Very impressive work! Very much looking forward to the release. "When it's ready", of course. :)

[Spectre_USA]

Looks like the vid was taken just a few hundred feet outside the LOLA, an area

I know ever so well.

 

NOICE!

[DarkStar]

This is going to bring a new "feel" to the game, definitely! :)

[Cali]

This one reminds me of my flight at Nellis, nice job guys!

[Phantom453]

Thanks for the update.

 

Love the detail and can't wait to get it.

Hello Matt,

You may want to have a look into this nifty program from Microsoft - its free-ware:http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/groups/ivm/ice/

It's a image-composer for panorama images and very easy to use.

-You grab some overlapping images - and pull them into this program - and you only have choose your projection method - and than you get a panorama-image out of it like this:

 

This should serve you well if you want to show us more impressive pictures for upcoming updates...:)

Here is a gallery of the 9 pictures I used for this panorama -they all screen-captures of your video:

And here is a example how a cockpit panorama can look like (it created out of 32 single pictures.):

 

 

 

(you can notice occasional misalignment in the picture- but only because I didn't paid real attention how many degrees the images overlap -and I changed the zoom-factor while making the screen-shots- with a little more care there should be everywhere a perfect alignment )

I love that tool, I've used it to help make one of those miniature world photoshops, very fun.

 

Just curious, how does Nevada compare to the current map in terms of the number buildings?

Hi Grimes,

Do you mean like the tiltshift lens? If yes I would like to see your work ;)

 

I have tried to do a few of them but they never look as good as when the use the real thing (Tiltshift lenses are well out of my price range).

 

I can say one thing ...... my wallet is ready for Nevada!! Looking very good so far and good job to those involved!

I noticed that aswell. I hope we can turn (military) vehicle lights on and off in the mission editor.

 

Can't wait for this add-on to be released.

[Trident]

"Incredible" is the word that comes to mind! I can't tell whether the terrain mesh resolution has been improved, but the rest is absolutely beyond reproach - outstanding work!

[Dimebag]

This is blowing my mind, just amazing detail to rival FSX. I think I even noticed individual leaves on the trees, or I might have just been imagining.

[EagleEye]

Looking forward to it. I really need a change from the current map...

[Boberro]

Pictures are quite nice good it is not the final though. Keep going it is worth.

[leafer]

To think I'll get this update for free! I'm not worthy so I'll buy a copy. :)

[Jona33]

I've been wondering. How many GBU's will it take to destroy the strip :rotflmao::rotflmao:

[WRFirefox]

Jona, this should be very easy - just let a B-52 with full loadout make the job!:music_whistling:

[Dejjvid]

Not a good week...

 

First my girlfriend trash my TrackClip Pro. Then i realize i must buy a new computer to run Nevada on highest :(

They break pretty easy,I have mine held together with rubberbands and paper clips!:doh:

[Quirkitized]

Now those look pretty good ;) Definitely better than the previous work in progress shots.

 

Keep up the good work!

This Nevada map will be Black Shark compatible right?
