nrgized Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 What are your specs, and we are talking Normandy, I think you only have access to one branch that runs that... I'm running stutter spec. 6700k, 32gb, ssd, 1080ti, vr. I understand you run release candidates but that implies they eventually get released. I've noticed comments by yourself since first Normandy release that it runs better which based on my experience none of the few released patches indicate.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk It doesnt run as good as NTTR yet, but I dont have very many issues with it, and it gets better with every release... so? I stand by my comments, since before release its run pretty goof for me. I had stutter issues before I moved it to my SSD drive. So what else?

Torso Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Shadows are not pre-baked/painted, but they are not dynamic as well, the positions is updated at a few points over a 24 hour period, this is a balance between performance and quality. Dynamic shadows was attempted early on internally I believe, but was too much of a hit based on object count, map size, etc. Maybe in the future as computers improve and ED's terrain engine matures we will see more on this... Thanks for the clarification. That is a good answer and makes sense. If they update their pos a few times during the daylight time cycle then that is a great compromise. Just never noticed the shadows cast at 9am in the world terrain are different than the ones cast at 2pm in the same location. And to clarify this is how it is currently in NTTR and Normandy? But again thanks for the answer and the info, appreciate it. Really looking forward to it regardless of course. Screenies are gorgeous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not 100% sure about Normandy, I would assume so, but I have never checked it. Its harder to notice as terrain shadows are harder to see there. I love flying with a nice layer of fog over Normandy, so I tend to miss the terrain shadows more :) Forum Rules • My YouTube • My Discord - NineLine#0440• **How to Report a Bug** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that low fog layer in Normandy is really comfy. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gierasimov Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 I agree No, this was a few years ago when EDGE first hit our internal builds, and have long since vanished, I am sure they might consider revisiting as things mature, just not happening right now.(...) Yep, you are right. I tried with a mission set around sunset time and it does the job (lighting). Enough for me. Thanks for your reply.

Fri13 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 I wonder how it is that we still have the terrain textures with satellite imagery that shows some buildings and such? Like doesn't the terrain engine allow to use a automatic terrain generation tools that identifies a building blocks in the satellite images and then place above them something randomly? Same thing with the roads and everything, where mapper would just need to paint areas to be something and then the tool would just randomly place the buildings, roads, railways, rivers etc based basic logic? That would radically improve and speed up the map generations for DCS as people could either make a fictional maps or then some to build a more realistic ones based historical maps or even todays maps (without famous sightseeing/landmarks). 1 i7-8700k, 32GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 2x 2080S SLI 8GB, Oculus Rift S. i7-8700k, 16GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 1080Ti 11GB, 27" 4K, 65" HDR 4K.

firmek Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 The NTTR and Normandy look just amazing, can't wait for the new Caucasus map. However, aside of the eye-candies is there any information on the map topology itself? What I mean is: 1. Size of the map, is it going to remain the same or is there a plan to expand it? 2. Cities reproduction. To some extend being quite generic today - for example compare real Poti area with the one currently in-game. 3. Timeline. For example the Novorossiysk airport doesn't exist anymore. Marneuli AB is missing on the map. 1 F/A-18, F-16, F-14, M-2000C, A-10C, AV-8B, AJS-37 Viggen, F-5E-3, F-86F, MiG-21bis, MiG-15bis, L-39 Albatros, C-101 Aviojet, P-51D, Spitfire LF Mk. IX, Bf 109 4-K, UH-1H, Mi-8, Ka-50, NTTR, Normandy, Persian Gulf... and not enough time to fully enjoy it all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
