Knights of the Sky. Who's game?

[Beebop-RIP]

I'm beginning to see why they scrapped the IL2 engine.

Pretty

[BadAim]

Very, very sexy. Does the artwork remind anyone else of Half Life?

Could do, hard to remember!

I see they subscribe to the flat earth theory though

Seen the new promo movie?? Slow download but well worth it.

When you work the action on the machine guns, watch the next round on the belt move into the breech. Brilliant!! And look at the shadows from the clouds on the ground. This is going to be sooooooo good.

No shit on the Download,

43 KB is SLOW !!!

[BadAim]

Holy crap, is this gonna be fun!!!!!

[Tonar]

Thats one nice looking sim, I like the pistol in the Cockpit so you can blow your brains out when you catch on fire.

I hope the 6DOF doesn't make it to hard to site down your guns. I'm just learning how to sit still in IL2.

News Item from NaturalPoint:

WWI: Knights of the Sky is the working title for this exciting debut from the Gennadich Team. With full 6DOF TrackIR support, and incredibly detailed aircraft, excellent graphics and damage models, and a classic story about the time when combat aviation was born – this is a title to watch closely.

The game will contain both single and multiplayer (LAN/Internet) modes as well as historically realistic campaigns for both sides and user-friendly training missions. The project is currently scheduled to be released by Fall 2007 (Russian publisher is 1C), with debuts in other territories around the world as more publishers are secured.

Check out Promo Movie 8 now at the link in Dubbo's last post.

Shows the dynamic atmospheric effects.

[BadAim]

I need do clear my calendar for 2008.

[Beebop-RIP]

Do these guys know how to promote their product or what?

Promo 8 was totally awesome!

(you know, it's hard enough for me to shoot down anything in IL2.

[Dubbo]

Wow. The Sights. The Sounds.

Roll on Autumn.......that's if you can believe 'em.

I uploaded both videos to our server here:

So should download a little quicker.

You rock Rog.

A few new terrain and object screenies. (Nice river).

I was wondering though if the Castor oil output of some of these rotary engined jobs will be modelled. That way you'd have to assign a key to wipe your goggles down periodically ('W' I guess) and as your pilot becomes less steady as nausea builds you'd need a vomit key ('V') But using 'V' too much will cause your pilot to become weak. Or does ingestion of Castor oil cause the trots? Then we'd have to have an 'S' key assigned.............

Pretty sweet,

I do like the definition of the river banks.

[Cold_Gambler]

I am SO looking forward to this.

Haven't flown WW1 crates since Red Baron 2 (never had RB3D)... ah, the endless hours spent patrolling the Western Front

We got maps:

[Klinger]

Man thats straight out of the opening credits of Dad's Army.

Take it away Bud Flannigan.

[Dubbo]

Dad's Army. There's a blast from the past. Nice maps.

[Dubbo]

Fortifications.

[Dubbo]

Geezum! Look at the lighting and detail on these. I really like the ripples in the canvas on the fuselage and the sheen on the doped wing surfaces
