improvement requested Ship wakes way too small

[N22YF]

Ship wakes are showing up super small for me - compare the attached screenshot to

.

(This is the third mission of the Su-33 Sea Dragon campaign, which becomes incredibly difficult when the speedboats don't have large wakes! The speedboats are almost invisible for me.)

I have a Zotac GeForce GTX 1080 Ti 11GB and a Samsung Odyssey+ headset.

almost 2 years later, armed boats are still unusable because they in practice they are invisible

 

ED please fix this. you might as well remove this unit from the game, in its current state.

 

pics attached are armed boats moving at 104 kph. its from the Su-33 campaign, as N22YF's video above.

I have asked the team about improving the ship wake, however I can not promise anything at this stage. 

 

thanks

Thanks a lot! I hope this is able to be addressed. If fixing this wake problem turns out to not be in the cards, then this campaign mission really should be adjusted, since it's unreasonably difficult with the current state of things.

Bump. I am also having a next to impossible time with spotting small speedboats. The wakes are too small which makes them almost invisible at night or during the day. The boats also do not show up on NVGs regardless of gamma settings. I'm going to be posting a comparison video to highlight the issue once it's done rendering.

 

Here is the comparison video. In previous iterations of DCS the speedboats were much easier to see. Now, they are next to impossible to spot. The video is still processing, so it might take a day or two for 1440p to be visible to make the issue easier to see.

 

 

 

Here is a real photo of a speedboat wake for comparison.
