[RESOLVED]F-16 Only - Dust Smoke Flicker

[Deano87]

Hey All.

 

I just set up a mission in the F-16 in Persian gulf. I figured I'd restrict visibility a bit to make things more interesting... and so I used the "Dust Smoke" feature in the mission editor weather tab. I guess its more of a Sand Storm.

 

Anyway In the F-16 this dust storm flickers terribly. Interestingly It only happens from inside the cockpit. The external view looks perfectly normal.

 

Thinking that this might be a universal problem I tried the following aircraft.

 

F-18

F5

F-15

Yak-52

AV8B

 

All of those above aircraft did not suffer from this problem. It only happens with the F-16 for some reason.

 

Its 100% reproducible for me. I tried a DCS Repair and that didn't solve it. I also tried switching from VR mode to normal mode, but that also didn't remove it.

 

Here is a link to a video I made. Its a fullscreen capture of the VR preview so its a bit stretched but it does show what I'm talking about. Also attached is a track. Running in latest Beta

 

 

Hope this helps!

I get the same thing on PG map with sea fog...it only does it at higher altitudes...settings are all high/ultra with maxed view distance and preload radius...I basically run the same settings as Wags on my 8700k/32gbRAM@3000mhz/1080Ti Rig. 27inch G-Sync 1440p/144hz, FaceTrackNOIR w/Logitech C270 Webcam

 

 

Could it be a Persian Gulf map issue?

 

 

By the way, how to we embed videos in our posts?

With only the F-16? I can’t say I've ever tried fog on PG... I’ll give it a go tomorrow.

Hi

 

this is already reported, it can happen for other aircraft also.

 

We have it fixed internally but requires other merges from our development build.

 

We will see this in a future version of DCS

 

Thanks
