New KOTS cloud rendering - 06/05/08 07:46 PM

Hi Guys,

As VikS has mentioned, the previous versions of the clouds seen in preview screenshots and videos were very much "works in progress". Today we have a view of the new clouds now in Knight Of The Sky (plus a little terrain peek between them).

Sweet!

Looks great! Although this will hopefully be the new benchmark for flightsim clouds:

But it looks pretty close what you've got there \:\)

Powdery clouds lovely ta VikS!

Looks like Guildford twinned with Ypres from this angle

Dave, it's so obvious that you uploaded a photo to deceive us. Everyone knows KOTS is just a delusion of 15 forum dwellers' deranged imaginations. ;\)

Nice update. Can't wait to skulk around those clouds looking for unsuspecting observation planes.

S!

Very very impressive. Hope you can hide behind them to stalk the enemy. \:\)

The clouds are very nice, and the 2 planes fighting in the distant background are even nicer \:\)

Nice one Laser! \:D

You missed the one on the right lurking in the clouds.......

(watch as everyone squints closer at their monitors)

Btw, what's our current forum dwellers' count? We might be bordering on conspiracy levels by now.

Those are the best clouds I've ever seen in a simulator. In fact, I think I might have mistaken that for a photograph if I hadn't known better.

Clouds are excellent.

Clouds and terrain are looking very nice, very pleasing color palette too.

Reminds me of many on-line experiences. " Don't worry Chivas, you'll see them when they start shooting you. "

Looks great. Impressive terrain as well by the looks of things.

Nice work GT (or whatever we've got to call them now)

As I'm soaking up the drool on my keyboard, I'm thinking that this is the sim I'm more excited about than anything being worked on, right now.

LOL, you guys are a riot!

Well that's a mystery too (I think).

My wife treats it like it's the other women too.
