Ok, here is an area where CloD's and IL2/46's water is far far better.

Reflections.

The water in RoF looks like it's liquid metal in game. And note that the reflections are transmitted under the hull, there is no reflection of the lower wing or the hull itself.

The sea movement looks fantastic, but i dont really like the reflections of the water, ive never seen the channel that colour or reflect like that.

From the vid, the landscape looks more like the England i know.

talking about reflections, anyone else think this looks rather odd, watch from 1:35 onwards, and the burning plane,



As i said in my previous post Furbs, i agree with you on the texture of England though.

Could you do a vid with overcast or heavy low cloud?

Cheers.

Cheers, if you dont mind...

Heavy cloud, start above 5k over the coast and come down then low flight over the sea to inland, set time around 6pm.

Overcast, start low over the sea, work inland, time around 4pm.


Cheers FB.

Will do. The vids themselves won't take long to make at all, however, due to my third world internet connection (SE English village) the upload time to youtube will!

I'll get a screen shot shortly to illustrate.

And yes, Olegs's water is better than Loft's, by a fairly large margin.
Oleg? He no work here no more.
