AH2 graphics getting closer to real life
« on: April 19, 2004, 08:37:31 AM »
Hi All,

I think that AH2 terrain is starting to look a lot like reality.
Anyone care to post an in game shot comparison?

I took these on Sunday:

Lol. I really hope I live long enough to see terrain like that:D

I still think the original Microsoft Combat Flight Simulatir 1 was the best terrain from altitude yet.

Setting aside its proficiency as a game, FS2004(compatible with CFS3) is incredible in its own way, too.


Yak-3

 ..

 Ofcourse, with this guy editing films I'd bet AH2 would look like that, too. :D

Intersting comment re: colours. I have NO idea how to calibrate colours. I can only imagine a game designers/artists nightmare getting the accurate colours.


I clicked on an image enhancement button, and this is what it spat out:

(Still waiting for some AH2 pics for comparison)










edit for pics

Errr you have to be kidding?

AH2 graphics at this stage are terrible, hugely dissapointed with the terrain graphics to date.

Yeah,

IL2 still blows AHII away, graphically, unfortunatly.  

But AHIIs graphics have gotten better than they were.

Yep I like both, IL2 is great but it never seems to have any point to it.......AH gameplay makes up for the graphics.

Im not kidding GIXER, IMO I think they are looking more realistic. Most of what I see in Flight Sims has in the past not looked like what I see out the window.

Thanks for the P40 pic.... I havnt seen those clouds before.... I think that was a version .20 addition?

AHII graphics are really 'fuzzy' on my computer, very unclear.

Almost a step back when in comparison with some AH I maps.

But.. and a big but...

This is only beta :D

AH2 is just way too dark.  Look at the underside of the P-40, in real life it wouldn't be black :rolleyes:
