Man, AH pilot graphics are horrid.

Don't hold back 15 new airplanes so that they look good AND turn like IL-2, but please...

Not that a blockhead in the cockpit isn't a ultra-realism graphical joke, heh.

But, where does HTC save FPS, I wonder, on a cockpit graphic? There are NO outside views in multiplay. Why make it a ...whatever that graphic is?

Weird.

They save FPS when you are attacking a plane, which, generally is done from a view outside the cockpit, eh? ;)

You are never close enough for it to matter.

If you want a fancy little dandy-boy, you might want to look elsewhere. :p

Creamo, didn't we just go over this in the general discussion forum?

Francy-Dandy boy work-a-round

I went to our local stationary store and bought a package of "smiley" faces.

When I see a plane, I stick one on my monitor over the plan's cockpit so I can pretend I'm looking at the pilot.

I have to keep moving the smiley face around the monitor... but it works for me - I'm happy :p

Creamo, I think you need to re-submit your pilot artwork.
That was a true classic!

Repost it if you can.

I think we should all have to submit scans of photos to HTC when you purchase a sub. That way I could see who I'm killing in their chute.

You'll zoom right by me and auger all over the place while your computer has frozen trying to download my bloated face....
