Baz000 Posted July 25, 2020 Posted July 25, 2020 (edited) So I noticed in the Su-33 in the instrument panel glass of each and every instrument that I see reflections of my own cockpit inside, I don't think this should be there because you need to be able to do a quick scan of your instruments and this makes it more difficult to read... This is especially a pain in trying to land on the Kuznetsov using ILS in horrible weather. Just for my own sake of due diligence I used the same mission with every Soviet designed plane I can think of that I have in DCS and much to my amazement no other aircraft had this type of behavior of the instrument glass other than the oxygen quantity display on the L-39 but this is because it is reflecting an cockpit wall object that hangs right over the oxygen gauge so this is very understandable and realistic. The effect on the Su-33 however I sincerely think needs to be reviewed and adjusted as these reflections are also showing in times like inside shadows or under cloud cover Attached is numerous tracks of the same mission of me letting the various planes fly into the ground on their own without any intervention from me so you can see the changing light inside the cockpit as the planes nose up and down. if you look the zoomed in Su-33 track you can clearly see exactly what i'm talking about the most prevalent thing to notice is the red ejection handles and seat showing up in the engine temp gauges and ramp position for example.su33test.trksu33testzoom.trksu27test.trksu25test.trksu25ttest.trkl39ctest.trkl39zatest.trki16test.trkmig15test.trkmig19test.trkmig21test.trkmig29atest.trkmig29stest.trkyak52test.trk Edited July 25, 2020 by Baz000
Baz000 Posted July 25, 2020 Author Posted July 25, 2020 Also I created a thunderstorm right above me that has a base starting at 500m altitude in the same mission, you can see the cockpit glass still is shiny and reflecting the cockpit even under and in a thunderstorm where there should not be such an effect physically possible... Track is attached of this particular flight below:su33testzoomstorm.trk
