I would like to request to modify the contrail because in real life it depends on OAT temperature, air density and engine EGT to appears , on DCS it always appears between 8000m and 12.000m, any chance to fix it?

 

thanks

This has been discussed a few times. A lot of people would love for this to be fixed or random.

Let's see what EDGE brings.

The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

I hope in edge it starts and stops randomly.

+1 I fully agree :thumbup:

 

 

 

Currently the climatic effects in DCS are Very Very Very POOR

 

I think the climatic effects on DCS is a disaster , I think it climatic effects should be totally redone must be reprogrammed from the first stage.

 

aircrafts are impressive are really beautiful very nice. , but the climatic effect is horrible ! ! !

A bit harsh! As previously stated, let us wait and see what Edge brings to the table.

 

I am sure that weather simulation is one of the many things that are listed for updating. But as with all things, there is a limit to what can be achieved in the short term.

 

First, build the foundations, then add the walls, then finally the finials. We're waiting for the graphics engine update, and there would be absolutely no point adding better weather to a system that is soon destined for the scrap heap.

 

Once we have Edge, then all these other requests will make sense, but right now, it could be likened to pointing out that the wallpaper pattern doesn't match in a house that is on fire, and about to burn to the ground!

unfortunately that wont be nice Cali

 

OAT/humidity/altitude (seasons, rain, snow, air pressure) is the key on visibility

 

engine RPM and EGT is the key on how far/distance starts the condensation behind the aircraft

 

fuel consumption is the key on the contrail density and thickness

 

simple calculations

Really are harsh words but fair weight. :)

I think I'm not the one to approve his thoughts, certainly has more people who also approve your thoughts.

 

thought fair enough 100% approved

 

"flying" a beautiful airplane in timeline adobe after effects , 2d effects in a scenario 3d , really horrible ! ! !

+1,I hate when my plane is dragged on the ground when the wind is 1ms.

Other games/sims have it start and stop randomly, surely edge should be able to do it. We have to wait and see what DCSW2 and Edge provide first.

i was just surprised and pleased to see that contrails are even a "thing" in DCS

 

yes, they could be better

 

not going to put any requirements on it other than "ED, please make contrails better" -- and let them take it from there

 

so far when they do things, i am mostly very impressed --- they think of things i wouldn't think of, and include features that i would hesitate to request for fear of it being "too little and insignificant" - yet they do it..
