  1. Just as an update to this...I found certain ground vehicles are also missing shadows. Notice the vehicle in the front and the player A-10 aircraft here. It is very random. I was trying the Su25T target practice mission. Now with improved visibility ... it is so much better than using labels. Fantastic...but the lack of shadows from the vehicles makes it extremely difficult to pick it out from the ground flat texture. I even made a rocket run against a black texture on the ground thinking it was a vehicle. lol

  2. Damn ED...the EDGE engine is fantastic. I love the bokeh version of the DOF. Looks so beautiful. Perfect screenshot galore. Very nicely done with the smoke/flares etc. The Mig 29 cockpit is fantastic. A few bugs/crashes but all in all....great job. Can't be easy adaptng your huge code base to a totally new platform.

  3. found this nice video i hope that they cam implemented in World 2 at least

    OMG!! If DCS had these..I would be ecstatic. Imagine fluid effects of smoke and fire like that.... Just like how we see explosions and smoke get affected by wind etc. that would be so cool.

     

    ED have truly made something special with the missile smoke in EDGE. I couldn't imagine anything better. Has the nice dynamic fluid motion...the dispersion that I can see in most RL videos. Really looking forward to see where they take the special fx.

  4. Thanks Witchking ;)

     

    If it's that way too popular dust/dirt optical effect:

    I'm also glad it's an option.

     

    np. man... BF3/4 are way overdone with the lens effects. But I think the little bit of dust in ED's screenshots was kinda nice. I will personaly play with it + DOF on.. :P :smartass: as I am a bit of a graphics freak. :p

     

    here is an example of ED's. I guess it would include the lens flare as well. :p

  5. - what is that lens effect feature? Is it a chromatic aberration effect or a lens flare effect? Something different?

    .

     

    It is a dust effect which was visible in some of the early screenshots. It probably is more for the "gamers" / "media content creators" among us. There was some backlash about it...but I am glad ED are leaving it in as an option.

  6. Congrats ED for this huge step forwards. :thumbup: Good job!

     

    Thanks to the developers, 3rd party teams, testers and all the other staff bringing us the greatest - and best looking - sim on earth.

    Keep up the fantastic work, guys! :)

     

    LMAO! aaah..... good times when I was still a kid....love that show. :D

  7. thanks for the update ! cant wait..

    question: there was once mentioned that 1.5/2.0 will have new grass / updated grass effect ... has this been abandoned or still planned ?? lookd so good on that preview pic ..

    I think its still being tweaked/examined for DCS 2.0. Still work in progress. This is the big first step...getting the engine integrated with a public (although beta) release of EDGE. :D

  8. How detailed is the RADAR implementation going to be? Is it going to be modelled in exhaustive detail? or is it more the FC3 level ?

     

    In general...Looking good...but there is a few things (maybe I have just been spoilt by ED's / leatherneck / BST level of attention to detail). But when the Radar screen and HUD is turned on...it seems very "game-like"...immediate turn on... Look at ED's aircraft...even the Su-25T..the HUD fades in....the tape rotates to correct position. The Ka50 ABRIS has a startup procedure...not just direct to the screen. I am assuming the Mirage has a similar startup sequence/ animation? Also graphically...can't pinpoint it..but the combiner/the HUD black/grey metal piece under the hud..looks too cartoony..blocky. Might just need a bit of weathering like the sides of the cockpit. But I am sure its part of the WIP status. Looking forward to this aircraft. Finally...a totally new modern jet fighter to fly around in. :)
