Eight Ball Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 (edited) Catchy title, isn't it :) I'm surprised ED went with hexagonal lens flares, which is typically produced when using "cheap" cameras. 6-blade iris diaphragm : As you can see, this lens has an hexagonal shaped aperture. It would produce hexagonal shaped lens flare or bokeh in the right conditions. (...)Rounder flare and bokeh is normally preferred from pro lenses, which is why they use more blades, but with added cost.9-blade diaphragm I like hexagonal lens flare, it gives an "amateur" feel to screenshots but it look odd on proper "beauty shots" Would you consider adding the option to switch between hexagonal lens flares and round ones ?

GeorgeLKMT Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 But... I like hexagons! :lol: This is easily moddable though... ■ L-39C/ZA Czech cockpit mod ■ My DCS skins ■
69iAFMike Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 (edited) Yes please, ED, give us properly simulated cameras please! DCS Leica and DCS Kodak! No doubt DCS Leica will cost 100$ at least, per camera. But yeah, the shape is easy to change. It's just the alpha channel of lensGhost.dds Edited October 11, 2015 by 69iAF~Mike

cichlidfan Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 (edited) We're taking images of a state-of-the-art simulation. It should look like we are using good glass. ;) Edited October 20, 2015 by cichlidfan 1 ASUS ROG Maximus VIII Hero, i7-6700K, Noctua NH-D14 Cooler, Crucial 32GB DDR4 2133, Samsung 950 Pro NVMe 256GB, Samsung EVO 250GB & 500GB SSD, 2TB Caviar Black, Zotac GTX 1080 AMP!

69iAFMike Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 You guys have no idea what a good lens flare is all about. 1
Doum76 Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 I never liked the Hexagonal lens flare effect and never turned it on, but today i decided i should try to find if there was a mod for it, i found this thread and decided to give a try and create one... so here's what mine look like, if you rather keep the star like sun effect, simply keep the 2 « lensGhost » DDS. Attached is a picture of what i tried to reproduce. Here is the link to the download file. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/2262161/
