Update on Update.

Can't really agree with you there either.  B-26 was horribly outdated and needed to be redone.

Adding the A-26 would be good too, but it does not obviate the need to update the 2000 and 2001 3D models.

*shrug* That's fine, I didn't expect the reference to be taken seriously anyway. My original post was more whimsical than anything, reflecting back on the silly fun that was had when "blood pigging" got its name in AW in the early '90's. That sort of thing isn't possible in this game...obviously that underlying reference and its inherent sillyness was missed. Nothing to argue about here.

RIP Aces High v1.00 3D models.

 

Will be missed

remove Karnack from the boards and add Midway back,

May the fleas of a thousand camels infest your shorts for that comment.....

     HiTech has perked my interest. 

    I would pay $15.95 for such improvments.

I think it may partly be because people STILL don't get that the B-26 and A-26 are two entirely different, unrelated aircraft.

 Probable because they shared a letter for a while  .... I think... I probable have to look it up again   but the A-26 was the Douglas A/B-26 Invader... when the A-26 came out the A-26B <solid nose wwII version> and A-26C <glass nose> was changed to B-26 later in the 40's<1947/8?>. The Douglas plane was classified/called the B-26 for a period of time. Not to be confused with the Martin plane the B-26 Marauder of course.

Looks very nice indeed.

However, I do think that B-26 needs to be transitioned to an A-26. Blood Pig'n (most fun in a game ever) must rise again! ;->

 There are some that still do it on occasion in an A-20

I showed this to the wife..."she says beautiful.... where is it?"

I say this is Aces High........."no it's not"........

Decentralisation of the strats is enough to make me re-sub.
The rest, well I hope my pc can handle it.  Look great though.

Wow, great graphic.  Looks like my neck of the woods, flying from 4-Corners area to Denver mountains.

For the past month I have been working on light scattering.

The image below I took from from the sample code I am working from.

Currently I have stopped work for a few weeks on the new engine to do an update with the existing engine.

The update includes a new plane and a remade b26. We are also reworking the strat to decentralize all the factories.

And doing an update to the mission system so that missions can be pre scheduled an repeat. After the release it will be back to working on the new engine.

Outstanding, especially the news on the B-26 remake!

Ut O! Stopping the BIG update for smaller stuff.

I smell hints of CT again.

I'm curious...

On the large maps, will the area's be zoned like before?  Or will it still be this set of strats, only scattered?  An idea is; If it's going to be where we have multiple zones, you could keep the Captial (aka: Mega Strat) in the back for the rear fields.  Just break things up for the forward fields like in the past.  The only change would be to the City strats on the front to only affect town downtimes while the current setup for the Industrial Center remains the same (which would be rear field towns/HQ downtime).  For small maps, you could just have the city strat by the HQ with the other strats scattered along.  I hope that the city strats will take on a new look, and even vary between small, medium*, and large maps.

*Now that I think about it, do we really have ANY map that could be considered "medium"?
