Just a lot of propaganda started in response to wop terrain textures. They got caught with their pants down by W.o.P terrain. Be sure.

I would love to be wrong ....... but not hopeful of all the 'qualifiers' I have heard.

Lets see.

Well I'm not sure where you've been looking but I've seen the screenshot of the elevation grid map showing the river banks etc. that will be in SOW.

Also every screenshot of aircraft, buildings, and vehicles of SOW have been more detailed than BOP.

Oleg also says in these forums that everything is better in SOW. I have no doubt with Oleg being a professional photographer, he knows what the terrain in England should looked like in 1939 and should be able to convey this in his sim.

Why should I believe Oleg...well he has already delivered the best combat flight sim in the IL-2 series so has a possitive history. Sure SOW is late but in that time he delivered Pacific Fighters, IL-2 1946 etc...

I have no reason to believe any na sayers who never contributed anything to my sim enjoyment.


I helped beta test WOP and enjoyed it very much. I was blown away with the graphics and thought they were the best I've seen in a combat flight sim. That said theres plenty of room of improvement.

ie. River Banks
Better roads and railways { I don't think I seen a railway track on the BOB map.
Much larger Map {especially the BOB map} this also would facilitate opposition airfields
Clouds
Moving weather patterns

Lighting in WOP killed the game for me in Simulation mode. Aircraft disappeared anywhere in the sky 180 degrees on the side of the sun in many missions. No amount of Nvidia brightness, gamma, etc would fix it.

Like I said earlier WOP did an excellent job with frame rates and LOD's, this will be Olegs toughtest job with the high detail of SOW.
