DimSim Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) Just noticed this with latest version v2.7.12.23362 Have not isolated, but these steps did reproduce: Steps to reproduce 1. AH-64 -> Instant Action -> Desert Challenge 2. Quit mission 3. F-18 -> Mission -> Mission Qualification: Supercarrier CASE III Recovery 4. Observe sea glowing. (Restart game and skip straight to 3. to see normal behavior) Good (Normal) Bad (After repro steps) EDIT: Workaround is to restart game. (Repo step 4 hints at this, but it's important to know it can be temporarily avoided.) Edited May 1, 2022 by DimSim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Svend_Dellepude Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Delete the shader cache. If that doesn't do it, try a repair. I had the same issue and fixed it, but don't remember which of these that worked for me.

Esac_mirmidon Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Not a good solution but restarting DCS will fix the issue. At least for me, the very few times this happened.

MAXsenna Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 This have happened to me sometimes if I play a night mission directly after a day mission. And like @Esac_mirmidon says, a restart fixes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappie Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 It's even more specific. If I recall correctly, you have to play a day mission with a cloud preset, and then a night mission with no cloud preset to get this weird bug. The issue was reported earlier. 1 Don't accept indie game testing requests from friends in Discord. Ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DimSim Posted May 5, 2022 Author Share Posted May 5, 2022 Thanks, I see it's been reported since at least May 2021. 100% reproducible, hopefully will get fixed soon. At least we have a work around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappie Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Yes, that is one of many graphic bugs that were introduced by DCS 2.7. many of them have been squashed. I'll bump the report since many users encounter it. 1 1 Don't accept indie game testing requests from friends in Discord. Ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
