For the birds
There's a bit of a dipsy doodle over at Avsim over the idea of implementing birds as part of The Flight Simulator X worldspace. Steve Lacey has covered that to some degree here. (be sure and read the comments)
The upshot is about the tension between Fligt Sim as a game or as a real world simulator. I tend to think it can/should be both.
Anyway, I came across the links below via our Environment Art Lead John Smith, and thought it was neat.
The site's link is here: https://www.wwt.org.uk/flamingo/
The cool videos of birds in flight are here...
Movie 1 : Movie 3
