This looks pretty epic, my SSD is ready!

I'm almost always doing cold starts in my own missions, so it's very useful addition, no need to restart the whole thing. If it'll be simple trigger activated action and upon being killed, the game will just let you reload from checkpoint, that will be pretty great. I don't own any campaigns, but understand they are updated regularly. It's likely they'll have this feature implemented soon.

Syria might look good down low, but I up high it's one of the worst IMO. It's good we have these other maps as options, Afghanistan looks absolutely stunning at altitude and pretty great at those handcrafted areas when flying low. I'm not trying to <profanity> on Syria BTW, Ugra has added a lot of content for free, but I wish they would revise the color palette, it's so cartoonish looking, it hurts my eyes. The size is just a price we must pay for realistic textures without repetitive tiling

Not sure that's correct, my map install shows 132gb, just like for people that own both west and east. Purchasing the east shouldn't trigger any other data to download

Thanks for the info, this confirms what I was thinking. I only got west part, because I thought it will be smaller install , guess I'll buy the rest now

Did you get the east part or do you own the whole map? If so, Is your install 132gb?

Unrelated guestion. If I own only west, after purchasing east, do I have to download more data or the east part will only unlock for me?

Cinsiderring latest Afghanistan update, In case I own only west part and deicide to purchase new east part, does it start downloading the textures or are they already downloaded for everyone and purchase just unlocks them?

It would be cool to have dynamic weather in the similar way to the fog, where you could set up heavy clouds to mask lover quality textures, and then trigger activated different weather preset that could slowly morph into lighter clouds.

Thanks for checking. My assumption is not based on any real life data, it's more anecdotal. Playing the same missions I played a month ago, I would have almost 100% success hitting flying helo (Mi-24 set to "no reaction to threat") As soon as LOBL symbology appeared, I would launch and see the missile hit the target from above. Now, it just flies from the side and misses more often - which is what would before the last update happen if launched while LOAL symbology was shown.

I'm not sure what changed but before the last patch, trajectory of LOBL was visibly different, and lima would hit helos from top. Now it flies like LOAL, aproaching from a side and often missing target

Locking moving helicopter with Lima Hellfire works as usual but after the symbology changes from LOAL to LOBL constraints, the trajectory of the missile seems to be the same as LOAL lima_test.trk

Nice work on the fixes, thanks!

Another example, hopefully this gets addressed soon

Improvement for AH-64D flight model, YEEES! it's gonna take a while for me to test this but I'm cautiously optimistic. Very nice fixes in this one, good work ED and merry christmass

I don't think it's gonna take that long, but yea, it's not that fun to fly with the current model. It's got to be one of the hardest parts of every module to tune this. Change one value and it breaks some other thing kinda deal. Hopefully they'll fix this soon, the Apache is almost perfect otherwise.

Is this working as intended? More noticable when flying above the fog, the smoke effect sometimes doesn't blend in. It could use a bit of tweaking Fog set to around 30 000ft visibility, 656ft thickness Same conditions, but no fog. Smoke blends in more naturaly here

Thats strange, I assumed it had somenthing to do with upscaling, both in game via DLSS or in the control panel with NIS, since setting MSAA initially solved it. Maybe I just got lucky but I haven't seen any flickering since.

In case you have a flickering fog, make sure you don't have NIS on (nvidia image scaling found in Nvidia control panel). Turning it off solved the flickering problem for me, and now the fog works fine even with DLSS / DLAA.

I have also flickering fog when flying over water, not sure if it's only hapening over water or if it's just more visible that way Edit: lovering the fog height seem to increase the flicker. Putting it to around 700ft makes it almost unnoticable Edit2: Seems to by caused by Nvidia image scaling turned on in the Nvidia control panel. Turning it off fixed it for me

Outstanding! Thank you guys

So is the multi select tool in the next update too?

Nice one with the core updates! Thank you ED. Hopefully mission editor select tool and sniper pod will make it in soon as well (end of a year? pretty please)

Hey, so was this new version you showed us in february abandoned?

Awsome!
