Yes Smokey, TFS need to first work simple things to stop the "one plane explodes and one plane goes away', not a lot of work needed. After this, other things maybe have bigger priority, like weather, water, etc.Smokejumper wrote:Nice work Lobo. I have concerns about this after the constant thread locking. I'm concerned TF will end up being a mimic in behaviour of the old BOS staff pre Jason. I'm a TF and Cliffs fanboi...... I also have aluminium skin experience from Airstreams and I'd love to see bent aircraft for example. The collision model in Cliffs is terrible. While TF staff in part may not think it's a big deal it has in fact always been a big deal but we ignored it because there wasn't anything better.
BOS is starting to look good and I've heard positive things about the recent FM change and there is no disputing that the DCS flight models are great. We are starting to have real options so these no big deal things are ones we don't have to ignore any more. The opening shot of the Ruskie hitting the trees and going in are way better than Cliffs. I've landed many an aircraft with one wing missing.
I shot down a one wing Spit just yesterday on Kanalkamph...... He rammed a bomber and was on his way home so I shot up his other wing. That is a big deal.......
Soft body, like BeamNG, will be hard to do, need to rework all DM. It's beautiful and the future, but at least CloD deserves a reliable rigid body dynamics behaviour. I think this will be made soon.
