Indeed that does look incredible awesome. Any way to paint the helmet gray? Or is there any way to paint the pilot model at all?

On some aircraft the bort numbers get completely enlightened with the new lightning engine. However I don't think this issue occurs with the 29.

Looking good already! :thumbup:

I think there is no need to pay any attention to those people that think they could ram their "opinions" in a rude and disrespectful way to you or the developers or anyone. Because nobody gains anything with that except the trolling people which get satisfied by that or those people that just want to express their thinkings how they like it. And I think that is the big problem that some people haven't heard anything about constructive criticism or WIP images/videos. Main thing is to share their opinions first of all without thinking. I for myself really appreciate it if we are allowed to get an insight of the progress that developers achieve even though there are people that argue all over it.

A post by ralfidude on hoggit sharing his opinion on the editing regarding their WIP videos led RAZBAM to their "answer" if that really is what they were answering to. I think it's well worth sharing that information as well.

Von btd wurde so gerade eben ein Teaser Soundtrack für die F/A-18C veröffentlicht. Hört sich nach etwas beeindruckendes an. :D

Anyone remember those landing gear light steps lightning up the runway in previous DCS versions which had an incredible awful look? With the new lightning engine it looks a lot better now. One more immersion killer removed.

I don't fly the OpenBeta that often but I think there was an option to lower the helmet visor in the Mirage. Once you put your visor down the screen gets darker. However that effect is not implemented within 2.1 or other aircraft. And remember it's an Alpha. Things or improvements such as the new lightning engine are still going to be tweaked, it is not finished yet so expect changes with coming future updates to improve performance and readability of the HUD.

If you want to know who creates the music for DCS...

So I adjusted all the graphic settings from scratch. I started with low settings and made my way up to high settings. I noticed MSAA is the true FPS killer for me with my GTX960 2GB and i5 4590. Except MSAA at 2x, flat terrain shadows with a resolution of 1920x1080 everything else is set to high. Now I reach up from 45 to almost 50 FPS far out Las Vegas. Over Las Vegas my FPS are jumping from 30 to 40 FPS. With MSAA set to it's maximum I noticed my frames drop lower than 25 over Las Vegas.

If you are able to wait from the official announcement that Normandy is being developed till it's official EA release, I'm sure you guys can wait one or two more hours to finally download it. It's depending on the servers not on your DCS installation.

Oh it does work in Germany as well. I'm downloading right now.

Desweiteren sollen Vorbestellungen ihre Module sogar noch vor dem offizielem Release erhalten wenn ich das richtig gelesen habe.

I also hope that this boring, odd, one color scheme at midday will look different and more realistic with the new lightning engine. Something I noticed when zooming in, the terrain looks awful to look at especially the mountains. However I guess this won't be resolved with a new lightning engine. I think this image has been taken somewhere around midday. It's from the ED website.

There were already small additions to the Su-33 flight model such as the Cobra maneuver. I don't know how someone can lose faith if it is noticeable that they are defenitaly working on it.

I think thats the Loading Screen when flying the Su-33.

Impressive that these new lighting effects are still WIP. It already looks so incredibly well made and realistic.
