It's nice to hear about the "human-ness" of the process, and to hear from somebody else's perspective other than Austin's.

Just out of curiosity, will the clouds and/or environment effects (rain/snow) be able to pick up lighting as a function of the new global illumination, such as landing lights, strobes, beacons or nav lights when flying in IMC, especially at night?

Cheers,
Jim

Seriously, it sounds great, can't wait.

(as long as toon-rendering is not an option, that is…)

cheers

Heck, PRE-alpha.

So… before Christmas? First half of '11? Before the next Olympics? This decade?

Just checking
