NRG-Vampire

fracturing of the community ??? all the modules: all the different maps, all the flyable aircrafts are fracturing the community - if i follow your thread/uptake dont be blind, you have got more choices what, how and where to "play" and i does not want to repeat myself but fortunately this REALLY fracturing plan wont be happen: "dont forget, RRG-Ilya wanted to realize this DCS-Normandy project as a completely seperated program in 2014"

honestly, i dont see where the problem is this is all up to the mission designer and to the 3D models what he wants to use in the mission if the mission designer did not put any currently available official objects into that mission (M1 or T-72 tanks) then you wont see these models in the mission. this is sure-fire moreover: today if you made a mission with/used community-made-mod-models (tanks, ships, structures etc.) and you host this mission online then clients who does not "installed" the same mods and its models wont see these in the mission too, or wont be able to join to the mission this asset pack will be the "mods-addons" implementation and the 3D models this is how simple: if you "installed" the asset pack you will see the models, otherwise wont. if you "installed" the map you will see the map, otherwise wont ED offered 4 choices: 1. buy nothing 2. buy only the map ---(will be good for (currently available in the ME) modern vehicles and aircrafts as well) 3. buy only the asset pack --- ( "mods-addons" implementation and the 3D models will be usable on other maps as well and vehicles will be drive-able by Combined Arms module, hopefully, if i understand it correctly) 4. buy both the map and the asset pack

pretty sure he forgets often that fact coz he uses almost always the tester version nightly - and not the release-beta-alpha versions perhaps - what all the WIP maps already have merged in it :P Caucasus-Black Sea, Hormuz, plus the "surprise" map(s) :D while being in a Hornet pit above :joystick::pilotfly:

by the way: how detailed will be the 11 new asset-pack-aricraft 3D models ? will be the same elaboration as the B-17 model ? some WIP screenshots of the models would be nice (at least in this friday newsletter) and 1 more wish. i dont wanna be a voracious person but next to that new Ju-88 3D model in the asset pack would be nice to get the also famous and remarkable Ju-87, Bf-110 and He-111 3D AI models too

Bundle pack : Normandy map + Asset Pack...for $48 till end of April Pre-purchase will start this Friday, hopefully :smartass:

and dont forget guys, RRG-Ilya wanted to realize this DCS-Normandy project as a completely seperated program in 2014 thanks to God (and to ED) things and plans have changed since that time. this is how great when everything is subject to change :D who paid $20 or more 3 years ago will get not only flyable aircrafts and the map but some nice and new 3D models as well now in May we will be able to use modern vehicles and aircrafts over this Normandy map too so who want to buy the map only won't get bored for sure however i think that asset pack will worth that price. we had some conversations and polls about this "paid 3D models" few years ago and i am happy now how we are getting the opportunity to expand the numbers of the detailed 3D models of DCSW (what we will able to use by Combined Arms too, hopefully) full price $30 is not so high for 30-40 detailed 3D models, especially for 10 new aircrafts :bounce:

never say never :D takin' and uploadin' few screenshots needs few seconds only :D same with a laptop while travelin' :P

yeah. maybe. would be nice. but it's up to Wags :director::bye: perhaps on mudspike tomorrow

those are the shallow angle reflection effects on the 3D models bluish coz the reflection shows/reflects the blue sky

▲ bingo :thumbup: (traffic is map related currently)

probably :D grass color means nothing coz texture color of the superficial layer (farmlands/fields here) influences the grass color above and in other seasons not only the grass color should change but the color of the whole vegetation (trees mainly)

those are flipped normals Blaze. nothing more. only a piece of cake "problem" :D

well, i did not want to sound like a firm. :) i have ONLY hopes, just like others so, what i see: the "firm" focuses on a lot of other things than making that detailed B-17 model human-flyable. currently. we got it. but i hope :yes: - and a lot of people as well, as i read their replies everywhere: on these forum pages, simhq, mudspike, facebook etc. - ED will have notions and plans and will be wise enough (in the "distant?" future) to making this old and not classified bird flyable... (unlikely with the same detailed Su-24, Tu-22 or MiG-31 model what left/put among "AI only" - what are probably already flyable for other "firms" who ordered that "function" oustside of DCSW) ...after the "firm" finished Normandy, Caucasus-Black Sea, SOH maps, and F/A-18C, P-47D, Me.262A1 ACs. it could be a profitable business decision imho, :music_whistling: a cash cow, coz i believe thousands of customers are waiting for to post replies with following text/gif: shut up and take my money :rotflmao: pretty sure it wont be happening this year or in the next, but maybe after that it will be on the top of the priority list :thumbsup: :D while everybody knows: everything is subject to change :hehe:

▲ Exactly what you wrote Sith. I used other words only :D

▲ momentarily :smilewink: (for the Normandy map)

at least an AI F-16 3D model would be great. beside the new AI Tu-22, MiG-31, Su-24 etc.

nice work :thumbup:

▲ exactly i thought the earlier fan movie is/was the best ( ) what i am still loving to watch frequently on a 4K 55" TV very loudly :D but i believe this "DCS World Fan Movie 2" is better in certain aspects :thumbsup: nice job

crystalballing ??? i dont think this is difficult like that :D so if you are asking the merged (v.2.5?) version for Nevada, Normandy and for the new Caucasus/Black Sea map herez my 2 cents merged Nevada+Normandy: this spring (the current/old caucasus map will be spereated as well) the full merged version will come with the new caucasus map: autumn time or around Xmas ;)

no, that's a problem with the Mirage correct 3D models of ED use 3 cross-planes for 1 nav-light spot (and anti-k light spots too) the mirage models use 9 planes for 1 nav-light spot - just like the most of the aircrafts in FSX honestly, i dont know how Razbam did not recognize that problem coz modders already deleted those 6 not necessary planes per spot more than a year ago - what is a perfect solution instead of the dimmed texture "fix" there are few other perfect (and more better) solutions to update that effect but i wont specify those now

:notify: what about Bangladesh ? ;)

LNS AJS37 related skins here or to moderators: please open an AJS37 skin sub-forum above the "normal" threads (under the AH-1W)

:smilewink: terrains like Colorado, Afghanistan, Corsica, Bangladesh etc. will be more popular assuredly :yes:
