I still haven't found anything more realistic for myself among all the maps than the textures of Barthek's Caucasus Yeah, that‘s true. Especially from altitude - Caucasus Redone looks marvelous! 4 "Muß ich denn jedes Mal, wenn ich sauge oder saugblase den Schlauchstecker in die Schlauchnut schieben?"

RJF Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 @Barthek When you say 'main folder', im not sure which one you mean. Is it saved games or the program files directory? I was always told not to touch the program files directory with mods... And if it is the program files directory, am I overwriting the DCS files with the same name?

Ans yes - you are overwriting the original game files. That is why a mod manager is recommended. However. If you don't wanna use one, you can restore the original files by running a slow repair. 2 "Muß ich denn jedes Mal, wenn ich sauge oder saugblase den Schlauchstecker in die Schlauchnut schieben?"

wolfstriked Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 Thanks Bartek, this was first mod I used and now that I am back in DCS it was first mod installed. 2 "Its easy,place the pipper on target and bombs away." :pilotfly: i7-8700k/GTX 1080ti/VKB-GladiatorPRO/VKB-T-rudder Pedals/Saitek X55 throttle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mnemonic Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 (edited) One (small) issue, just figured, for this mod to work properly ground textures should be on "High", when on "Low" ground works incorrectly, with some textures taken from the mod, and some default. Would be cool to also include in the mod ability to use "Low" setting, for higher performance in VR or for lower end machines. Mod looks great btw! Thanks a lot Bartek!

So far the settlement textures are the absolut low point of the Caucasus Map, which is otherwise (thanks to your re-texturing) still really nice. 2 "Muß ich denn jedes Mal, wenn ich sauge oder saugblase den Schlauchstecker in die Schlauchnut schieben?"

YSIAD_RIP Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 No grass is worth a try.. Grass is really great for Helecopter flight but we have several other good maps for that type of flight.

In Poland, generally in Europe, the fields look totally different. However, when playing with the mod, I take satellite photos of Georgia as the reference.

RedeyeStorm Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 You see these kind of fields also in the Netherlands. It usually indicated rather wet areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
