Agreed, great piece of work. Ok, there were a few too many very fast
multiple cuts in action sequences, but a great movie. What I can't work
out is how he got such a long movie under 50Mb with such high quality!
Maybe all that sea & sky helps compression.

Actually all that sea & sky is what saw me shelve PF fairly quickly. Lomac
has spoiled me, I like trees too much :) Still, the carrier landings kept
me entertained for a while.

LOMAC does have really pretty ground textures, doesn't it? I wish that we
could get that kind of detail into IL2-FB. IL2 seems very sparse sometimes.

Yes but LOMAC is a dog. IL2 runs even on a low end machine. Perhaps that
is the reason.

Only thing that bothers me about the video is how some schmuck used a
classic Led Zeppelin tune and turned it into a rap song. Is nothing sacred
anymore?

Nice film. Would have preferred seeing a few more Japs shot down though
<g>

On a related note, currently reading a very good book on the actual air
war in the South Pacific. "Fire In The Sky". I've read other works by the
author; he's one of the best imo.

never heard of them <g>

Rats. Can't watch it. For some reason WMP tries to connect instead
of IE downloading it and it gets stuck at "connecting".

There must be some Japanese rap songs, no? I mean, I thought I was
watching a Pearl Harbor video on the History Channel or War Stories!
I think I saw only one Zero get shot down.

Please dont misinterpret my feelings about the IL2 high altitude model and
my overall high praise of this title. I still LOVE PF and the trackIR has
made it into a whole "new ballgame". Id still like to be able to go to a
respectable altitude though.

Since you mentioned it...........

Zeppelin.......Cadillac..... is it just me, or is there just something
basically wrong with that?

`Course, I have heard Pink Floydd used as bumper music on the Weather

We all know that without a fully dynamic campaign there's not a chance in
hell of you ever buying PF Nats, so you needn't pretend otherwise.
Although I wish that the torpedo bombers had been included its not a
gamebreaker that they are not there.
