Impact Posted June 26, 2011 Posted June 26, 2011 Does anybody else have this problem? When I made a mission with 10 on the cloudscale with thunderstorm as weather, the color of the lightning is only dark blue. There is still the white blue flash in the clouds itself, just the lightning arc is dark blue. I have a Geforce 560 TI, and old drivers, is it a driver issue? anybody else with this card and the latest driver getting correct lightning displayed? ------=:: I FLY BLEIFREI ::=------
Impact Posted June 26, 2011 Author Posted June 26, 2011 I updated my drivers to the latest certified version, and it still persists. Its difficult to photograph a lightning, but i managed to do it. Much respect to reallife lightning photographers. ------=:: I FLY BLEIFREI ::=------

Guess what members of the "ED Testers Team" are doing all day? :megalol: I just wanted to fly a mission today, blowing up bridges, tanks and helicopters while lightning strikes as my speakers play THUNDERSTRUCK by AC/DC. Would make a cool video.. Is this only a problem with nvidia cards? ------=:: I FLY BLEIFREI ::=------
Nate--IRL-- Posted June 26, 2011 Posted June 26, 2011 No it only happens in late evening or night IIRC. It happens to everybody. Nate Ka-50 AutoPilot/stabilisation system description and operation by IvanK- Essential Reading
Impact Posted June 26, 2011 Author Posted June 26, 2011 No it only happens in late evening or night IIRC. It happens to everybody. Nate Hmmm. So basicly, there could be a problem that the texture of the lightning arc itself disappears at night? Does the engine work that way? That there are textures that stop being displayed at night? ------=:: I FLY BLEIFREI ::=------
Nate--IRL-- Posted June 26, 2011 Posted June 26, 2011 IIRC it is more semitransparent at night - but yes lots of models have different textures at night, buildings for example. Nate Ka-50 AutoPilot/stabilisation system description and operation by IvanK- Essential Reading

Impact Posted June 26, 2011 Author Posted June 26, 2011 I tried editing the texture file for the lightning arc, painting it completely white, but it seems that the lightning doesnt change at all when I see it in the daytime. I also tried changing minimum width to 50 instead of 5, and it still showed the same arc. Guess its hardcoded? No way to modify it? ------=:: I FLY BLEIFREI ::=------
