I don't have FC but I'm curious... What's wrong with the landing gear?

Hm... did anyone from ED giveth a reply in this thread?

 

And I don't refer to testers...

 

C'mon guys, ad that frikkin A-10C canopy double glass into the model and stick the crazing texture onto it... is that so hard?

 

Like 3D Max, select object, CTRL-C, CTRL-V... make transparent, link to existing canopy, apply crazing texture... oh, wait, where's that old FC2 developer folder where we keep the crazing texture, oh look, here it is... File save as... convert to EDM... done... :music_whistling:

Not voting. Why?

 

I DO want but I feel that ED would need to improve the distance rendering of air targets and missiles (not so much with ground) as its hard enough to see such objects without scratches. I would hope EDGE goes a long way to fixing this and therefore might be the time to add cockpit scratches (weather effects like ice and rain too for that matter).

I think with dx9, scratches are only possible on 2d cockpits. They cannot or they will not remake them for 6dof cockpits in current dx9 version. (waste of time due to development of the new dx11 engine?). developers can correct me on this.

I think they already tried to put the old scratches on the A-10c with no success. (makes me wander if the original people from ED are still there, or they 've just hired a couple of ''moders'' to continue the DCS legacy).

Nope, they're possible in any cockpit. All it takes is cloning the canopy glass in the original model file (3ds Max), making it slightly larger, and giving it a coarse normal map with the crazing tiled all over the glass. That's how it is in the P-51. It would seriously only take 5 minutes to accomplish...

It is possible! Glass Crazings are back again, at least for the Huey!!!

 

Just noticed Belsimtek have them in the Huey (maybe even before 1.2.5), so it seems not an issue with the engine or DX or modelling... it obviously is something that can be done!

And by the way, it makes the Huey cockpit feel more real, like there is actual glass in it!

A-10C cockpit hasn't been touched in a very long time, the artist has moved on to other projects.
