There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politicion will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment amoung members. It is a poison to the community. We apprciate compliance with the rules.

Certainly this B-17 is a bar raiser!
I noticed the shimmy of the cowling on start up before the narrator mentioned it. I was immediately impressed.

I would like to officially thank you all for watching this video. Scott really put me through my paces, but it was worth it. This product is genuinely amazing.
I would like to say, I only make videos of products that my team and I officially endorse. A2A Simulations is a complete class act, and I hope when you all get a chance to try this plane that you feel much as I do, completely immersed.
We take a lot of pride in our clients, and as such we try to only take on products that we ourselves would use. This B-17 is simply and utterly an amazing product.
Gentlemen, and ladies, this is a product fully endorsed by Jaggyroad Films.
I would like to mention that Scott and CO. (pokes Lewis) grace me by their presence. I hope you all enjoy this product when it is released.

I personally have not seen anything referring in any way shape or form to it coming this weekend. I would say by my best guesstimate maybe a 2/3 weeks away at the soonest. I searched their website/forums as well and didn't see anything. By no means am I complaining (I personally do hope it lands this weekend), but just want to verify before getting my hopes up. I tell you though after watching the video tons of times if they are going this far for an older WOP II aircraft. I can not wait to see what the WOP3 P-51D is going to have in store...
No F, only the G model.
Are we there yet?

How 'bout now? No, bummer! How 'bout now?

OK, I'm off to bed it will be easier to wait while sleeping.
Now? Just checking. Sigh.

I'm with ya on that Witt.... "Oh my, and a new pair of pants too!"
When I first started the video I was wondering why in hell Scott was showing us Heaven Sent and then switched to Yankee Lady. I knew he'd been with the YL crew for the obvious reasons. And in the next breathe asking why he was showing the real Yankee Lady in a video for the Accusim B-17, but it didn't register right away what was coming. Then it hit me like a brick..... this is IT..... the Accusim B-17.
Congrats Scott and A2A for a job extremely well done. No one anywhere will be able to top this. You all have set a new mark of excellence and standard for any addon to any simulation. Amazing work guys. If there was one, I'd love to give you all the "Holy Crap Marie!" award for such a great job.
I didn't notice at first sitting here with my mouth wide open and drooling all over what Gibbage meant. Taking a second and third look, he's right. The props do need to be fixed...... sometime in the future. Tho I'm sure for now few will notice, seeing they'll be busy getting her started and in the air. Good call Gib.
And when I get to see Yankee Lady again in June, I'll be looking at her with a new frame of mind this time around. :d

Not sure what you're on about, unless you're talking about a lack of a twist in the blades, (I haven't looked all that hard as that wasn't what I was looking for,) but what I did notice about the props, is there is no prop disc any more, just the same as the P-47. When the blades spin, what you're seeing in the sim is the actual turning blades of the props as you would in real life. Notice the thickness of the prob blades in some of the side angled views.
This is what I've wanted for years, (ever since B-17II, which showed a proper blade spinning,) no disc to represent a spinning prop.
That looks awesome.

Flight1 was kind enough to give us a copy of the software for my team. They, and the designer of the program deserve major props and kudos for the release of this software. The only negative side to it is that now everyone has access to it, whereas before it was a bit of a trade secret how we did some of this stuff. There are still things that we alone know how to do, but i digress. Regardless, competition is not a bad thing.
There were/are other ways of doing it, but yes, in that particular shot I used EZDok. That program gives my team and I a significant new way to film that allows us to focus more on editing without cheap tricks. It doesn't do EVERYTHING I could have dreamed, but it has reduced our time filming and given us new and unique tools for shots just as you described.

Unless you plan on rowing a boat with them, those props wont work Ya, its the twist in the props. Its a very small gripe, and one that is only noticeable when its standing still. Im just being overly picky, but I guess thats what I get for being an artist
Also, the overall shape just feels just way too simple. The leading and trailing edges are way too flat, plus the lack of twist, makes the props look like canoe paddle's too me.
Here is what im talking about.

Let me also say that I do NOT have a competing product, and im not currently associated with ANY 3rd party dev. Im just pointing out something I see. The rest of the product seems very top notch.
