Title: some help from the Photoshop pple
Post by: OntosMk1 on February 16, 2008, 07:21:15 PM

I will be the first to admit that I have little to NO experience with Photoshop. I suck, thats all there is to it. But ive seen some people on here that truely have a gift when it comes to making an average screenie look outstanding.

So, here is my request. I am trying to get HTC to emplament contrails into the game. Ive already gone over some of the High's and Low's of the topic and read indepth other topics on the subject matter but would like to "Show" some people how it might look in game.

 Using this screenie i would like to ask some of the PS guru's to add contrails to the bombers and possibly the fighter if needed or felt it would be warrented. The pic shown is obviously a lower rez pic. I can send the original via Email if so needed. OR, you could use another screenie that you might have grabbed from the game yourself. My point is to try and show what the game might look if planes developed contrails at "high" altitudes.
Cant wait to see some results.  <>

Yeah i know about Il-2:1946 and so on i used to be in the 56th Fighter wing with Nomde and French that fly here. What im shooting for is a picture of AH2 that would depict contrails in game...

Hi,
There is a scene in the movie Memphis Bell that shows b17's at alt with contrails.
The reason I point you to this footage is the contrails were made with ParticleIllusion, a 2d(fake 3d) particle emitter application. I would think the look would be very close to what contrails would look like in AH. The shot was total CG with 3d b17's and particle emitter contrails......
Hope this may help?
