Diesel_Thunder Posted July 9, 2021 Posted July 9, 2021 Just searched and didn't see this posted anywhere. I'm running open beta 2.7.3.8494, with no mods, set to 1080p and low shadows. Objects on the deck are casting shadows on the water, instead of on the deck. Can grab a track if needed, but figured a screenshot would be enough to document this. The SH-60 is airborne and its shadow is correct. My Hornet is still on deck, as is the crew for cats 1-4, that the shadows are on the water. The SC isn't casting a shadow either (not sure if ships so with shadows set to low).

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted July 9, 2021 ED Team Posted July 9, 2021 Hi, As far as I am aware it is a known side effect of using flat shadows. Try with flat shadows off or with full shadows, see if it helps. 1 Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

I imagine that the terrain object flat shadows are causing this? I'm on a GTX 980 so I'm trying to maintain a good balance with detail and performance. 1 PC: MSI X670E, Ryzen 9 7900X, 64GB DDR5 RAM, RTX 3090 Ti, TM Warthog HOTAS, Saitek Pro Flight pedals, Opentrack Link to my Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/DieselThunderAviation Commander, 62nd Virtual Fighter Squadron Join the 62nd VFS today!

I set terrain object shadows to default and everything looks normal. I'd mark your post as the solution, but it seems I can't do that in this particular forum? 2 PC: MSI X670E, Ryzen 9 7900X, 64GB DDR5 RAM, RTX 3090 Ti, TM Warthog HOTAS, Saitek Pro Flight pedals, Opentrack Link to my Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/DieselThunderAviation Commander, 62nd Virtual Fighter Squadron Join the 62nd VFS today!
