I suspect that may be rather difficult in the Camel however. _________________________ Administration Officer Wing Walkers (virtual) Combat Squadron

Hey what happened to the torque effect on startup like in the promo vid's when the plane really rocked side-to-side? _________________________ Gateway FX7026 Quad core 2.5GHz, 7.1 Audio, 8 gig ram Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Bose Champion-5 sound system Samsung 2493HM LCD 24" monitor NVIDIA® GeForce® GTS 250 w/ 1 GB GDDR3.

Straining myself to think of a plane that has a tendency to pull to the left and has an excellent climbing turn. Ding dong, it's Noop 28 o'clock! Oh and what big fat targets these slow turning Dr. 1 pseudo-Richthofens will be!

You don't know how many tries were necessary to achieve the kills that can be seen on the video. From my experience in game, it is really not that easy to break the opponent's plane wings.

Yes, you're only getting the high-lights from a couple hours of game play.

Agent X20 Member Registered: 04/13/00 Posts: 245 Loc: Wellington, New Zealand	Out of curiosity what sort of spec harware are you using there Jason? I'd like to think my E8500/4GB/4890 could deliver visuals like that but I've never managed it. _________________________ KiwiSim 'Who said Kiwis couldn't fly?!'

777 Studios - Jason Senior Member Registered: 02/04/08 Posts: 2962 Loc: Redlands, CA	I posted them in the Camel thread I think. I have a high-end system and a mid-range system. Both are able to run nearly the same graphics. But in the vid you see everything is maxed except landscape which is on medium and doesn't seem to make much of a visual difference if at all.
