I can only say great things about Shred for going into the level of detail he did to put so many pilots active in the game. It's as if you are really part of a living squadron, regardless of choice.

Ultimately it would be incredible to have a skin for every active pilot, not just aces we know of. Then you would see how definitive this game really is. I've never seen anything like it before, and never will again.

OvS, those new skins are truly things of beauty. Outstanding work as always!

Any chance for another sneak peek or quick preview of WOFF 2020, Pol?

Another factor which this sim excels at, IMHO: Representing different skins, at the same time, for historical planes/pilots. I mean, it really is remarkable...like stepping back in time, seeing the rows of Albatros machines in full glory with colorful livery. Gives one a heightened sense of how the name "Flying Circus" came about.

Beautiful work.

The new features are so many now, and the list has not been internally updated for a few weeks, but here are a few meaty items ...


- Collision damage physics and effects associated with ground objects, scenery objects, terrain, and other aircraft overhauled and new effects implemented and or revised.


- Progressive damage now modelled for main wings - AI and Player


Which means if you have wing tip damage you had better get out of the action soon, perhaps the wing will begin to fail...


- All aircraft range/durations adjusted to be as near to actual as possible.


- FE2b can now fight more as a fighter it has new code to allow this specific case.


- Implemented a new mission replay function

(not to re-fly but to watch how the mission unfolded with various filtering options),


I mentioned the scenery is totally massively overhauled including much better blending and more, so we will have more on that later...

Ooh, ooh,.......very very nice and since it is called to 2020 release I guess that implies this year, RIGHT??

Pol, I am reflecting on your comment "scenery has been updated, including areas outside of the usual WW1 zones." Would this imply other countries currently within the WOFF map such as Italy for example? Just trying to clarify your statement.

Yes Robert the front is updated as is England, but any generic areas not on the Western front / England also look very cool now, including Germany for example.

We hope we can keep it 2020, but you know how 2 weeks wizzes by.

Uff, and all these things with the old cfs3-engine!
I see my good old system smoking, hear it like the roaring engine of a crashing plane, feel the wind in my face because of the overdriving air cooler, … .

Seriously:
Great @Pol, simply great!

Thanks for info and greetings

It just keeps getting better and better. Thank you for sharing Pol! It really is appreciated. It certainly does sound like you guys are flat out on making additions and improvents.

[edit] Just adding a few other pics Pol posted on the WOFF Facebook group.

Pol, does that mean there will be less wings getting ripped off without a prior visual cue? I hate it when they just come off. Will we be able to spot the imminent catastrophe and nurse our bird back to base on a wing and a prayer?

I guess it depends on how you are losing wings, but the visual clue will be you have for example a wing tip missing wink .. then it's a good possibility if you fly on it will rip the rest off. If you overspeed there will now be prop whine, your wires start to "sing" and the aircraft will vibrate as you increase speed. If you are hearing and seeing all that you have some clues. Also over stress the creaking sound is there for a reason, too much and it will rip something off. Ease off in the turn or pull up if you hear creaking.
(There are also less wings ripping off in 1 go too).
