ouky1991 Posted May 1, 2023 Posted May 1, 2023 The forest tiling on the original (5th picture) hurts my eyes. Ugra did fine job content wise but they need to have sirious talk with their texture guy, or calibrate his screen. 2
peachmonkey Posted May 1, 2023 Posted May 1, 2023 it's like a totally different map.. We get to enjoy Normandy2 twice now! you're the real MVP, @Barthek!!! 1
Marez Posted May 1, 2023 Posted May 1, 2023 It looks much better than the original. Spectacular as always. You are a very valuable member of the community. Thank for your work!!! 2

noelgallagher Posted May 1, 2023 Posted May 1, 2023 amazing job question:should i expect any performance hit?
REDEYE_CVW-66 Posted May 1, 2023 Posted May 1, 2023 No. Retextured maps hardly ever produce any performance hit. 2 1

We plan for DCS: Normandy 2.0 to include Summer as it is being created around operations in Normandy in the summer of 1944 (Opération Neptune) but it will also include Spring and Autumn seasons.

Rob Mason Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 (edited) Hi Bartek, I cannot seem to get your new textures to show in DCS either using direct installation or OVGME which I successfully use for all your other Caucaus textures etc etc. I have no other Normandy mods running. Hope you can help. Rob Mason. P.S. Is this for Normandy 1.0 or 2.0? Edited May 2, 2023 by Rob Mason
Art-J Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 ^ What DCS version are you playing? The link on the first page gets you a mod for the old Normandy 1944 (and it contains Summer textures only), so that's something that DCS-Stable users can apply. If you're on DCS Open Beta, though, you already have Normandy 1.5/2 and Barthek's mod for that one isn't out yet. 1 i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10.
Rob Mason Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 Yeah thanks Art-J i just figured that out LOL, I'm running Norm 2.0 in OBeta.

I like the adjusted greens, but imo there is too much brown field tiling in your mod as in this shot. I loved the further inclusion of them from your first iteration with Normandy 1, but for Normandy 2 it seems excessive. Thanks!

Sandman24 Posted May 6, 2023 Posted May 6, 2023 Looks amazing; can't wait for it! Quick question about the seasons: does N2 currently have no winter textures at all, or are the winter textures identical to the autumn/spring ones? In other words, are there only three sets of textures, or four out of which two are identical? In the latter case, @Barthek could implement winter textures after all. Though I suppose you would have to do something about the trees as well in that case. Speaking of which, are there plans to have a Better Trees mod for N2?
Barthek Posted May 6, 2023 Author Posted May 6, 2023 A quick update: As for the winter textures, there's no way I can make the map covered with snow without developer tools. What I will try to achieve is something like late autumn/early winter with some snow patches here and there - but that's still weeks ahead. 12 2
