My dear friends,

The time of our exile from "new stuff" produced by the undisputed Master of Combat Flight Simulations is approaching!!!!   The only human on the entire planet capable of producing a product that we can all enjoy has spoken:

spitfire.avi (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQbCIT-aMnY#normal)

LOOK AT THE PHYSICS!!!!!!!  Virtual air panzies around the world are already whining "It's too much..."  That video was released a couple of days ago, within 24 hours immediately followed by:

Storm of War : Battle of Britain (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPEbzwWk90I#normal)

Enjoy, if you have not already.....

There is a Santa Claus after all.....

I find myself hoping the pilot bail-out has multiple dimensions.  Imagine if that were the only sequency and the pilot bailed out while inverted :)

So if you bail out at just above stall speed - maybe what you get is what we've been presented in this video.

But what if you bail out at 400 Kmh?

Can you hit your head on the rudder and have your brains splat out over the tail?   If you do bail out at high speed in front of an enemy fighter - what happens if you go through his prop?

Or what does the animation look like when your chute doesn't open because you pissed of the riggers?

Idle thoughts.... I've many

That is great the pilot exiting the pit.. About the cockpit it's what i'm talking about about everything i was saying not for hours or days but about years.. many will not be happy about this mor realistic views and feeling .. heheh now they will have to deal with it.. and it's good..

The pilot is pretty relax for bailing out inflight and fast... isn't it ?  ;)

He suffers from being "British" :)

You know, too stiff....  That's why God invented French and Italians :)

LOL.. Yea !! Seriously when the wind blow lets say 150 mph at minimum you seriously don't stand like this  lol.. but hey it's already a big/huge step forward!

The Spit cockpit is at a late FSX level right now.. witch is good.. finally!

Agreed and I think the team has seen what FSX has done; we all know he can do better. I am looking forward to it.

DirectX 11   

I'm gonna smack ya upside da head mit my uber-Tesselation....

Oleg Maddox, creator of the legendary Il2 series of WWII flight sims announced on his forum that the highly anticipated Il2 sequel Storm of War: Battle of Brittan will be DX11!:

Yeas waoo!! :)

That pilot should have been sucked out as soon as he started to climb out. He looked as if he was flying level, which would put him well above stall speed IMO.

DX11 will be all that DX10 wanted to be and more.

I agree about the difficulty settings GOZR and the perceived realism this truly next-gen sim might have...and it is good.

Man, I don't know if I'm just Mr. Critical or what, but

a) the high frequency oscillation oleg turbulence is still there - which to me is a big boo

b) this turbulence is made more artificial looking by the consequences to the instrumentation which appears to have no damping. I've seen lots of turbulence and G induced needle dynamics - and I've never seen such undamped motion in anything.

c) I assume that second video is not a bailout, he's just taking a stroll to the pub. . .that's *not* going to work whatsoever in flight.

Graphics wise it looks like the IL-2 game for the PS3.

yes i figure it's the basic and not really inflight bailout or flying The turbulence in cockpit look like the actual footage but in x2 speed. We will see since oleg do not give away the goodies on a public video..
I hope also the view of the head pilot position will be good because Il2 are not too good etheir and made for an easy sight. This is why i'm fighting at RoF with those completely wrong views and pit effects.
