Special Effects I'd really like to see
« on: May 29, 2000, 06:40:00 AM »
 Like in Jane's WW2 Fighter's, I'd like to see oil on cockpit windscreen blocking the forward view if your engine takes a hit.

Also glass damage to canopy when rounds have passed thru cockpit.

And last but not least blood splats on inside of cockpit canopy when pilot wounded to also degrade visibilty.

How about when a pilot is killed, his plane doesn't just vanish?  He goes back to the tower, but his plane keeps going until it crashes.  Maybe give it a different colored icon to indicate the pilot has expired?

Same for when bailing out.  I bailed out yesterday and started looking around for my plane but I couldn't find it.  Where the heck did it go?  

And finally, the parachutist figure is clearly holding an M1 Carbine.  Let's put some bullets in the dang thing!

BTW I DO get oil on my windscreen in this game.  It doesn't stick to the windscreen but it does come right over the windscreen and partially obscure vision.

LOL!!! I SHIVER WHEN I IMAGINE THE SITUATION!!!      

The F4U1-C falls in flames, the pilot bails for safety...he sees the chute over him and breaths...he is safe...

he is? really?...with terror in his eyes he sees the mighty Fw190A8 that destroyed his plane coming back. At once he gets his Carbine up and the HO is setup!!!!.

(sound of blood and bullets hitting the chute's body)

Hmm that gives me an idea.  Can we get an Al Gore texture map on the chute guy?

Realistic engine sounds.

Engines rotate at a constant speed (the RPM setting = frequency of sound produced).

They get LOUDER when you give it more throttle, quieter when you throttle back as the constant speed props adjust to put a load on or unload the engine.

Changing the RPM setting should change the frequency of the sound.

This would be very nice.  Just remove the icon and treat it as a bomb, complete with a crater and damage if it hits anything.  With the Zeke coming we need to be able to do kamikaze damage
