Well, they'd need a lot of free time to do that! LOL

I secretly hope you're right. It'd be a laugh :D

So is it possible to assume that we dont have a clue about the real state of SOW ? IMHO, this mystery is part of the big secret surrounding SOW...
ANd it is just plain fun to get into X-Files conspiracy theory...:grin:...since we have nothing else to do for now...Hum...Apart working, taking the kids to school and so on....:rolleyes:

Salute !

God people will believe any little comment someone posts....their was never a reliable rumor about the sim being dead. Just troll posts...

I was only reffering to a situatiuon that lasted for few weeks on this forum...
Of course it was nothing more than a rumor.,.But this whole forum is all about rumors ;) since all we've got is few low- res screenshots every 7 days on one hand, and on the other Oleg's statements about up coming (he insisted on 2010) release and top notch graphics...
Now, with the info (or lack of) we have at this point, trying to put those two hands togheter :!: demands a lot of...speculation ...and imagination...:cool:

Speculation + imagination= rumors...:rolleyes:

Salute !

Don't forget there was transformation from OpenGL in to DirectX .
That of course must look different comparing OpenGL graphics back
then and now with the latest DirectX screenshots .
So called " BoB:SoW " video which was included with IL-2 1946 release
was using previous OpenGL rendering engine and not the new DirectX :cool:

Didn't Oleg tell some time ago that OpenGl will be the main in SoW BoB? So i guess it will look better in OpenGL.

No, it was the other way around and the engine is now based on DirectX. Shouldn't make much of a difference for the end result anyway; my understanding is that DirectX is more convenient for development these days, and the driver situation also seems to be better.

Thanks for clearing up.
But he said that it will look better on Nvidia cards? Hope i'm not wrong again.

I'm sure he probably meant that the game is more optimized for NVidia cards since they apparently supplied him with some samples. Then again he's not likely to ignore over 1/2 the market and not do some optimizing for ATI cards as well. A lot of games that were optimized for one usually only run a few FPS better than the competitor.

As far as looking different on one card compared to the other . . . I don't think you can really do that.

I don't think Nvidia has a card as fast as a 5970.
