TY :-)

What's nice about the screen shots is that they've bothered to crank up the filters to get rid of the jaggies, unlike a *cough* certain development team of another premier simulation *cough* that seems intent on showing their product at low resolutions with no filtering at all!

Looking at that shot, I have just thought of something- we can use 6DoF to lean behind and aim each gun! Thats going to be the nuts imo!

Hey Guys,

Here's what VikS said concerning these latest pics for Knights:

PS: about screenshots - they are made on our game (some of last versions) but our attist add some things, that he think we havent at the moment, and he think that they should be kind of on these screens.
So just imagine, that its a "master pictures" for us, the ones which we will try to get in final

Looks like they're shooting for the look in these recent images.

Over 2000 replies to this thread!

this definetly will beat red baron

When... if... OH, GOD, WHEN! it comes out.

I hate teasers. Rather be suprised by discovering a game on the shelf, looking it up, and finding something I want to play... or that it has staforce, and thats it's not worth it.

In other words, these screenshots show an artist's impression on how the game should look, but not neccessary they show, how it will look like in the end.

Though, anything is possible (until it doesn't actually happen). He-he-he.

Will the graphics detail/quality be similar to Oleg's BOB?

Any idea on what system specs might be to run it at full tilt?

Thanks

Bump! In anticipation of tomorrow's update.

Barkhorn.

It looks similar in quality to BOB, or better

Like BOB I'd imagine that todays decent system will run it with playable framerates at medium detail and looking good. I'd be surprised, and maybe disappointed, if any system available today could run max detail.

I think KOS need it's own forum!

Agreed..

2000 plus posts on a game that is no longer IL2 based deserves its own forum. There are forums in here with less posts in all topics combined than this thread. I can't understand why it still has no room of it's own. There is a lot of interest in KOS. But the only info you get on SimHq for it is by searching the IL2 board and that is if you know this thread exists!
I think the time is right to open a forum for KOS in it's own right.

+ 1

Agreed - a new forum would also be ideal for those of us who can't visit the forums every day. It does take a while to scroll through this huge thread to find new salient points.

There's a thread in the "suggestion box" forum to add such a forum. Go there and add your wishes there also. I just did.

I'm very happy with this thread, all info is collected in one place. And there isn't that much activity, usually about 15 postings after each Gennadich update.

With the thread in this very active Il-2 forum, KoS gets much more exposure than if it was languishing in a forum all by itself.

It is not as if we're discussing 20 different topics concerning KoS. We're basically just blabbering on about the morsels Gennadich throws us every week.

You can have a look at the forums at Gennadich.com for more in-depth info.

I agree with Frey, there's no point starting another forum for maybe 10 posts a week about the screenies GT release.

Better here for now.

There's not that many posts on SoW, and thats got it own forum???

Lets have a new forum.. Show of hands..
