Wings of Prey full version: Clouds not S-3D compatible Recommendation: hold off
Just some update for flightsim nuts, the game is UNPLAYABLE in S-3D. I've bought the Steam version and have tried with all setting combos. No go. The clouds overlap with the airplanes making the game look like a bunch of jumble, especially the outside view. I also saw large dark band disrupting the graphics @ the horizon, not sure what caused it, this band takes up to 1/4 of the screen obscuring and jarring visually, making the experience even more unpleasant.

I thought the full version might have some settings that can be turned off to make the game work in S-3D but I was disappointed fully. Within an hour of having bought it from Steam, I had to "shelved" it. I do hope they will fix it eventually but as of now, S-3D gamers need not apply.

Sorry can't tell you because I didn't play the thing in 2D at all.

I have it and play it in 2D, it's lots of fun. Why don't you just download the demo and try it?

Can you post a picture of what it looks like in 3d?

Sorry I've already unintalled the damn thing. You might want to download the demo from Steam.

It's a real shame... This game has [b]so much [/b]potential to look really good in S3D. When you look at the ground, it's quite realistic looking but the clouds that are rendered at screen depth just ruin it.

I'd be great if they could come out with a patch to let us disable clouds or something...

You should - if haven't yet - add your voice to the Wings of Prey fora @ Simhq.com, and yuplay.com, even if they're already aware of the problem. It will definitely help for our 'cause' of getting a patch or not.
