• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    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 politician 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 among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Its a time to show our British pilots. Not in engine, but in final look (maybe tweaking of
colors we will need for the engine
)

It was a question of many users. Yes, at night we have ability to look for the lights on the ground... And I think it will be probably possible to set the amount of lights in different regions of map for the right “night time” gameplay. Attention: colors of lights are not final
You also may see on the shot the other very nice feature... and it is customizable by user...

What is possible to learn from these pictures:
1. We use real physics light-colors engine for calculations of changes during the whole day-night
2. Options on the left panel probably will be partially accessible for end user that to make superb screen shots.

And some shots from tools without complex lighting (not all engine features went in the viewer tool at the moment. It’s a part of color tunings we are working for)
You may notice many nice details... these models, optimized for the
massive objects/gameplay in the future of the sim series...

OMG, here I thought that I had bought my last computer, but it appears that some day I may have to upgrade again...... Now the problem is where do I find the money to do it.....:banghead::banghead:
 
MY system is an AMD x 2 2.8 ghz processor, an ATI Radeon 4850 video card, and 4 gigs of 667 mhz of ram. I too hope that my computer does not have to be upgraded again. Operating system is Windows 7 32 bit.
 
Maybe not. What system are you running ?

Naus, I am running a 2004 vintage Dell XPS Gen 2, Pentium 4 3.40 GHZ, 3.25 GB RAM, Visiontek ATI Radeon 512MB HD2600 Pro. OS is XP through SP3. C drive 300GB, D drive 74 GB and H drive 1.5 TB.
