Comprising 8 missions, the campaign will follow No. 610 SQN as it faces the first week of the Luftwaffe offensive against Kent, with most missions based on real events and timelines.

Some history on 610 Squadron:

610 Squadron of the Royal Air Force was a Squadron of the Auxiliary Air Force.

Comprising very high quality pilots, often ex-RAF officers and occasionally locally based company Test pilots from companies such as de Havilland and Airwork.

The Luftwaffe has their work cut our for them taking on these pilots!

Our mission builder is putting the finishing touches on what will be a very exciting and challenging campaign.

We will announce it's release date soon.

Regards,

TFS Team

WIP improvements to the Spitfire. Not final product.

New sound is built from the ground up harnessing features from FMOD 5, and includes new load effects designed to work in unison with the game driven data as well as new samples at the correct pitch.

The beauty of the loading effects are that when the throttle is pulled back to midrange, the melodious engine effect will be present and in the case of the Merlin's at the correct pitch. It will likely be more noticeable in the finished event.

This new engine sound really provides the sense of the clatter of these enormous engines, with the all the valves and pistons working away.

Let us know what you think.

Hi All,

Following on from our recent screenshots of the work going into making the Spitfire cockpit VR ready, the left side is now complete. The right side is now being upgraded, and we will share pics of that work soon.






Our sound engineer is also working on improvements to a number of areas. Whilst not complete at this time, the famous Spitfire Merlin has never sounded better!

We hope to show a WIP of these changes soon.

Regards,

TFS team
