Slow loading and dark shadows

[Ala12Rv-Tundra]

Hi all,

Last night I tried the new update. After clicking, the loading process took so long I thought something was wrong, ending the task with Windows... twice.

Loading up again, I let the computer work, drank a soda, keep surfing the web, took my kindle to the bathroom... some minutes later, game passed the DCS world loading screen, and finally, after some milleniums, main menu showed up on my rift.

Loading one of my very used refuelling mission took ages too.

 

And then, being inside the Hornet cockpit @ Batumi at dusk time, made the interior absolutely dark. I couldn´t see anything, even the lights rotary knobs.

Shadows on external view are very dark too.

Like I said, I have flown this particular refuel mission many times, and never had a problem with shadows. It was pitch dark inside.

All I can suggest is that you turn off all mods run a repair and clean up. Delete meta shaders and FXO folders. Did you have any mods on when you updated to the latest beta?

hi, first of all thanks for the input.

Loading time came back to normal today, I guess it was a matter of "first start after updating".

Pitch zero black remains, though.

 

Here are some screenshots from the mission:

Regarding mods, I have currently installed:

- several liveries

- VR shaders mod

- 479th objects

 

 

So my guess is VR shaders and new update stuff collide.

Yeah man disable mods. Don't need that shader mod now anyway! I'm actually not sure if the same benefits cannot be achieved by just deleting the terrain/metacahe files.
