Il2 Cliffs of Dover "VR support and volumetric clouds"

[+76.IAP-Blackbird]

Hello Pilots, 

Stormbirds summed up the new updates for Cliffs of Dover.

A series of updates over the last several days have focused on the work that Team Fusion Simulations is busy doing turning IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover into a VR supported sim. That’s not all because they are also busy upgrading the visuals of the sim with higher resolution textures and TrueSky technology for new volumetric clouds. Here’s the latest!

Try and find the bombers in these clouds

Higher resolution textures, VR support, and volumetric clouds round out the headline features of a future visual update coming to IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover Blitz and Desert Wings – Tobruk. These veteran sims are getting one of the most significant updates in the series’ history when it comes to core technologies and the inclusion of the new cloud technology, on its own, will likely be as transformative as it has been for other sims that have employed it.

Good luck trying to locate the bombers ducking in an out of those TrueSky clouds!

I couldn’t agree more with this statement from Team Fusion.

As of yet, no release date has been offered for this update and work appears to be ongoing on this project. Still, it seems like we’re getting closer to do the time when it will become available. It should be very interesting to check out when we get there. More to come!
