Does this look familiar? Crimson skies obviously stole their designs from engenious German Designers. SHAME ON YOU FASA!! HOW DARE YOU!!

Comparison, 3 ways from Luft46', renderings from crimsonskies.org




Shame, shame, shame.

Actually, I have to give credit to them... who else better to rip off than insane German engeniers? And in what other game can you fly these bizzare German machines in....? NONE. But they still ripped them off, LoL!

Aladar, if you've given up on the wreckage left after the 110 crash, that bird at the top looks kinda fun!

Hey,

Are those screens cinimatics or in-game shots?

If they're in-game shots, what was used hartdware-wise to render them? They're beautiful!

OH, BTW WT, that first canard looks really sweet. It get's my vote.

Actually those are neither. Scenematics are used both rendered and in-game. Here is a screen shot. Be warned though, this game can be very buggy, but its funner than HELL!! Big files, may take a while, but worth it.

Thought I'd dig up an old topic, but has anyone noticed how the Balmoral "closely resembles" ie "is almost exactly the same as" a Beaufort (or Fighter)?! And it's made by Bristol. Fasa really have lost all ingenuity.

I wish CS had a Realistic flight model option though

Ooh I've also spotted a flaw in one of the aircraft. It's hard to describe but I'll hve a go...

The aircraft that looks like the P-38, I think it's the Peacemaker, has an elevator behind the cockpit. You know what a P38 Lightning looks like so you should be able to understand. Now. This elevator actually moves at the same time as the one on the tailplane. Unfortunately this is as realistic as.... an unrealistic thing because if my aerodynamics are right, this forward elevator would hinder the performance of the aircraft. If the pilot were to push the stick forward, the elevators would all move down, providing MORE LIFT and raising the tail. BUT also raising the cockpit section (the forward elevator is in line with the trailing edge o the wing of course) because the same principles of flight are operating. If anyone knows what I mean, and can explain this in a slightly better way, please do.

I am disgusted by this pathetic flight model that scientifically spoils a game that... was.. never.... scientific...

RASAR OUT for the LOVE of GoD!
