Hey no worries.

 

To me it looked like a 70's or 80's paint job which got me interested/nostalgic.......

 

All I need now is some historical repaints for the hawk :D

 

Cheers!

Hi Starway and hi Everyone,

 

Starway, I have downloaded your terrain mod(v3.2) 2 days ago and find it absolutly awesome.

It's a real masterpiece in every aspects, especially the mountains textures !!

Having an environment with such real looking is like a dream come true.

Congrats and many thanks to you for this gift to our community. :thumbup:

 

Here are some screenshots I took yesterday. Everything is on "high", no CIV, trees, bushes and preload radius are maxed out and I used normal HDR.

Now, few remarks.

First, I don't know if it's me but it seems that the overall scenery appears to be a bit too dark. The inside of my A-10C cockpit looks even darker. At least in game.

Second, in winter, the contrast is sometimes too high, especially with outside views.

Of course I used your SweetFX settings (I use 1.51 version), and I'd like to know on which parameters I should play to reduce a bit darkness and contrast ?

Finally, and as suggested by Raptorsim in post #98, I removed the "view" folder of your mod (I don't use labels) I order to make the HUD easier to read when facing clouds, but I'm not really convinced since it's still difficult to read in some instances.

Voilà !

Keep on the good work and many thanks again.

looks great!

 

this mod will be working in the v1.5 beta , right?

 

i will install it straight away as soon as i finish downloading & installing the v1.5 beta (after it will be released)

 

I hope it is!

 

that is far better than default.

i presume they haven't changed anything to the original 3d terrain model mesh neither texture mapping and texture files, so we should be able to swap the original outdated textures with this mod as we always used to do. (hopefully)

Starway good Sir!

 

We are counting on that you will get a 1.5 version of this up and running at your earliest convenience. It pains the eyes not using this mod, and there aint no going back from 1.5

Nope....I've used these textures and yours before and they are (sorry were) very very good....but nothing comes close to 1.5 at the moment.

 

Edit....Well yours in 1.5 in mean!!

Sorry Mustang- not at all- it is just that 1. It does not repaint the agricultural default fields, and 2. It does not edit the buildings/city textures. (They might be tweaked- but they seem to derive from the originals?) Your ground noise/landscape texture is very good- but I have grown accustomed to this NE mod and I'm eager to see it in 1.5 lighting.

Northern Europe 1.5. is making some good progress

DCS Northern Europe by Starway

 

Nice and city puke is r.i.p (no painted houses in ground) (vanilla dcs city textures are horrible)

 

Really nice look, detail in ground is near perfect. Maybe bit too much "black holes" in ground in first pic between forest's. Please do not over detail ground = Tank's etc wont get lost so easily. Spotting +1 :)

Right now it looks beautiful. And yes plz don't make it darker. As it was too dark for me in 1.2 like after rain view.

 

Some time spotting ground targets is very difficult

sorry if that had been asked before, but is DCS Northern Europe recommended for DCS 1.5 already, or should I wait for a new 1.5 -optimized version of your mod? and thanks for your great work Starway!

 

The last uploaded version of this mod is not recommended to be used with DCS 1.5. Right now I am working on a complete redesign of the textures, making them compatible with the new engine.

 

Best
