malarcky Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I am getting this weird strip pattern with shadows on low/mid/high setting. Anisotropic, msaa and ssaa seems to have no effect, only disappears if I disable shadows. Dont remember to have this problem on the previous version. Also you can only see them on certaing angles, mainly on top view. Also tried deleting shaders and fx folder, no effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralDynamics Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 (edited) I just updated open beta to 2.8.2.35682, but I don't know if that's when this issue started. I noticed that when flying the Caucases Free Flight mission just to test the update, and while in the F4 view, there are evenly spaced lines all across the wing that change in spacing and angle as the orientation of the aircraft changes. I've marked some of them in red in the screenshot below. In this orientation flying straight and level after setting the AP to Heading and allowing the aircraft to change course and settle out they extend from the front to the rear of the wing as shown. Also in this specific orientation, they creep slightly to the right every few seconds. Track file attached. Thank you!

jonsky7 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 (edited) Hi, I'm seeing weird lines on textures since the last update.... Don't recall seeing them before this patch, anyone else? I've done a cache delete, FXO and metashaders etc weird lines.trk Most of these shots are slightly exaggerated to get the point across, but I see them out of the window and across the cockpit textures sometimes too.

r24 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 I sometimes see a similar effect in VR (hp G2). The lighting or angle seems to make a difference. Didn't notice before the update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonsky7 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 (edited) Well I reverted back to 2.8.1.34667.2 to test it out. No banding there. I used the same track replay as above, so exactly same conditions etc. That's a bit of a downgrade and HORRIBLE.

Yeah, turning shadows off removes the lines, but not having shadows isn't much of a fix. They get wider and worse the lower the setting you use for shadows.

Edit: Im not sure my problem is the same as people seem to be having in this topic because I dont see the lines outside of the cockpit or on the airframe at all, its only when looking in certain areas of the cockpit. And they move as I move my head. Edited January 28, 2023 by Pekins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, that's a separate "issue" to the shadow banding issue in the current patch. I've always had that "film" issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St4rgun Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 The 2.8.2.35759 OB patch produces ugly color banding on airframes and other surfaces like the tarmac which is worst at low sun conditions (example: M2000 Nevada take-off instant action). In this OB the gamma defaulted at 1.8 so I checked with both 2.0 and 2.2 also but the banding was the same. At first I tought that my G2 produced the banding but fortunately the screenshots also contained it. Check those out for reference.
