• 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.

As he has announced in the last simhq interview, Oleg has begun to post in game screenshots. Also there will be more regular updates on fridays from now on. Terrain looks very WIP, lighting is excellent. They don't use openGl anymore, new engine is based on DirectX. Some hoghlights:

For me it's anyway time to buy a new PC when SOW is released next year. Oleg's new engine has full support for multicores and directX 11, thus I hope it will be easier to get good performance than to build a machine that can run FSX with max settings and high detail scenery and add on aircraft.

Some new screenshots are circulating:
