D*i*l*l*i*g*a*f*

I've noticed Pilots shadows on the Tiger Moth.

Its a secret portal, whatever you do, do not PRESS on the dial while in flight, you will be automatically time warped to a parallel dimension in which this flight sim actually works as was promised.

Is this a secret mirror patch? Is that a 109 over your left shoulder?

Anyway, there is one behind you so stop combing your hair and get your head out of the office !!!

No you understand why I plead for some sexy female pilots characters being added ;)

Upon reflection, I was a little too close to the water to try a tight turn:

My first attempt at flying the Dr.1 online in Rise of Flight. Spectacular, but not the way to do it...

Mmmmm, Doppler effect. :cool:

It's just my opinion. Plenty of other sims have managed a reasonable representation of glass in cockpit, without worrying about a static player reflection texture. To me it just looks weird, maybe especially as you can look down in your seat and see nobody there. I would much rather something more like this...

you need glasses mate I can see some blue sky and clouds in that image-look again but closely-???

What I'm saying shouldn't be too hard to understand. The problem is a lack of reflected movement across the surface of the dial when ingame. As a still image, sure it looks something like glass, but in game, the illusion is broken because the reflection never changes. I guess you could argue that since the pilot isn't going anywhere, then the reflection should remain static... but it is the world around the plane which should be reflected, and using something like a cubemap for this is, imo, a better look.
