I am going to need a list of what is new with this B-17 over the WOP set with the B-17 in it. I am able to enhance the FS2004 to FSX specs so what is really new.

Do you have views at all the stations ? Bombadier, Navigator, Top Turret, Bottom Turret, Waist and Tail guns ? How about the Radio room ?

And I mean a real specific list. I'm at a lost why you are charging so much for this ?? You first one was spectacular and would easily fit into FSX.

Regards

Just a quick list....

New lighting
New cockpit
New exterior model
Specular lighting
Bump mapping
New FSX reflective surfaces
Better VC controllability
Bent props when belly landing
One gear landings available

There is a LOT more, but that is a quick list off the top of my head.

You wouldn't be able to accomplish what was done in this aircraft without completely making a new model. :)

Main difference is that this one is in HI-RES.
Both, the textures and 3D model are upgraded: five main external textures sheets against the two in the 'old', FS9 model and higher polycount.

The other 'better' stuff, like bumps and specs maps etc., is just a consequence of being the dedicated FSX production.

Jib,

Just take a look at the screenshots. We have probably twice the man-hours in the Wings of POWER II: B17 than the former one. As beautiful as the original is, there is really no comparison between the two.

Scott.
