Fully Updated P-61 Black Widow by Oglivie!

anxious to try

I bet it'll help....in QC (bomber intercept) I've been close enough to Bettys at times to hear their engines yet unable to spot them,,, but then I'm not flying a clear night sky either.

man what a difference....great idea! :ernae:
 
those ain't stars dead ahead

:friday: I was still able to edit this post...lightened it up....hopefully to show how Betty's exhaust can be picked up a long way off in the black of the black.
 
:help:...guys, you have to stop posting these night shots please. They're just blacked out nothings with maybe a few spots of light where i guess something is supposed to be. I'm sure they look fine on your computers, but they show nothing but black as forum attachments.
 
Maybe it's your computer BC :costumes:, some computers, or 99.99% of all computers. I can distinctly make out the Betty in Oglivie's shot....but then maybe mine are black to him. Bummer.
 
Thanks, that's much better Hellcat...

Wow...with that kind of visibility, it looks like we're gonna need exhaust covers or flame suppressors to maintain our night stealth. :icon_lol:
 
Golly, what an ugly-lookin' plane! But Oglivie just sold me on it... gotta get it, and then it's back to the Texan for night gunnery training before I go out on missions.

BTW, there IS a P-61 being restored to fly... :woot: ... have a look here....http://www.maam.org/p61.html

LOVELY WORK!!! I LOVE THIS UGLY DUCKLING!! :friday:

I see them fine BC, I get the same comments when I post night shots. Maybe it has something to do with the brightness and contrast settings we have or the presence or absence of externally mounted screen filters.
 
Night exhaust flame effects....

Thanks Hellcat,

I think this last one I did turned out the best for the AI night exhaust flame. Much more visable, I was able to pick them up easier and stay with them...shooting down three out of three about every time. I think it too bright for player aircraft though.

Cheers,
O

Sorry, BC..I just had to post just one more.:icon_lol: But a somewhat better screenie than my previous one I posted.
