dresoccer4 Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 Wanted to test out the new shockwave effects on vegetation so fired off a couple missiles from the Huey. However there was just a regular explosion and no shockwave or plant movement. Is it only implemented with some aircraft?

Does the grass and trees move when you fly over them? If not, double check again you're using the MT version.

Gunfreak Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Rockets have relatively little impact on the vegetation. I noticed that with the WW2 rockets. The trees move more violently depending on explosive force. So a 2000lb will make the trees dance more than a 500lb. 1 i7 13700k @5.2ghz, GTX 3090, 64Gig ram 4800mhz DDR5, M2 drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember explosion graphics are totally off in DCS. Rocket explosions are too big, bomb explosions are too small. the 3.4kg warhead in the HVAR WW2 rockets crate a far bigger explosion than the 500lb WW2 GP bomb. 1 i7 13700k @5.2ghz, GTX 3090, 64Gig ram 4800mhz DDR5, M2 drive.
