I think this screenshot summarises my exasperation with CloD. The Heinkel 111 is a really nice 3D model and the self-shadowing we know is well done. The 3D model is arguably as good as anything in RoF, which is praise indeed. The skin is a bit rough, to be honest. But the terrain is offensively, hideously, jaw-droppingly unlike anything you would expect to see in England. I live there and the violence this representation inflicts on my green and pleasant land is rather annoying. The colours belong in some LSD-induced nightmare, not a flight sim from the second decade of the 21st Century. Other than that, it's fine.

The colours are too weak, it looks like a watercolour painting. And take it from a man who knows, LSD induced nightmares run much deeper than mildly annoying colours

If i would hazzord a guess i would say he is using low ground detail.

Sertainly looks like it.

Maby even "tweaked" the colours to.

Well. You really know that the difference between this:



and this:



is the landscape quality settings ( and some ATI drivers problems ), right?
As both shots are from the same game. SO, would you really say the same about the second image?

Very nice picture Ailantd Can you tell us what the ingame settings are?

I would really like to see some screenshots of the german airfields in France especially the ones at Cherbourg, Le Tourquet, Sempy and Neuville.

Hope some one will take the time

Best regards

The main cause of the difference is the time of day. Clod looks better at sunrise and sunset than it does nearer the middle of the day.

+1
Besides down sized pictures always look way better.

I wouldn't hold any breath in anticipation, there are quite a few inadequacies in terms of detail at many airfields, I did take a look at Le Touquet myself and it is nothing more than a grass strip with some fortified aircraft parking......no hangars or buildings at all.

Heinkel picture=France, probably on lower settings.
Spit pic=blighty with high settings (although, to look like England, trees need to get darker in the distance, and hedgerows are needed!)

Please throw me a screenshot

Hope we can remedy this shortcoming when the moderation tools become available.. Or just use the FMB..
