Texac Posted October 29, 2017 Posted October 29, 2017 With the OpenBeta release two years ago we also got a new missile flame exhaust, it looks fantastic no question. But this new effect doesn't match the flame exhausts of other different missile types. For example the AMRAAM's have a completely different looking flame exhaust as compared to some russian build missiles or the Sparrow missile and more. I'm not an expert but I believe there are different flame exhausts due to different rocket motors? Or does it depend on factors such as weather or alltitude, maybe both or all together? Here are two examples to display the differences quickly. I haven't really thought about it but I would really like to see the missile exhausts varying from each other in DCS World. There aren't much reasons to spend the needed time and recourses towards differences in the missiles flame exhaust but I think it would fit the eyes much better. - My Skins/Liveries - Improved F-16C Texture Template • Texac on YouTube •
MikeMikeJuliet Posted October 29, 2017 Posted October 29, 2017 Such variety would bring some pleasant variance to the visuals no doubt. Perhaps some day... DCS Finland | SF squadron
Northstar98 Posted October 29, 2017 Posted October 29, 2017 Perhaps some day as MikeMikeJuliet has said, I've felt the same thing about gun effects and especially missile flame effects.

Capn kamikaze Posted October 29, 2017 Posted October 29, 2017 It's down to a lot of factors, the motor, the exhaust nozzle, the air density, the velocity at launch etc. It would be nice, but there are many other things that need to be higher priorities than that.
Texac Posted October 29, 2017 Author Posted October 29, 2017 It would be nice, but there are many other things that need to be higher priorities than that. You're right, it's a Wishlist item and can be integrated into the sim when it is next on the list and the needed tech is already there for an accurate simulation. - My Skins/Liveries - Improved F-16C Texture Template • Texac on YouTube •
huge Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 Any news on this? Would be great to look at now we are getting better simulated A-A weapons with the hornet down the road. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=165295&highlight=missile+flame
Texac Posted October 3, 2021 Author Posted October 3, 2021 This screenshot is originally from the 1st October newsletter. As you can see it shows a new WIP missile flame exhaust of the AIM-9X going off the rail and you can see the little diamonds in there. I like such little details to the visuals so it's nice to see that change. 1 - My Skins/Liveries - Improved F-16C Texture Template • Texac on YouTube •
