Hi everybody!

Six weeks after the last release, I'm proud to announce Thunder&Lightning 070827. Major news for this version:

  • New Multi Function Display (MFD) modes (toggle with the TAB key):
    • A target view that displays a camera image of and distance to the currently selected target.
    • A missile view that displays images from the tip of the last recently fired missile. Good for spying and often quite spectacular.
  • Decoy flares that distract incoming missiles from their target. Beware, your enemies have them too! This completely changes the rules when engaging enemy aircraft.
  • Tanks and the carrier turret fire much more precisely now and have become really dangerous to aircraft.
  • Some new graphical sugar, like lens flares for missiles and decoys and new smoke effects
  • Performance enhancements in the AI scripts make a greater number of enemies possible
  • Your mission has been made slightly more challenging
  • Several bug fixes, including one in the pixel shader of the water rendering that caused ugly artefacts on NVidia hardware

You can download the autopackage or install from source. Got a problem: Share it with the world at the forum .
