Hey guys, for the last many months I've been developing an abstract BFM trainer, that uses abstract, simplistic and minimalistic graphics.
The focus is dead straight on BFM, fighter maneuvering, with advanced intelligent AI. It has simple controls, runs on old dumps, supports network multiplayer up to 32 players in 4 teams. It supports joystick input (also recommended method of input), and has relatively realistic dynamics (It's far from commercial simulators, but it defintely ain't no HAWX.). It even supports recording to TacView ACMI format!
Basically think of it as the dogfight training mode of your favourite jet flight sim (Falcon 4 / LOMAC dogfghting training modes), except free and open-source, and much simplified. The idea is to focus on BFM skills and actics without having to worry about 500 keys in your cockpit avionics systems or epic, lagging graphics.

I very much hope this raises interest of members here! (especially the people who are fed up with arcade nonsense physics in HAWX and Ace Combat type games) :smilewink:
