zaelu Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) mirrors have been replaced from textures with real time render so your cockpit texture files must have the new instructions. Usually what you have means you have a cockpit mod that is not updated.

Cibit Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 I don't know why but I had this http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=154240 and yesterday when I played it resolved itself and I now have mirrors.

Cibit Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Only other course is to delete the module in module manager not just unactivate it and re-download the entire MI-8 module from scratch. By that I mean don't let it copy files from 1.5 which may be part of the problem. i5 8600k@5.2Ghz, Asus Prime A Z370, 32Gb DDR4 3000, GTX1080 SC, Oculus Rift CV1, Modded TM Warthog Modded X52 Collective, Jetseat, W10 Pro 64 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Adding JTAC Guide //My Vid's//229th AHB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art-J Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Just checked the mirrors on both 1.5 nd 2.0, default and Chinese cockpit and they work allright on my GTX780. Once again, did You or did You not install any cockpit mods for Mi-8? If You did and placed them in SavedGames folder on C: drive, the repairing or reinstalling the module won't help, as the updater doesn't change files in that folder. i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10.

FastForward Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 I'm pretty sure you checked this already, but the same thing happened to me when I moved from 1.2 to 1.5, and I had just to press the M key and it did the trick :smilewink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maks Posted December 6, 2015 Author Share Posted December 6, 2015 No , no mods ever installed for mi8! None of the versions! I had him installed in 1.2 , then i installed in dcsw2 , without having them in 1.5 , maybe that was causing it? But i did remove them from all 3 versions now and installed it again as fresh in dcsw 2 , but again i get no texture on the mirrors , very frustrating but have no clue ? Have no clue what could have happened.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piXel496 Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) ..i can only see blue with yellow cross and text mirrors , instead of full mirror reflections :( anyone an idea how to fix ?.. What changed is file "description.lua" for all aircafts with mirrors. Just in case you still don't have mirrors that file is probably the issue. Added in this file is something like: {"mi-8mt-mirror", 0 ,"mirrors",true};--mirrors texture replacement with runtime rendered one For the mi8 it is probably somewhere in: drive:\DCS World 2 OpenAlpha\Mods\aircraft\Uh-1H\Liveries\Cockpit_mi-8mt\default\ If this row is missing, mirrors will not work. Maybe someone with working mirrors can check and be exact with names, Since I don't own this module. All modules I have, have this this "mirrors texture replacement" row addedd in there "description.lua". "M" just switches mirrors on/off . Edited December 6, 2015 by piXel496 uninstalling then installing the module in the modulemanager should fix this. old stuff I made Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
