Hello Gofo, hello Deutschmark,

I really appreciate your work on the Ju-188. This aircraft has been sorely missing from IL-2 so far and would be great to have in the game. I do have a question, though. Please don't take this as nagging or de-constructive criticism. I am sure that you have looked at more photos and technical drawings of Ju-188s than I ever will, but it seems to me that in historical photos of the Ju-188, the glass of the canopy and the bottom of the forward section of the aircraft are much more rounded than in your models.

Please see here, second picture from the top.

Is this just a difference in perception, or is it because of limitations in the 3-d modeling software (polygon count)?

Best Regards,

RB

Salute ALL hi :wink:



For me it was polygon count for IL2 if I was to make the
Under side more rounded it could add up to another 1000
Polygons or more as I did do it that way to start with so
It less rounded much like the wings leading edge for better FPS.

Well, if we are honest it is a little more than just restrains by the polycount. There are some obvious faults, the landing gear for example is way too flimsy.

I can only recommend to work in scale, using known elements, say the size of the tires, as reference points.
