Thanks, guod.
Great report. OBD have surpassed all my expectations, and they were already high.
Can't wait for WOFF.

Wow! That looks amazing. I haven't played any of the earlier versions of OFF but WOFF looks like it will give my time with RoF a run for its money. Thanks McGonigle for the coverage and the OFF team for some great looking work

Thanks for the preview, Jens. Very exciting!

For those of you who haven't played OFF in a while, the modding community has done some amazing work to improve and deepen the experience and help bridge the gap between OFF and WOFF: improved flight and damage models, more historically accurate campaign missions and weather, reworked sounds, and more. My OFFice incomplete campaign editor even lets you manually report what happens to your squadmates in flight, witnessing crashes and claims and such, reducing the noted disconnect between your squadron roster and what happens in flight.

Follow the link in my signature for a start.

Great writeup, thank you. Never got CFS3 to run properly on my last system, very tempted now to search for the CDs and give it another whirl when WOFF is ready.

Great article! I enjoyed the write up and it really looks like we're close now... two weeks! I can heartily say that if you haven't tried OFF, this is going to be the definitive version. You're missing out on a lot if you don't.

Oh, and I nearly spit out my tea reading it this morning when I saw "CaptSopwith said..." in the article. First time I've been quoted! rofl

Jens "Mc Gonigle" Lindblad, you have written a fine article here, Sir!
Polovski had long promised a list of new features.
That time could now be saved for more working and improvement for WOFF -
your article seems to list most of it.

Jens, if you are an OFF flyer, I would like to add you to the "OFF Pilots Maps".
If you send me a message with your town and country, I will do so.

Oh you must not be married then...

I didn't see multi-player mentioned but I'm at work and just scanned thru the article for points that were most interesting to me. Excellent article!
