mattag08 Posted May 26, 2020 Posted May 26, 2020 The angle deck markings are too gray in color and are unusable outside of about 0.5 NM. I can see where the developers were trying to create a weathered look, but making the markings all a shade of gray is not realistic in terms of weathering or usuable in the sim. I uploaded images of the Supercarrier vs. how the actual markings look in real life. Note that the white paint is very bright and easily visible. The centerline stripe has highly visible yellow/white paint so it stands out and can be used at very long range for lineup information. These things should be visible while in the 180 if visibility is good (i.e. Case I conditions). I hope the devs understand this is not pedantic and is vital for flying a proper groove. Also note that the mipmap appears to be pulling mostly the dark gray from the flight deck and the dark brown of the rubber marks from the middle of the landing area as opposed to the white or yellow for the angle deck markings at range. This makes the angle deck just look like a gray/brown blob outside of about 2 NM. Flying the DCS: F-14B from Heatblur Simulations with Carrier Strike Group 2 and the VF-154 Black Knights!
