Update: I flashed my bios and left default settings, still have them. AMD SAM and XMP now off, wont go away. i dont see shadows like this in other peoples videos. If i reinstall windows, AND DCS, to find it still is happening im not going to be happy..... there is another person having the same issue....

Here is another log that doesnt fail the integrity check, i was messing with shadows and taa to make that go away to no avail. Still happens. dcs.log

I have an AMD build. Asrock b550 7700xt 5800x3d Shadows look terrible, If i set them to low, they shimmer all over the place with jagged edges, and I get massive light artifacts. As I set them higher, the Shadows look better, but then I get really fast moving light artifacts around the cockpit, and the shadows under small edges around the hud/ufc in my f-18, look jagged. I tried forcing the options to have ultra shadows, this makes the artifacts even smaller, but they move even faster.... I dont get it, i tried turning on and off multiple settings, SSS SSAO Secondary Shadows Global Cockpit Illumination MSAA off, x2, and x4, even forced it to x8 to see what happened in Adrenaline, tried messing with AA settings it doesnt do anything at all. tessellation at 16x and application drivers. 24.12.1 25.1.1-25.6.3 ALL of them it doesn't go away. (literaly like 10 drivers...) When i tried FSR and TAA it made this effect unnoticable, but using FSR and TAA is impossible because any kind of movement makes planes COMPLETELY INVISIBLE.... Somebody please help me fix this.... Or have the shadows in game always been this crappy????? If not fixable, how can i minimize it? It happens the most when the Sun is directly above me. Below is a clip, hopefully its clear enough for everyone to see. I also posted my Options.lua and DCS.log unknown_2025.07.28-05.03_clip_1.mp4 options.lua dcs.log

For AMD users 25.6.1 Anti aliasing is broken. I reverted to 25.4.1 it fixed AA, but now with MSAA on 4x, shadows look trashier, i tried forcing thier quality to ultra in options.lua, it made it somewhat better but not enough. with FSR and TAA on shadows look immensely better, but I get ghosting in WVR and external views when teh camera is moving too fast, and this is unacceptable. Currently I am experincing what the OP mentions, terrible looking shadows on dials and edges in the cockpit, especially when the sun is directly above me. I am going to try a few different drivers now and see what happens

Give us customizable instrument panels and console panel lights... i now want white to match it all!!!! xD

From a game balance perspective, this plane needs R-77s. You are releasing the 1st 4th gen RED plane, with no ability to BVR at the same level as any BLUE plane which is bogus. AND DO NOT give me the plane cant equip them. Russian Mig29As cant equip them. Export variants can. It irks my nerves almost as much as the fact, the only mid range SAM for BLUE is the HAWK.... Can we please try to add things to the game in a way that balances the sides??? I NEVER see this. If one side gets an apple so should the other. Usually in History, thats usually how it works. We got the AIM-120 in 1991 and they made the R-77 in 1994. And here we are getting a mig 29, that people have been waiting longer for, than it took for russia to produce and use r-77s after we released the aim-120 irl

heres a funny trick for the vanilla SA5 u can set up 8 SRs and fix the issue as well lol

mine wasnt doing that, i have sams randomly do this crap all the time, not just this one. Did u try my fix for it? the code was older, and changed since he made the mod. i also cant open ur mission what map is it on

Thats very close to Wadi Al Khirr that right triangle. The pins you have are like right up on Nukayb and Mudasis

That survey is only known locations remember that. Iraq had hundereds of SAMs, EWRS, and thousands of AAA. I find it VERY hard to believe they only had 16 SA-8s and 20 roland. Sam site maps show more/less locations than revealed on the survey. 15 ACTIVE SA-2? I call total BS, its not enough for what they actually had. That survey also contradicts a lot of other sources about the condition of the Kari IADS post Gulf war. Ive been spending a lot of time on google, reading and such. Alot of what was, will never be known, and only what people have actually found is what is. Somebody posted in the tac dcs discord images from a mission against H3, and theres probably 7 or more SA6 sites around H3, was 5 around just the middle lol, and SA8 and Rolands contradict. You will NEVER get it exact, and my mentality with it is very.... OCDish, so in order to even come close to thinking about making a mission id like to make, I have kind of took knowledge from all sources, and placed things in a way that more than likely made the iads BETTER, vs being worse, like most sources claim. While trying to maintain integrity of the key defense areas. Generally, SA-2s, Sa-3s protect cities and infrastructure. While SA-6s and Rolands seem to protect key military facilities like airbases. Designing the area around bagdhad was a total bitch. too many buildings. I had to make zones, to delete scenery that were big enough to fit the sites to spawn in, or if i had options, they were on clear ground. IMO having static sites makes the mission boring, I try to have them atleast move around in the zone they spawn in per restart. Like other guy said, im dying for southern part of the map too. Alot of the fun happens there. Im working on a scenario in the timeline of 1997. Its gonna be baller. This was a cool thread too, helps add to my knwledge base on Saddams infrastructure, something that was too tediious for me right now to dig into lol Also here... https://climateviewer.org/history-and-science/government/maps/surface-to-air-missile-sites-worldwide/

Yes, i already told Whiskey in a Discord DM to fix this. Open the S-200 Launcher.lua, find this line... GT.attribute = {wsType_Ground,wsType_SAM,wsType_Miss, SA3_LN, and make it this... GT.attribute = {wsType_Ground,wsType_SAM,wsType_Miss, I got it to launch the second anything enters the red ring using a P-14, 2 luanchers, and a STR

He is back!!! stoked to see this reveal.... Ive had my fingers crossed for a few things that could end up being on your radar at some point

Not just one base, do all of pakistan. The game is severely lacking areas of potential Chinese involvement, and this is one of them, Pakistans entire air defence consists of chinese sams and planes, additionally, if power were to sway in the wrong direction in Afghanistan, China might, like the US, have to occupy it themselves at some point int he future as it is on its own borders.....

YES this is happening and its very annoying. everything flickers. Carrier crew, and payloads. Tried turing options on and off. no sharpening no fog, no dust storm, and i cant figure out why unknown_2025.01.18-19.14_clip_1.mp4
