And I mean the resolution of the terrain... 1 meter? 5 meters? 10 meters etc...

DX11 does indeed open many doors. Hardware instancing (which seems implemented already), Tessellation, HDAO/HBAO, Depth of Field, TSAA, SSS. The future is looking bright :thumbup:

 

and the Best thing, Less CPU Overhead Per Draw Calls...:pilotfly:

so that's mean ED can upgrade or add something nicer to EDGE after it's release?not to mention some 3rd party addon effect?

Concord XXI and AViA seem to like showing off EDGE lately... lol

Taunting us mercilessly they are... ;)

 

Damn them and their non-Georgia coasline including maps!

 

Grrr....

Whoever was trying to say the reflections were baked into the textures needs to watch this in HD,

 

You can clearly see the clouds and Scenery moving as the Camera Pans.

 

Definitely not baked on.

 

THAT SHORE LINE! AWESOME.

 

We need a 3rd Party or Partner to do a DCS Global Terrain, I'd pay a few Hundred for it :)

I didn't see anywhere around the definite negative word about implementation of any map that is shown here or at Avia youtube chanel. Ya know - never say never, though the probability is very low, imho it does not equal zero... :smilewink:

It's already been confirmed that nothing from Concord XXI will be in DCS.

 

Concord XXI is a Professional Training Platform that Uses ED's Rendering Engine.

Oh, I had to miss that :huh: Please, can you find a quote?

As clear as a crystal. It was, it is, and always will be :smilewink:

Scroll down a bit you can see EDGE on the ground =)

 

EDIT: I'd take one of those simulators any day.

[Flagrum]

This thread is depressing me ...

 

Sooooo many maps, so much world to explore. Everyone makes best use of EDGE and has a portfolio of dozends of different maps. Corsica, somewhere-in-North-America, Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, ...

 

.... and we? We wait ...

[Suchacz]

Thanx a lot Skate

None of the Content in those videos is representative of upcoming Modules or 3rd Party Modules.

 

They Are Simply Earlier Versions of EDGE running on Different Simulation platforms being used by other companies for training.

Correct. The only thing that should be taken away from those videos is how EDGE models maps. Even so, maps could greatly vary in their look based on elevation mesh detail, art-generated vs satellite generated textures, texture resolution, object population, etc.

...but I can't see nothing that negates what I wrote. :smartass:

Maybe a possible additional amount of bucks collected by selling those maps to DCS community should persuade its devs to release them for us...

If the company responsible created it for a specific customer then they may not even have the right to distribute it.

Just because the Rendering Engine is the same doesnt mean the Base Software is.

 

They might or might not have licensing to sell it to consumers,

 

Why would they sell it to consumers to use with a Free DCSW Platform, and risk losing clients that prolly pay upwards of 4 to 5 Figures for their Professional Training Software.
