Thanks this has been reported.

 

continue to use ultra for now, as the extreme setting is causing this issue

[archer86]

Same here , I hope they'll release a quick fix for etreme visibility option.

Overall, this update is worst one

Well, there are other aspects of the 1.5.1 update that are quite nice - so, it's not all bad. :)

Strange thing, i don't have extreme.lua in \Config\terrain

I can set extreme in options but see no difference because file is missing.

I was trying do a repair, i checked autoupdate_log but everything looks ok.

Can anyone verify that this file is missing?

ED seems to integrate my little mod ^^ it makes me happy :) you can use the Extreme.lua is in my mod

Your mod is great, thx for that.

EDs not so much, that update is total mess.

Is this the same bug? Taking off from cold start = can't see the runway.

[theropod]

yes same bug!

 

do not use the visibility range 'extreme' option for now.

Thanks for your mod, I love it. But for the actual Beta it`s bringing up an issue with the F10 map, that I reported here: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=152073

Terrain texture washed

 

After the last update each time I start the software the texture become automatically washed. I have to select a preset and set all options again to become normal, but again once I exit the software and get back the issue returns. I have already tried the repair options but it didn't solve.

 

Is this a known bug?

 

I forgot to add that i'm referring to the 1.5

 

UPDATE : I realized that this happens only when I set visibility range to extreme

No textures/buildings after selecting Extreme Visible Range

 

Hi all - I decided to download and reinstall the 1.5 OpenBeta from scratch just to test things out. Steps I took:

 

1. Downloaded beta files from DCS.

2. Ran install, no problems.

3. Ran update to 1.5.1.

3. Started DCS World OpenBeta.

4. Installed my modules, A-10C, F-15, UH-1, P-51 from module manager.

5. Went to options and configured my settings. I saw that the Visible Range EXTREME setting was now available, so I selected that to see what it would look like.

6. Started A-10C Instant Action East Georgia Spring mission.

 

The mission loaded up, but there were no textures or buildings whatsoever, just kind of a cloudy, strange looking landscape with zero detail.

 

I thought, well, I had done a lot in this Windows session, so I rebooted, started DCS World OpenBeta again, started same mission, same problem.

 

I got out of the mission, went back to settings and selected Visible Range ULTRA.

 

Afterward I had textures and buildings when running the mission again.

 

Stopped the mission, went back to settings, set Visible Range back to EXTREME.

 

Went back into the mission, and I had textures and details, but I'm not sure if they correlate to EXTREME because in the log, I saw the following:

 

00369.171 ERROR Config: can't open 'Config/terrain/Extreme.lua'

 

I checked my Config/terrain folder, and there is no Extreme.lua file present.

 

Getting out of DCS World OpenBeta and back in again leaving the EXTREME setting in place, I again have no textures when running the mission.

 

I have attached a screen shot and the list of files in my Config/terrain folder. For some reason the file manager is not uploading the DCS log file.

[GeneralDynamics]

OK, got the log file attached - had to copy it to a txt file.

I believe they have recommended not using extreme for now as it is somewhat bugged.

Thanks I missed that information

[GeneralDynamics]

Running a repair did not resolve the problem.

[GeneralDynamics]

There are varying degrees of the same problem in all installed modules.

[Velsuvis]

I too am experencing the exact same issue... and did the exact same thing, so it has to do with the extreme setting... I am glad you told me that, I was about to leave it to a ticket and a post here as well, lol...

 

I am glad that someone else has the issue so that there is a workaround... :D until EXTREME becomes available, and stable, that is :D

[dartuil]

+1 I was going to report!!

[GeneralDynamics]

Sorry all, that I missed this thread and double reported in another thread earlier. I did a search and still overlooked this one somehow. Thanks for moving my report to the correct thread...

I also have a textures problem that might be related, colors are off on trees and hangars too.

But on my system, the bug is present, irrespective of the chosen graphic settings.

Also, this bug is only present when in cockpit view. Outside view is not affected.

Is the band ED already working on a bug?

When can we expect a new update of improving visibility?
