Standalone Film Viewer
« on: July 24, 2008, 04:27:23 PM »
I'd like to view films during those times when I'm having lunch at work (or just bored).  A downloadable standalone viewer would be great, cuz I don't want to d/l the whole game just to view films.  When I'm home I want to fly, not view film.  :D
My Current Rig:
GigaByte GA-X99-UD4 Mobo w/ 16Gb RAM
Intel i7 5820k, Win7 64-bit
NVidia GTX 970 4Gb ACX 2.0
Track IR, CH Fighterstick, CH Pro Throttle, CH Pro Pedals

A standalone film viewer couldn't be much smaller than the game - because your films are not real "films", but rather raw data that needs the game engine to show. Basically the game engine is recreating what has happened each time you look at the film. It couldn't work without the game.
