Will there be realistic weather? Changing weather, rain, sun, cold, snow, and such? Actual day/nite changes?
Will the vehicles be affected by the weather conditions as well? 
Besides that, the devs told me this in regards to your question:
"Game missions are [too] short for weather changes and day/night changes." [/b]Well too bad about the snow I am still hoping for eventual expansions to other periods in the war and other theatres.

First I am really looking forward to this! :thumbs_up: Please developers...take your time and get it right (for you old timers , remember "Across the Rhine" LOL!, over 2 years in development and was a complete flop), the WWII Armor sim community has been waiting a long, long time for a decent sim to come along.
My biggest question, what are the plans for the multiplayer aspect?
Untill the release, just gonna sit back, play some SB, and study up with "Panzertaktik" by Wolfgang Schneider :Popcorn:

Couple of detail-shots of the playable Tiger. The model has been refined a bit. Still far from done, but the devs wanted to share that with you. And yes, the devs know about the little things that are missing or aren't done yet, for example the grenade launcher, the towing cables, the emergency hatch, the on-board tools, etc. ... all in due time...  Here we go: ![[Linked Image]](http://www.halfevil.de/ww2scalemodeler/gallery/rainer_rohde/ww2-tank-sim/2006-04-21/ATT13047.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://www.halfevil.de/ww2scalemodeler/gallery/rainer_rohde/ww2-tank-sim/2006-04-21/ATT13046.jpg) Next I hope I will be able to show you some textured interior shots of the Tiger...

I can tell you that multiplayer is planned, but to what extent, I don't know yet. Since the sim is still in pre-alpha, the feature list is not finalized yet.

That should include add-ons with new driveable vehicles, theatres, etc, etc. But then again, it is hard to speculate about these things when the development of this game hasn't even reached beta-status yet!

Right on. Those are images from the "prototype" version that I have as well. Looks all too familiar to me...

These are the four round things mounted on the rear of the tank on the outside of the mufflers. here is a link showing what I am talking about. http://www.worldwar2aces.com/tiger-tank/tiger-tank-images/tiger-tank-21.jpg

Nah.. those Feifel-Filters were only used on early Tigers (during 1943). What we depict in the game is a later Version Tiger, which didn't use the Feifel-Filters anymore. The main reason of those Filters were to provide clean, dust-free air as that was especially needed in Tunesia where the Tiger debuted.

Well, if you're hinting that the late Tiger is supposed to have steel-wheels instead of rubber-rimmed wheels - the dev team is aware of that and it will change to reflect that accordingly. For now, it's still pre-alpha status...

Quick update: The devs sent me this one and I thought I should share that with you. It's a screenshot from Maya showing the 3D interior of the Tiger modeled after historically accurate references. As you can see, there are no "real" textures on there yet, as that's what the team is working on at the moment. Remember, this is also pre-alpha: I think the amount of detail is quite impressive! ![[Linked Image]](http://halfevil.de/ww2scalemodeler/gallery/rainer_rohde/ww2-tank-sim/turret_interior_2006-04-22/Tiger_IN0001.jpg)
