Bandit. Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 well i look at it differently. i look at the map as a canvas on which you can make your missions. in the case the more stuff it has the better. scenery is good looking and has a very good potential for mission making. another good thing is that i can pronounce the names of the cities!

BBQ Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 EDGE Update Clarification Request After the latest update from Wags, I wondered if anyone could clarify the statements about ability to project the map on a globe. My particular question: will the coordinate "over-lapping" problem found in current map no longer be a problem with the introduction of EDGE? (not will it be fixed in the Caucasus map -- just will the problem still be there for future maps like Nevada). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joey45 Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 As EDGE is made from scratch it shouldn't be a problem. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

HungaroJET Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 (edited) This is a 300x300 km area that includes three functional airfields: Nellis AFB, Creech AFB, and Groom Lake (aka Area 51 / Dreamland) Matt, any chance to see some other airfields more ?

Dgamax Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 (edited) What is EDGE exactly ? A new engine for DCS ? [EDIT] Ok found it sorry for my newb question :< http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=80468 What is EDGE? EDGE, dubbed internally, Eagle Dynamic Graphic Engine, is a new Image Generator (IG) built from the ground up that allowed for numerous benefits to the DCS environment. Can't wait to see how it looks :) Edited October 12, 2013 by Dgamax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chromium Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 What is EDGE exactly ? A new engine for DCS ? try with search function ;) 1 Author of DSMC, mod to enable scenario persistency and save updated miz file Stable version & site: https://dsmcfordcs.wordpress.com/ Openbeta: https://github.com/Chromium18/DSMC The thing is, helicopters are different from planes. An airplane by it's nature wants to fly, and if not interfered with too strongly by unusual events or by a deliberately incompetent pilot, it will fly. A helicopter does not want to fly. It is maintained in the air by a variety of forces in opposition to each other, and if there is any disturbance in this delicate balance the helicopter stops flying; immediately and disastrously.

Psyrixx Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 Matt, any chance to see some other airfields more ? After the map is released, it is quite possible that we will expand it, add additional detail, new airfields, etc. as we did for the Black Sea map. The answer you sought was in the same post as the line you originally quoted.

If you mean that in-game coordinates and bearings don't match with real world coordinates and bearings, then that should get fixed by using curved ground.

I was hinting to get a bit of that extra brilliance in the mapversion (center) in a smart way:music_whistling: without killing the fps. Would love a vivid lighting there. Even with edge I don't think we will get that sort of specular and I don't think its really possible yet to model the lighting of that sort of variation of colors. The specular is what what makes it fantastic. EDGE will get the job done though. There are literally a trillion light bulbs in Vegas. I am personally hoping to model the earth in DCS if it's possible might actually be a money making project? Anyways I would also like to see Edwards AFB but I see Nevada as a demo for the edge engine and I can't wait.
