There are many things to be done that WILL be done to improve realism apart from just putting some crppy lines on the slope that nobody needs.
To be more precise: as to me, those lines would diminish the joy after a long flight - as we all know, the longer we land beyond the last line, usually the longer the jump seems to be. Jumping 1 m over the last line wouldn't be as exciting as realizing that I've just jumped 11 meters over the HS point, which is the last marked line apart from the moving ones, representing personal and global records.
I hope it will persuade Jussi Koskela to refrain from doing so. i.e. implementing the additional lines.

how about braking with skis in parallel position

I have (good?) idea.
On the menu of creating the competitor it is possible to write some colourful inscriptions on skis and entire equipment.
No on beta 2, maybe in beta 3?
Sorry for my English.

That would require much more from the AI. Parallel braking is much more difficult in terms of balance.

parrarel braking... I think it would be fun for 10 minutes... Than I wouldent bother watching... I skip to the next jump as soon as possible so I rarely watch the braking part. And I think that goes for the majority of people

so no real need I think

What date did you have? In north the sun gives some light during the whole night in summer time. Also if you set high turbidity, the light will scatter more.
The shadow is always somewhere below the ski jumper on purpose. Otherwise it would be too difficult to estimate the time to land.

Jussi, necessarily "mirror images" of F1 and F2 camera !!! Note that the vast majority of television shows jumping from a camera on the left side of the hill ! Besides, think about left-handed players. Please

I'll probably include it as an option.
I have tried it earlier and it felt totally crazy after thousands of jumps from left to right. There might also be some obstacles blocking the view (e.g. light poles).
