I think the improvement on land objects detail and graphics are super: congratulations to Maddox Games team!

Finally! We can see some nice features here: Use of co-axial guns, tanks following terrain textures. On the other hand, the tanks seem a bit close together (not spreading out except at the airfield) and the ground should probably be a bit bumpier (worsening their ability to fire on the move).

The tanks were reported to have a damage model comparable in detail to that of planes in the original Il-2. Is this true? Can they vehicles be disabled but not destroyed? That is what I'm wondering about...

So beautiful lot of details

Awesome. World of Tanks anyone?

And to think the decals on ground vehicles aren't working, yet.

Just a little hint - apart from Panzer IV platoons (which consisted of 4 tanks) all german tank platoons of 1940 consisted of five tanks. And armored recon platoons consisted of six vehicles (two of light SdKfz 222 and one of heavy SdKfz 232).

Wow! Impressive stuff, though sadly hardly visible to pilots. I think the tank crews could do with a little tactical training though...

Very basic DM's on vehicles.

Not sure if they can be disabled without being destroyed; have not experienced that

biltongbru, thank you for this wonderful video. It looks very fluid, FPS-wise. What are your system specs, and can you speak to the FPS you were getting (in case I missed that somewhere)?
thanks!

It is my pleasure!

Itel Quad core 3Ghz, GTX 480, Win7 64bit

Made the movie before latest patch.

1280x720

70% of the movie was recorded real time; 30% at 1/2 speed and then corrected with video editor.

I recorded at 25 fps (normal PAL TV framerate)

I get between 25 and 30 fps and it is ok for moviemaking.

With lots of smoke and vfx the fps goes down then I record at 1/2 speed.

Looking really good. What a difference to IL2 '46.
