truebrit Posted May 4, 2022 Posted May 4, 2022 (edited) The slime lights have been like this for a while, weeks, months, not sure, just noticed the shadows. I did have tweaks in Nvidia control panel but resetting to default did not fix it.

truebrit Posted May 6, 2022 Author Posted May 6, 2022 Is it just me getting these? Maybe it's my end, any ideas? The slime lights problem have survived through multiple Nvidia updates, multiple tweaks in the DCS system settings. I don't know what else to try.

truebrit Posted May 7, 2022 Author Posted May 7, 2022 In my stable version 2.7.11.22211 I do not get the slime light problem, they do flicker in 3rd person if I move the camera but that's it. But something interesting below, with shadows turned on I have shadows missing under the plane.

Without secondaries there are no shadows at all. Which looks even worse Secondary shadows have a couple of issues at present mainly the low resolution but they are also little too strong I feel. There not exactly a negligible performance hit either. Environmental shadows in general are not great in DCS. Whilst I see the thread is marked “in development” I’m not encouraged that the feature is being built on less than solid foundations although they remain better than nothing , MSI Tomahawk X570 Mobo, Ryzen 5600X undervolted on Artic Freezer E34 Cooler, RTX3080 FE, 32GB (2x16GB Dual Ranked) GSkil 3600 CL16 Trident Neo RAM, 2X 4th Gen M2 SSDs, Corsair RM850x PSU, Lancool 215 Case.
