Patch Note Discussion December 2024

[Wostg]

dumb question - does the new engine automatically add some effect throughout (e.g. appearance of new, if minimal, lighting on a sunny summer's afternoon on a Nevada-based tutorial mission) or just where you've specifically applied relevant weather affects to a specific mission, e.g. applied to a cold winter's morning in Kola via mission editor. Thank you!

Still playing with the fog effects, trying to find the sweet spot, but it's great. At this point just give me the Kola map and the new effects and that's all I need. What a beauty.

 

This is some great flying. The visuals are five-star!

It's a real shame these fixes were left out. Could they be added in a hotfix?

tried this and it didn't work, tried to bind all the 3 options to my flight kit, and also didn't work

I reported the hatches and sent NineLine a track file. But thanks for confirming it's not just me.  In my case it doesn't work for neither Player nor Client.

BN, I think there's a misunderstanding - seems like Aerges thought those features were in (hence their changelog - see subforum) but aparantly the changes weren't in the patch file and hence those changes aren't featured in game right now.

rgr understood, I will enquire.

I'm being told the changes are in the patch for the Mirage F1

I have also flickering fog when flying over water, not sure if it's only hapening over water or if it's just more visible that way

 

Edit: lovering the fog height seem to increase the flicker. Putting it to around 700ft makes it almost unnoticable

 

Edit2: Seems to by caused by Nvidia image scaling turned on in the Nvidia control panel. Turning it off fixed it for me

This is weird. All mods in Saved Games have stopped working. Keybinds and settings work correctly but mods do not anymore.

[bruto12]

Any chance to have a Huey upgrade, like F5E? 

[kotor633]

I thought the same thing. I would also like to add the Mi-8. And then maybe not just a graphical update but also additional functionality.

Same problem  with Hatches! They don't work for me too.

Good question. I don't think there's a trace of the new fog in the old F-5E Instant Action - Take off 1 mission Apart from new heavy flickering down south from Batumi along the coastline.

I've not had chance to fly a Mosquito down a foggy fjord yet but it's at the top of my list for the weekend.

hotfix for what?

[Esac_mirmidon]

Carrier lights could be nice. The ball lights are inverted. pointing to the other side.

What is missing from in the F-1 changelog.

So, after a day of extensive testing on my system, a short maneuver review. I have to say, DCS not only looks incredibly good after the new patch, the performance is also sensational. I just flew a short circuit in the new F-5 around Cyprus on the Syria map and even my wife stood there in amazement. I take this as the ultimate indicator for confirmation of visual beauty, by the way...! ;-D Yes, what can you say. I am happy. I just wish the F-5 in particular would get a few more features. Hey, I mean, at the end of the day I would have even added an extra $5-10 to the actual price for Mavericks, 4 Sidewinders, a new radio and VOR/ILS. Personally, I would like something more to come. A big request in this case! And please ED, please do this kind of rework with the F-86F and the MiG-15 too. The two modules definitely deserve such a rework. With that in mind...have a nice weekend everyone and have fun with the new patch...

Hi, I cannot find the new volumetric lights settings mentioned in the patch, can some one point out where it is.

Thanks

Thanks you, that option obviously didn't make it to the new front end menu

I can't even change the setting. It's blank for me.
