I'm in! Picked up the UE today! I decided that since the Germans had never got much love from me (mostly due to my inability to come up with cool names and them not having the N17 or SE5a), I would first enlist with Karl Spieler in the tail end of 1915:

It was, amazingly, a jaunt out over the lines with me in charge on my first flight! I was so nervous, I couldn't even remember my observer's name, let alone my wingman's. Of course, having the gun muzzle so close to my ear did not ease my concerns...

Well, as luck would have it, I made it back without any enemy contact. In fact, the ground forces were so busy pounding each other, they never even sent any ordinance our way. I feel fairly confident that future sorties will not be so placid...


The older I get, the more I realize I don't need to be Han, Luke or Leia. I'm just happy to be rebel scum...

Beautiful stuff!

As I was flying over the front at dusk, listening to the (improved I think) deep rumble of artillery beneath me, I realized that I enjoy just flying this sim and experiencing it as much as I do engaging in combat.

nothing too exciting here .. but as we all know .. my how its all come a long way

wonderful wonderful stuff truly

lighting and atmosphere bringing it more and more to life





Wallace Pickleworth training at Sutton's Farm ... so many balloons away into the distance smile





on your monitors these may just appear black, but on mine wonderful shades of blues and grays with the moonlight and searchers glinting here and there through clouds, off leading wing edges etc!



again, maybe hard to see on your monitors but a hauntingly wonderful shot through cloud with wing and wingman and sun beyond



and finally for now ... Pickleworth's observer / gunner with 'big friendly' poking its nose out from shadow and into the morning sunlight smile

we've all said it plenty but OBD ... thanks muchly and please keep at it!!

cheers, Ron

In the final pic, I think the Roland CII pilot managed to land it mere seconds before he died. I took the screenshot while his smoking plane filled with holes was still rolling to a stop, but he was slumped over the controls dead. Observer lived though. I guess it was his lucky day.

Also, in the second pic you can see the shadow of my pup on the Fokker. Love the new shaders AnKor. Just awesome.

Try not to spin now!

The connecting rod out of my brain, my brain,
From out of my arse take the camshaft,

Aris, you should make another mod that replaces the default mission loading pics (hand grenades, goggles, etc) with some of your more fabulous screenshots and those of some other folks. I bet it would look amazing and add some great inspiration when folks are about to go up on a mission of their own. Just a thought.

cheers
