I'd like this changed aswell. Like, double the distance the shadows on aircraft are rendered. It's especially noticable on the engine air intakes.

From the mission editor!

I have made this function for a Reaper orbiting targets with Moose. Orbit task and a scheduler is basically it.

When the F/A-18 is completed, and if there ever is a F/A-18 HOTAS it will (for me) be a serious competitor to the A-10C. Until then though, Hog Life.

This has been around for like a year.

To avoid confusion I'm making a new topic on this. The flood lights in the A-10C does not work properly. They give no illumination inside the cockpitand are completely useless in their current state.

Gone on the A-10C too.

I made a quick and dirty version by combining the smoke effects from Kukys code with a new version of FireEffects.lua. FireVehicle.lua

The vehicle smoke effect seems to cancel out the light generated from fire introduced some time ago. I'd love to se an updated version!

Flood Lights are still broken.

Dynamic weather is great and advanced. But does anyone of you have any good, interesting and varying dynamic weather that doesn’t feature storm like wind speeds? If so, please share a miz file with it!

Agreed. More varying weather would make just simple flying much more enjoyable, and combat that much more complex and challanging.

I use eclipse LDT with Moose. It shows lua syntax errors aswell.

Oh hey, thanks! There is an update coming that features ability to request tasking from ground units current position (so you can stay in the same area for longer while the ground units proceed to the next enemy group), along with loads of new little enhancements. The workflow is so different that maybe I’ll release it under a new name.

Welcome back man! I know the 476th recently opened their recruiting.

I get errors using cmd. Says something about not finding the exe or some such. Sorry for my unscientific reply.

Thanks feef! Are those reports available somewhere? I couldn’t find anything. Though I am not a search-fu master, so they are probably right infront of me.

Greetings! I'm noticing some weird behaviour on the A-10C TGP in IR mode. There seems to be some kind of filter that is limiting the terrain IR signature, thus making vehicles stand out more. But this filter is acting weird when I'm looking at it. Here is a video of what I'm seeing: c1KsDT85g3w The filter keeps reacting to my position/zoom at no real set value, so it's moving in and out and around like this depending on where I'm placed and my TGP zoom. I recently got a new PC (i5 8600K, GTX 1080, 16GB ram) and didn't notice this effect on my old system (old i7, GTX 870M, 16 GB ram). I haven't used that one since the first 2.5 version though. Is there some setting I'm missing? Is anyone else seeing this? I have the latest graphics drivers. This is on the 2.5.1 OpenBeta.

Is cockpit lighting also beeing worked on? Floodlights currently do very little.

You flew the A-10 at night? You are braver than I thought, seeing as the Current State of DCS has such poor cockpit lights.

I started playing DCS five years ago. Since I started I’ve put over 1000 hours/year into it and I only play the A-10C. What I do in it is play an open ended SP CAS mission with random elements. Still after all these years and all this time I’m far from getting bored. It is my little slice of heaven. I might try the F/A-18 when it’s feature complete and well into release, but honestly until then I’m not interested.

The snow color in DCS is not neutral white (in DCS daylight). It’s ”cold white” aka with a bit of blue tint to it (google white balance for more on that). Also, green is the color the human eye sees most nuances in (fun fact: that’s why NVGs display green tones) so it will be one of the colors that are easiest to see in color mixes and tones. It should of course not be exaggerated, so a thorough monitor color callibration should fix it.

I’m also happy with how it is now. I think people don’t understand how colors mix. Yellow (tint) + blue (sky) = green. DCS also has a bit of blue haze, contributing to the perception of green tint. Also, monitor callibration plays in. I have a color callibrated monitor and the way it is now is great.

Thanks guys. 8600K it is.

So I’m building a new PC for DCS. When choosing processor, is there any big advantage in DCS in choosing an i7 8700K over an i5 8600K? Is the performance difference in direct relation to the price difference?
