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:

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!

Looks sweeeeeet ! Glad to see the work on KoTS is ongoing and to a very high standard it seems.
Can't wait ( but will ).

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.

Another conspirator checking in!

Clouds are excellent.
