Impressive. Xray shows shrapnels each exerting force on body and subsystems. Each subsystem also has a material assigned. If its aliminum, shrapnel rips through. If it's steel or cast iron, it's deflected. I wonder if shockwaves from bombs or blasts will aslo affect and damage planes?

Higher altitude clouds are represented with a skybox texture currently. Will the new weather rework replace the skybox?

Could the mosquito dogfight?

The knobs for flood light seem wrong to me. A small rotation and light intensity is plenty. Then rotate all the way for more intensity. Does these knobs control some kind of nuclear reaction?

Nice touch. Behaves like the instrument light of mig 15.

i've been using your mod(option3) for a week now. the removal of scratches from the canopy enables spotting in max zoom fov. however the front glass still has the same scratches appearing in a zoomed fov. there is one thing i would like to be improved with the mod. when sun reflects from the canopy, it literally blinds me. apart from that i think your mod does a decent job. thanks for improving my experience with the spit. of all the warbirds, i think fw190 a8 has the best looking canopy. imperfections are subtle, distractions and obstrucions are none. just beatiful.

my bad. it's the swap axis option you should check. not the invert option.

I use ms ffb2 joystick. When i apply deadzone and curve to pitch and roll axis, the plane behaves differently. So force feedback joysticks are not eligible for modifying curvature settings. Try resetting your custom curves and deadzone. And make sure you check the invert clickbox in ffb settings. This will probably solve your issue.

It's unacceptable and ridiculous that they had ground radar in 1940 and we still don't have NOW!!!

Both allied and german planes have their iff systems. Are they functional is a mystery. How would ww2 pilots use them actually, without an onboard radar?

we've been waiting for new dm like for ages(two years).

do you think heavy flak works ok in the sim? they act like fireworks in the game, cannot hit anything. in actual use, they had fragmentation effect, that would damage the target. i think this is the thing lacking in the sim. no blast or fragmentation for heavy guns.

normandy map was done by ugramedia.

Its the rotor blades.

viewing distance in settings relates to image details in horizon. try increasing to ultra or extreme.

This is relevant for ai flight model. Seen 2 or 3 times, in the BFM mission of BF109. When ai P-51 is shot down, or with pilot kill, plane falls like a brick but with no rotational movement. I've included a track file, where ai plane glides backwards. I know, there is a work on updated ai flight model, but you may want to eliminate this kind of erratic behaviour. reverse_flight.trk

Plane acts completely different in the instant action take off missions. In nevada takeoff, it immediately begins to turn left during rolloff and cant be controlled. In caucaus takeoff i have no difficulty in countering that behavior. The brakes are not effective in nellis afb.

I would rather support a kick starter campaign to promote the development of core engine features. Strongly against subscription model.

I've seen oil splash on canopy for the first time. Nice touch.

you can also learn to create your own missions in the mission editor.

I've setup a mission with stormy weather, thunderstorm and heavy cloud cover. From an angle when targeting circle is fully displayed on the glass, the reflective glass disappears. Glass reappears when circle intersects with sides of the glass. It's magic.

There are five new missions. Two of them are night flying and night landing. The remaining three missions are for BFM scenarios.

It happens while chasing a plane in a relatively steep climb. I lose control of the nose momentarily. It's like plane coughs for a second. Why does it behave like that?

It's possible that pitot tube is frozen thus the reading is faulty. But I don't know whether this is the cause of my experience or not. I watched a flight video with ice forming on wings. Pilot used heater system and eventually it melted and flowed over leading edges. Its a minor detail but a visual cue or effect for icing would be helpful.

i experienced same thing. this happened twice in low temperature setting in burning skies server(-2C ground temperature). at 4-5 km altitude, i read 700 km speed, descended while cutting power, for two minutes speed didn't change. then i read 400 km, but it felt like stall speed. and cb for pitot heating was on all the time.
