JensenPark Posted January 24, 2010 Posted January 24, 2010 holy cow!!!!! no wonder it's taking so freakin' long to finish. Quote
Jediteo Posted January 24, 2010 Posted January 24, 2010 Oh my. Look at the cloud with the light running through at 1.13. Just unbelievably beautiful. Looks like 2010 is going to be a great year for us simmers. Now I just need to organise some charity event to scam my way through to get a new rig. Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted January 24, 2010 2. Administrators Posted January 24, 2010 wow. Just wow. Quote
Kimosabi Posted January 24, 2010 Posted January 24, 2010 Another kick in the nuts for the WoP fanboys. I've heard rumors about a september release. Let's hope they stop pulling pranks on us now.... Quote
Tonar Posted January 24, 2010 Posted January 24, 2010 The shadows across the cockpit are incredible. Quote
1. DDz Quorum Painless Posted January 24, 2010 1. DDz Quorum Posted January 24, 2010 ~S~ Tonar M8, The shadows across the cockpit are incredible. That's what impressed me the most ! WOW ~S~ Painless Quote

Vila Posted January 24, 2010 Posted January 24, 2010 I'm speechless. Does anybody know minimum rig requirements? I still have robber mask somewhere. Maybe it's time to use it. Quote
Bojan Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 Hopefully Tracker IR will allow 3D positioning. Quote
GreyKnight Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 WOW #16! I'm sure it will/should have complete TIR capability built in Bojan. I'm wondering the way your head wallows around a bit when he turns/banks the aircraft is hard-coded in and can't be switched off? Quote

I sure hope it can be switched off GK, I was getting a touch of motion sickness. Quote
Jediteo Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 EXCELLENT! Now all missing is flipping the boche/Jerry the bird just before jumping. Quote
DD_Arthur Posted January 29, 2010 Author Posted January 29, 2010 But, but.....no one in history ever bailed out of a flyin' plane like that! I mean, I don't really mind how it's animated in the sim but imagine; you've just lost a big chunk of wing, you're on fire and Squawk in his 109 is coming in again for the coup de grace. You're really gonna flip the door and do a spot of wing walking??!!!!! Still, great to see more moving pictures of SoW. Quote
JensenPark Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 to be more realistic, the Brit pilots going down like that should be having a brew up and a spot of tea before the wing walking part. Quote
Tonar Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 This is the first fottage of a pilot I have seen come out of SOW Quote
JensenPark Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 to be more realistic, the Brit pilots going down like that should be having a brew up and a spot of tea before the wing walking part. ok, just got home and watched it (can't see it at work) and I have to agree with Arthur. Quote
BadAim Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 Yeah, I'm not sure what you guys are talking about, he pulled himself up and out of a very cramped cockpit with incredible speed and spun around and dove off the wing all within about three seconds. I'm not sure what else could be done. Bailing out of a damaged fighter was a relatively slow and ungraceful undertaking, not to mention a dangerous one, it was many a pilot's last act. The video I saw perfectly mimics nearly every bailout account I've ever read about, I'm not sure what anyone else was watching. Edit: I suppose the point is the very nice and fluid animation, the rest I think is just armchair piloting (including me) Quote
Kimosabi Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 In what manner the pilots bailed out was dependant on the situation and what kind of damage the plane had but this is pretty much how they were taught to bail. Quote
