zb2oby Posted October 15, 2021 Posted October 15, 2021 Hi, Here my Specs : Version : DCS Open Beta 2.7.6.13436 Graphics: Ultra with RTX3060Ti VR : Oculus Rift CV1 Tested Modules : M2000C / F5-E Terrain: Caucasus (Vaziani) Wheather : Winter, sunny in the morning (10:30 am) Description : Bird on the taxiway, i turn my head aside and then the plane's shadow appear. When I recenter my head, then the plane's shadow disapear. I always play in VR and i can't remember if i've ever seen it but it seems that is the first time because it is a very visible effect (eye attracted) :
Hiob Posted October 15, 2021 Posted October 15, 2021 (edited) The same happens in pancake. When you look straight ahead you can see the shadow of your aircraft (depending of the sun's postion of course) on the ground. When you turn your Head, there comes a point where the shadow suddenly disappears. That's not exclusive to a certain aircraft. I think it has to do with the graphics engine, which will only render certain details in an angle in front of you (performance reasons I guess). Being visible sometimes is a immersion breaker, for sure, but I think it's a "feature" of the engine, not a "bug" neccessarily. Edit: It's easily reproducable. Just place an aircraft on the runway (MW takeoff from runway), and let the sun shine from a shallow angle (late afternoon). Depending on your zoom-level, you'll probably see the shadow on the runway left or right from the cockpit. Turn your head until it suddenly pops away and back in.... Edit: Thought about it. I'm using ground shadows "flat". Dunno if the same happens with a higher setting. Need to test.
