Trying to get more information about the Japanese planes in 1.43... Apparently the J7W1 has no elevators modeled at all yet and costs a shit ton to repair because Japan: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0AeLhI217I[/media] Great expectations to come for Japan.
Damn, I was gonna ask someone to export the Shinden's skin template for me so I could make that sky crawlers skin for it.
Hours later and the videos are still rendering I think someone shoulda told me that trying to render seven videos with seven different instances of Sony Vegas was a bad idea. On the plus side, my computer sounds like an airplane right now.
[QUOTE=Error_404;46035629]If anyone is familiar with World of Tanks and also plays War Thunder, is it worth trying out WT for the tanks alone?[/QUOTE] Ground Forces is an interesting concept, but needs a [B]shitload[/B] of work. IMO, is also terribly unoptimized. I get 25 FPS on planes, average, but I get only [B]9 FPS[/B] on Ground Forces. Which go down to 5 if I decide to move the tank

Which go down to 5 if I decide to move the tank[/QUOTE] If you get 25FPS with planes, you either really need to turn shit down or update your gear. Even my back-to-school six-year-old laptop could handle War Thunder planes at about 25-30FPS on low. Would probably nail a solid 5-15FPS in tanks. I would compare World of Tanks, but everyone already knows that the BigWorld engine is a hilariously trash one when it comes to optimization, especially after how far Wargaming's pushed it.
Got a whole bunch of pictures and videos from the airshow to sort through. Also have to wait a couple days to dump the pictures from a camera I borrowed from a family member. In the meantime, here's some samples: (thumbnail) [IMG_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/KCBXxJC.jpg[/IMG_thumb] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/871vUy3.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/3PvoZfO.jpg[/IMG] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0KUVNtjL1so[/media] Might upload a bunch tomorrow or Monday.
I saw an f-22 landing today at PDX (It looked like one at least) First time i'd seen one in person
[QUOTE=Skwee;46043709]I saw an f-22 landing today at PDX (It looked like one at least) First time i'd seen one in person[/QUOTE] It was probably the same one from the video. I was at the Hillsboro airshow. :v:
Was there a catalina at the show? I saw some thing weird flying around, but I couldn't really get a good look at it (I didn't go to the air show, I was just driving home)

I saw some thing weird flying around, but I couldn't really get a good look at it (I didn't go to the air show, I was just driving home)[/QUOTE] Yeah I saw a fat plane last night that kind of looked like a catalina at a first glance, but it was definitely a modern plane. Didn't see anything like it at the airshow.
damnit I live in [I]Hillsborough[/I]
How does ho229 turn without a rudder?
[QUOTE=aydin690;46043796]How does ho229 turn without a rudder?[/QUOTE] well most planes turn using ailerons, so I would assume it would use those. Also for rudder-like action I think it opens up an airbrake like thing on one side or the other depending on which way you push the pedals.
Videos are now processing. Might take a solid hour or two. I think so far, in this update: (Not commenting on copy-paste reskinned premiums.) [U][B]Fucking Excellent God-Tier:[/B][/U] - Flakpanzer IV Wirbelwind - Pz.Kpfw II Ausf. H - ZSU-57-2 - F7F-1 - Venom FB.

But... it's just pretty cool.) [B]Pretty Bad: -[/B] B-57a / Canberra B. Mk.2 (Good Payload, Zero Armament, Size of Commercial Airline) - Lancaster Mk.I [B]Fucking Garbage:[/B] - Go 229 - Kitsuka

A lot of people use to switch it to WinXP for awhile.

IIRC it's how all finless flying wings yaw. [IMG]http://www.456fis.org/HORTEN/got101[1].jpg[/IMG] Also fun fact: The 229's nosewheel is actually the tailwheel stolen from an He-177 bomber.
So, Youtube effectively killed my internet upload by using 100% bandwidth. I fixed it by modifying my router to use QoS and disallowing any one thing from using more than 90% of the bandwidth. My question to you guys is, should I start posting the dev server videos now as they process, or wait until all seven are done?

720/1080p is working, but it's a low quality video. Enough so you can pause and look at words, but not to look good in motion on a full screen. Anywho, here's the first four.

What BR does the Pz.II H get? A tier 1 Pz.II with a 50mm seems like it could be some hilarious shit.
Are your test flights in realistic or arcade? also wtf is that thing on the fuselage of the f7f
[QUOTE=Orkel;46044507]What BR does the Pz.II H get? A tier 1 Pz.II with a 50mm seems like it could be some hilarious shit.[/QUOTE] I got it in the video, but lemme lay the smack down. Panzer II H is Era I. (I forgot to check it's BR. Probably 2.0, 2.3) Panzer II H can get 130/150mm Pen APCR rounds if it so desires. Panzer II H does only carry about 40 ammo. Panzer II H is [highlight]ripshit fast.[/highlight] Panzer II H is basically a T-50 with double the penetration, at the cost of thin armor. It looks like a ton of fun. [QUOTE=Skwee;46044527]Are your test flights in realistic or arcade? also wtf is that thing on the fuselage of the f7f[/QUOTE] All in realistic, even if I'm flying them like a retard. I woulda spent more time, but even that short bit of 200-400kph at low altitude dickery ran me the entire dev server. If I took any longer, I woulda missed out. On the F7F, that's a ladder. It even retracts with the landing gear! v:v:v
Oh my god the IL-28 gets a [I]3000kg[/I] bomb

Why are the japs getting a B-17? Don't they have their G8N's and other heavy bombers
[QUOTE=Teippiman;46044965]Why are the japs getting a B-17? Don't they have their G8N's and other heavy bombers[/QUOTE] The G5 and G8 got gimped, hard.

[QUOTE=Teippiman;46044965]Why are the japs getting a B-17? Don't they have their G8N's and other heavy bombers[/QUOTE] Pretty sure it isn't a bomber
Kinda lame they go with the B-57 without the armament.
