Hellshade 110 Posted July 19 An intense little encounter while on patrol in my Alb DII with some Spad VIIs over a friendly air base. They managed to down a balloon but it cost them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaptSopwith 16 Posted August 4 So I've been splitting my flight time between WOFF and the new Microsoft Flight Simulator and my jaw hit the desk last night playing through my 1915 British campaign. As our patrol of Bristol's headed out I could see the cloud cover break and the small village below. MSFS uses a technique they call Photogrammetry, which creates some genuinely convincing images of the ground. It's surreal to fly over your own home as the sim models the weather just outside your door. But for a 20+ year old game engine to do the same thing - to essentially create 1915 Photogrammetry? I'm genuinely astonished! It's hard to complete missions because I keep pausing the sim to take more screenshots! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Polovski 298 Posted August 6 (edited) Great pictures CaptSopwith. I must say the scenery in all those looks excellent but the last pic looks especially good, WM did a superb job. Edited August 6 by Polovski Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jerhear 44 Posted Sunday at 09:15 PM Was patrolling over the Ypres battlefield (3rd one). Was very impressed by all that was going on at the same time. Ground bombardment, infantry attack you can't see from this height without labels, Archie fire, rain and you can see lightening striking in the distance (love the lightening). On top of all that, we (Jasta 18) are about to be attacked by some Nieuport 27s. Amazing! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jerhear 44 Posted Monday at 11:39 PM They're not on the screenshot. I had everything paused to take the shot, then when I came back to the cockpit view I had Nieuports up my butt. Just relaying how many things are going on at once here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Polovski 298 Posted Tuesday at 02:31 PM I think Rick as asking what happened in the scrap between you and the Nieups. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
