"lower flight trajectories"
Jussi are you sure that you write changelog of DSJ4 ?

I was referring mainly to the first part of the flight.
At least my flight trajectories are lower.

Impressive. Thanks.

:O wooooowwwww Reaspect ;D it's really long list

When will the new Hills?

When it's done

Landing System in Online Game to Correct !

Since there is already a style of flight is whether it will be second choice?

Sorry. My english is bad

What about if before the new version there is change log available? We would be able to discuss what's missing but wanted, for example.

I have two compliments about DSJ 4 v1.0.0/v1.0.1
1. The jumper goes to high in the flight phase.
2. Trees, trees.
Now why probably did that happen
1. The physics cant always be sooo perfect
2. The trees would probably add lag or something...

Now about the trees. Look at the picture below:



Than look at DSJ 4 Planica. You will notice much much more hills at Planica. BUT that would probably add lag.

_________________

more trees - yes. You can always lower the number of them in settings if they lag or cover your view

YYYYYEES! I was writing about it for months! TREES ARE NEEDED! IMO, now Planica in DSJ 4 looks very bad...

_________________

you really want trees? thats the thing you'd like first? not AI and more hills but trees? no disrispect or anything but imo trees should be further down the list of things that should be made
