• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Screenshots!

Is that Switzerland or thereabouts in the Alps? CFS3's dealing with roads and rivers is always farcical in mountainous areas.
 
Not sure what you mean Dan, but if you're referring the difference between the wings and fuselage? The fuselage had stringers along it, so the geodetic structure didn't show through the fuselage fabric like it did on the wings. The only time I've seen the structure show on the body is when it's been damaged?
Also the effect is quite a bit exaggerated, I actually prefer it without the bump map, but If I don't do one, well you know the rest! lol
 
No, I think it may be that the skin over the structure on both the wings and the fuselage is brighter in the specular than the skin over the gaps and is maybe causing the exaggeration vs if the structure details were not part of the specular. Though it's hard to say from a screenshot.
 
The Germans were concerned that the allies would start using b29s to bomb. So they developed an interceptor to fly at altitudes they believed the b29 would use. There were a couple of versions that reached testing and the J-1 was one of them. They had several others with different engines, radar and roles. Yes go and take her above 30k she stills moves along pretty well with the turbosupercharged BMW or DB engines. I enjoyed making that one.....

Yes, it's Switzerland, and it was a real task getting the ship into water! I also had to change the 'WinterSeason' value in the cfs3europe.xml file for snow to appear far south enough, which it doesn't by default, regardless of the date.
