Northstar98 Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 8 hours ago, Nealius said: It isn't spherical? Illumination appears to replicate a spherical model, since you can take off in darkness and as you climb to altitude you get lit up by the sunset as if you wound back time. I know the map is definitely flat, there is a shader at high altitude that gives you the illusion that it's spherical. But if you can climb and be illuminated by the sun, then perhaps they've modelled the sun and the moon as it would be expected on a spherical Earth. I don't know, just a hunch.

The things you hold like a wand with buttons....I thought "touch controller" meant gloves that enable you to actually "touch" things in the game rather than point a laser pointer at it and press a button.

Dragon1-1 Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 They're called "touch controllers" because the first ones were called Oculus Touch. There appears to be Capto glove support in DCS, but I don't know if it works, and from what I've heard the gloves aren't that great, anyway.

The coordinates system leaves in evidence that none of the maps are spherical. I might be wrong but that's how I see it. 2 Stay safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they also mentioned that they didn't or maybe wouldn't re-model Caucasus to take advantage... but as I recall all other maps save maybe Nevada are spherical. All I've seen so far is that EDGE might support spherical maps, but current maps are flat, and as such things like vectors (for things like forces) will reference a cartesian coordinate system, they would need to reference a spherical coordinate system to work on a spherical Earth. There are workarounds employed to replicate certain effects to simulate a spherical Earth, such as RADAR LOS and a shader at high altitude, and maybe things like the moon, sun and stars, but the maps themselves are all shaped as if the Earth was flat. One of NineLine's comments seems to confirm this.

gulredrel Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Looks like the stable changelog on the website (DCS 2.7.7.15038 - 03.11.2021) is a copy of the old stable changelog and not the merge of the latest open beta changelogs DCS 2.7.7.15038 Open Beta - 28.10.2021 and DCS 2.7.7.14727 Open Beta - 20.10.2021 Regards Jens 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
