Not exactly exact, but more exact than just 'September'. :smilewink:

 

In any case, Sptember is going to be a long month for many of us...

Thanks for the info. I will do my best to put my expectations towards the end of the month then.

I'll be using these last screenshot release as an occasion to ask something that has been on the back of my head for some time. The L39 is looking particularly gorgeous compared to other aircraft in DCS.

 

Is it due to superior model/texture work or is it mostly thanks to the updated engine (that other modules maybe just don't have the chance to advertise with)? I have to say the L-39 cast quite the shadow on other modules as a result. It really is a beautifully crafted product.

Better modelling, better engine, and expert screenshot taking ;)

The new Black Diamonds Skin is Superb.

I can't wait to fly this little machine. Just have to make sure to update my Open Beta and not my Release Version.

Modules: Well... all of 'em

It looks insanely good in videos too...so I suspect it is more than just the screenshot. :)

 

This is a good indicator of the future of DCS modules, the visual fidelity is probably going to keep improving.

 

I am particularly excited about the Tomcat and Hornet schemes, those TPS grey schemes will really look remarkably realistic with the kind of texture quality that we are seeing on the L-39 (and the MiG-21 for that matter).

Indeed, I hope that at some point the artists will be given the opportunity to bump up the other already released modules to these latest standards.

 

Really pleased with the L-39 model and texture.

English cockpit version?

 

I swear it must be in there somewhere but I cant find the information about the cockpit - is there an English version? I struggle to get my head around what button to push at the best of times and reading it in another language is beyond my meager capabilities.

 

Thanks.

I don't know about any official statement on the matter but if there's only native language available you can be sure in a relatively short time that a mod will come up to give the english cockpit option much like it happened for other aircraft in DCS. ^^

 

That said, learning a bit of cyrillic is fun and handy nowedays!

Also don't forget the English language labels. This has been a thing in DCS for as long as I remember, I don't think they are going to start cutting them from modules now.

If I remember right, Matt stated in one of the streams, that there will be an English cockpit.
