Cedaway Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 (edited) Some quotes that has to be recalled,... As has been stated several times before, the map itself is almost done. The long delay is due to development of a new rendering engine that is capable of rending the this map and its very high level of detail at acceptable frame rates. Developing a new rendering engine is a very long and complex matter. There have also been some delays due to some changes in staffing and the team having to work on some other projects in parallel. When there is new news, there will be an announcement. At this time, given the work on the engine, it is not even possible to run the map to take screen shots. A few items to reiterate: 1- Much of the Nevada map is done, but aspects of it could certainly change between now and release. 2- The original effort was done by a third party, but for various reasons, that effort did not work out and the Eagle team basically had to re-start it from scratch. 3- Due to the massive number of ground objects, elevation mesh detail, and texture sizes, a new image generator (IG) had to to be created in order to run it at more than single digit frame rates. Creating a new IG is a huge undertaking and it takes a lot of time. More so than anything else, this has been the reason behind the delay. 4- There has been no change in our plan to make this map available for free to those that purchased the A-10C beta. 5- Given the nature of the map, I would imagine that most missions will revolve around training, but certainly large Red Flag type campaigns are also possible. 6- We have no ETA at this time. When there is a change to any of the above, there will be official news of it. Edited April 19, 2013 by Cedaway error in edit DCS Wish: Turbulences affecting surrounding aircraft...

BigBANGtheory Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I think PhysX would be too polarising as it would exclude a large chunk of the market who don't have PsysX hardware. PhysX 3 can run on the CPU, you're not locked into an Nvidia GPU to utilise it... at least this is how I understand it from the Arma 3 perspective. Naturally there is a cost to the CPU in doing this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaspeR32 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 In the coming weeks I will also have information and images that I can share regarding the status of the Nevada map, discuss more about EDGE features, and fill you in on other future maps that are already in work or planned. Thanks, Matt ______ I wonder if the new engine will make the earth round instead of Flat. That would be great for longer missions, higher altitudes right?

Oznerol256 Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 I wonder if the new engine will make the earth round instead of Flat. That would be great for longer missions, higher altitudes right? Would this make such a difference? Well, i know in real life you have to fly a slightly longer distance if you fly high instead of low, however, you can fly faster since the drag is much lower and your engines save a lot of fuel. In DCS, you get all the advantages and disadvantages except of the slightly longer range. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobek Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 Would this make such a difference? Yes, there are all kinds of distortion effects happening towards the edges of the current map due to curvature of earth not being modelled. Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa!
