skywalker22 Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 (edited) There is a the right white line along the runway 23 in the air, floating. Its really hard to tell from the pictures only, you should really see it in person. But it looks like white lines are way off the ground, floating.

Grodin Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Sligthtly hard to tell from a screenshot, but the north side runway side marker is floating in the air. From some angles you can see "under it", but from that angle the marking will disappear completely. Fighting for peace is like screwing for virginity.

Tom P Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 This was reported in 2022 and is still a thing. What's the hold up, It's not like there is that much on PG or at Qeshm's airfield. It's not a game breaker or anything but still it's been 489 days since first reported, and 170 days since a fix is on the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team BIGNEWY Posted March 4 ED Team Share Posted March 4 At the moment its all about our terrain teams having free time, they are currently busy with the Free Marianas WWII terrain, Iraq and Afghanistan. I will bump the reports internally but I can not say when for a fix. thanks 2 Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

joey45 Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 At a guess they'll probably fix some other stuff as well and bundle it in one 30 gig update. 1 The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

Terry Dactil Posted October 22 Share Posted October 22 (edited) Can someone show me what the problem is here? If the white line is above ground level I would expect it to cut through the wheel and also to disrupt the line of a shadow edge passing over it Example of disrupted shadow edge.

You would be correct, except that in DCS, shadows (especially 'flat shadows') can work differently to save some processing compared to RL - and the shadow itself can sometimes float. (Different issue - not related to this topic - except that it's causing the screenshots not to show correctly). Even when I know very well what the problem is - to me - the shadow appears on the ground in the screenshot - but I know it's definitely not. The problem can't really be seen in the pictures. It's best to take a look at the video for a better explanation (4th post) for what's actually happening. It's even significantly more obvious in VR.

It all makes sense now, particularly after a closer look at the video. My mistake assuming 'floating' meant some distance above the surface. Probably more accurate to say the white line is slides on the ground surface. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mistake assuming 'floating' meant some distance above the surface. Probably more accurate to say the white line is slides on the ground surface. I can see why you would say that, but actually - it is floating, not sliding. (in 2-D it may give the appearance of sliding, but in VR - it is definitely floating. You can definitely see it closer to you, and above the ground). You can actually see the ground on the other side of the white line under the line if you get out of the plane and view externally. It's as though it has 2 anchor points - one at the west end, and the other 3/4 of the way to the eastern end - and the line is straight - and does not curve with the ground. As such, it is suspended/floating in the air between these too points. The video would have shown it much better if he was out of the cockpit, but either way - nothing compares to seeing it in 3D for just how 'in your face' (excuse the pun) it is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Still shots) And yes... we're approaching the 2 year mark now. The thing that ticks me off with this stuff is I'm fairly sure that it was fine when the map was first released - the bug only got introduced 2 years ago. It's one thing to say we're working/focused on other projects at the moment to refer to slowing down development maybe of some EA modules... but it's another thing to say we're no interested in fixing something that we've broken that used to be OK because we're focused elsewhere... for 2 years. While this isn't a game breaking issue like some other things - it's unfortunately sent a message that it's no priority for them to fix something if they break it after it's been developed. Actions (or lack thereof) speak louder than words. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
