Hey guys, glad to see that you are enjoying this video!
Now to answer some questions here;
Water = It's exactly as it looks like in the video, it really looks that good.
Raindrops on water = This is also from in-game.
Sun effects/glare = In-game all the way.
And with every shot in the movie, i use full real FM. No arcade flying here.
And about some of the shots having too much shake, i dont agree.
In many parts of the movie the camera is barely moving, and to me, it looks better/more natural to create movement for the camera during the hectic scenes. Maybe we're just used to *not* seeing this created in many sim movies? :)
And yes, this is Dx9 version. No DX 11 stuff in this video.
Also sorry about not having any shots with use of Chaff/flare. I just recently discovered how to use them, lol :D
