posted here  the game. I started the Launcher and what happend no play button but it is Checking for a Update then it said failed to update. Grrr. every time the same with the updates.............

 

Tiger - did you grab the mid-week mini-update? That may be it. Or it may well be uploaded but they haven't yet announced it.

 

Yes, I have all updates installed. How can this happend when no update is released but the game try to download a update and failed to do it. Result cant play and need to reinstall the game if I want to play or not. 

 

Ah, one more thing that has just popped up - a DM improvement. You can now damage the bomb racks, so the bomb would drop. I hope that's a proper explanation :)

 

What happend when I hit the bomb that the plane has inside or outside mounted? Nothing?
