BS2 module and shadows

[Corrigan]

So I just installed the BS2 1.2.0 module into World, and I'm quite sure my cockpit shadows now look uglier (lower res), in both the Ka-50 and in the Hog. I've verified that the shadow settings are still on high. Any ideas?

Did you use the old settings folder or did you remove/backup the old settings and use new dcs wolrd generate settings?

are you referring to this?:

Strange windscreen shadows in 1.2.0

It will be fixed in the upcoming patch.

I'm not completely sure what you mean. I didn't change any settings at all. This was the progression of events:

 

Been playing World with A-10 for months, with shadows on.

Bought BS today, installed, and reacted to what I thought was an unusually low shadow res.

Hopped into an A-10 and thought I saw the same thing.

I then went into the options and checked that the shadows were still set to high.

 

Is it possible that the BS installation somehow changed the resolution of the shadows on the high setting, or am I imagining things?

 

 

EDIT: Peter, nope, I'm well acquainted with that bug, and that's not what I mean. :)

Dont think too hard, just remove or place your current settingsfolder somewhere else on the computer and start up DCS again and set the settings so new settings will be generated.

Ok, I get you now. I tried that, and it's the same (low res shadows). I'm thinking now maybe I'm mistaken -- Obviously the shadows look better or worse depending on the angle at which they're cast, and I might have been examining a particularly bad situation (the first A-10 instant action mission).
