Friday 2010-10-22 Dev. update and Discussion

[philip.ed]

Oleg, I just saw these questions posted by JAMF which I think are really interesting:

- Is surround gaming (3 screens) being taken into account in development? Flexible FoV? Or will there be an option for users wit 3 screens, to render the view through 3 viewports, like it was done in the racing simulation rFactor?

- Will it be possible to use real DeviceLink cockpit dials in MP? As a way to avoid what could be considered cheating by others, the dials which are destroyed in the game, the real cockpit dials get deactivated through DeviceLink (data output = 0).

- Will we see raindrops on the windscreen, like in the original IL2 demo?

- Will we see rivets on the wing and would they be bump- or normal-mapped?

Will mousing over the maps in the lower right bring up the map display?

Holy mother of all cows - those cockpits are truly amazing! The only thing missing to make them 100% realistic is some of my drool on the glass

I also realized that I skimmed some posts by Oleg in this thread for the first time in years without even reading them as it's Friday night and my wife demands attention... I was not long ago that I would have yelled "Quiet woman! One of my gurus have spoken - and I have to read every sentence at least ten times and wrestle all the information I can out of it!"

Have a good weekend Oleg (and the team!)!
