New video 2011-02-13 WITH SOUND!

[White Owl]

Why does that Hurricane appear to have only two guns? Or maybe the tracers were only loaded into one gun on each side... I guess that's possible.

What is that symbol in the lower left corner? It looks like some kind of gauge, but it doesn't move once through the whole video.

Cool video.

Enjoy one more video, this time BF109

As far as I remember, the ammo belts will be customisable, I guess that's why there are no trailing tracers, or why you can only see a some of the guns' tracers. Calling it lasers is a little bit silly, since all gun-cam footage where such kind of ammunition is employed shows exactly the same style of tracer seen in the video.

About the formation passing and the noise, the realistic way is not hearing nearly a thing, or anything at all. I don't know how it'll work in the end, but the way we see now in Il-2 is not realistic.

Well, either way, fantastic video.

You're right, only tracers in 2 guns (CoD has selectable ammo for each gun)
If you wanted to be historically correct you'd only have 1 gun loaded with tracers for the RAF.

I like the sounds actually, I feel like I can hear the loud tiney echo of the engines resonating inside the cockpit. When the throttle gets cut you hear an almost relative silence which I love.

Nice to see full screen fraps style video running at a high frame rate as well.

I thought the same of the crash smoke - but, contrary, I find it terrible.
It was bad back in IL-2, it is still bad now.

Not too good ok, but not bad-bad.
It can be improved nevertheless.

If the "smokers" in this shot are tracers then I don't believe that statement is entirely true. I'm sure different squadrons used/tried different mixes during the battle.

No, he's wrong to a degree. Whilst no evidence that I've seen suggests that there was a definitive set-up for how the pilots loaded their tracers, pilot reports show that it was a very personal affair, so there'd be a number of different variations (e.g. tracer only in the last few rounds, tracer in one gun, tracer in two guns, tracer in one gun only in the last few rounds etc )
I think Winny was trying to suggest this....but I think he is wrong in saying that there was a definitive way in which the RAF loaded their tracer....
