JB worked hard on implementing Japanese tactical squadron markings (trials taking place with the Zeroes as we speak), Julien reworked the Yorktown mural according to the latest dives on her wreck, and new see-through materials on the ship skins!

Testing new damage models in Task Force Admiral, courtesy of the work of Reis our collaborator. Ships are now sinking in a more believable fashion as water is now spreading along new rules. Fire is next, then we'll start integrating new ships at a quicker pace!

It's a long weekend in France this week, taking some time off. Until we meet again, a few new screenshots from the Task Force Admiral Beta by our backers Hood Nafeij & Robz. Now TBDs strike home a bit better, and joystick are now supported in dogfight mode!

Task Force Admiral beta still firmly in development, with Midway getting populated, Hornet & others being properly remade, along with much anticipated functions - such as a brand new input menu which will let you re-bind your keys like proper sims do!

Now aircraft have different engine startup times so as to make it look a bit more natural. Sometimes it doesn't take much to give you a good feel. Get your earphones & enjoy the scene. Next stop: adding the small guys!
Big thanks to Hood for the video!

Work goes forward on a number of fronts. Akagi is nearing completion, Midway is getting its vegetation & our helpers are using SoDak as a test bed for tweaking our damage model. A bit of a slow week perhaps, but we had holidays in France ^^

Allow us to introduce our roadmap on our way to the next stage of the beta! The moment we get to Point Luck, everybody will get a new demo - but you can still play the old one until next week. Also, here are a few pics of Akagi getting the usual treatment!

The rebuilding of Midway Is. goes on for #screenshotsaturday in Task Force Admiral. Textures & 3D coexist to provide the place with a feel that has been immortalized by John Ford's team in his Midway reels.
Proper airbases ops & ground attack logic will follow.

We'll soon update the Task Force Admiral demo with a few party-poopers. Betties from 4.Kokutai flying from Rabaul have a personal score to settle with Lexington, and will make sure to punish you with extreme prejudice were you to push your luck too far north...!

New map overlays, surface combat functions & map tools are waiting for you in the upcoming demo! Well, validation is taking its sweet time, but at least it will be a clean demo with a lot of dead bugs squashed along the way.
Cheers & hopefully see you soon

More importantly, the KS might need to be pushed back a few days north of next week due to the time needed to get the demo approved on Steam. Sorry for making you wait a few extra days, but it should be good!

Hard at work all weekend on the manual and on the last few improvements for our #kickstarter demo. Hope we got the old style MPS mood right! Don't mind the text, it's being written as it comes, I'll have it corrected later to proper English!
