What they dont show is the muzzle flash of a 30mm gun, which turns the whole plane (shooter) into a flying fireball until the trigger is released :D

Oh yes Oleg's dumb hydrogen bomb explosion at midnight muzzle flashes....  That has been a constant complaint since the first relese of IL2 and the stubborn old commie simply refuses to change it... :confused:

It still lloks like crap, like a cartoon. It reminds me of that hideus blown up bubble P51 graphic thing Voss had around a few years back...

Maybe it was bitten by a scorpion?

One thing I can't seem to understand is why the figures in the B-29 all have on jumpsuits and masks. Wasn't the B-29 a pressurized aircraft.

Im with Grunhurtx. The textures are bad on the B29. We have all seen natural metal aircraft and they dont look like that.
Its like it has a photoshop "terminator 2000" special effect done on it.
The detailed picture looks worse not better.

All planes can be reskinned, doesn't really matter what the defaults are.

Pretty certain theres a way to make the campaign use a different default skin for each plane type.

There is.

 Who cares what the b29 looks like? Its a 3rd party ac and not flyable. They skimped on polys to get in just like HT skimps on polys in most of his ac.

Pacific Fighters itself is a 3rd party addon.

The same type of KeWl DeWdZ who want the B29 in AH are the ones who want it in PF.

However, nothing beats the atmosphere of FB/AEP. Muzzle explosions and all.

Me and a few ex-AH'r / WB'rs fly on HL together a few nights a week and have a blast. Its even funner killing 51s in AEP then it ever was in AH.

Reschke,

Pilot skins are changeable like everything else. However, the masks are hard coded in. Above 3k meters the masks appear automaticallly on all pilots.

Its just one of those things.
