Just amazing!!! looking forward to have it downloaded and installed! What is the effect like at lower altitude? is it enjoyable only at high altitude?

With the HSV1 you can actually rocket to space quite fast ;)



It's a pity though that the flight dynamics at such altitudes aren't modelled realistically - has anybody looked into whether it's possible to improve that?

It's equally enjoyable at lower altitudes ;)

Fantastic. Even my tired eyes can see the difference.
Another reason to do some high alt missions on good looking maps, just for visual pleasure.

1. The main problem in IL-2 is a bad plot of land at low altitudes.
2. Good luck and success to you.

1. Not sure what you mean exactly, but theoretically it should be possible to use any texturing scheme we like, since the original terrain rendering is completely bypassed. If you mean the low heightmap resolution - yes there is probably nothing that can be done about that (but I wouldn't completely rule it out).
2. Thanks :)
