Mustang Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 (edited) These two textures were originally created by Mizzy a few years back, i've converted them to .dds for use in DCS World - simply extract the two files and insert them into your EffectTextures.zip file (located in DCS World\Bazar\Effects) remember to make a backup copy of your EffectTextures.zip beforehand incase you wish to revert to stock textures! I hope to get these introduced into DCS World in future (ED permitting!) Edited October 19, 2012 by Mustang

Mustang Posted October 19, 2012 Author Posted October 19, 2012 Yeah sorry guys, well it really is one of those mods that you really have to try for yourself to see the changes, however i'll attempt with a few screenshots - the emphasis is on the toning down of the effects, by default the rain and snow effects are too strong especially when moving at speed.
diveplane Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 nice job, but eagle really need to redo the rain and snow with some new effects, these are getting quite old now. https://www.youtube.com/user/diveplane11 DCS Audio Modding.

badger66 Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 Thank you Mustang , I'll give this a go . Does it help with FPS at all ?
Mustang Posted October 19, 2012 Author Posted October 19, 2012 I don't think it makes any difference at all to framerates, give it a go.
NRG-Vampire Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 I don't think it makes any difference at all to framerates, give it a go. Sorry for writing that but i prefer the old, stock effect. In the new snowflake density is too sparse. Smaller snowlakes are OK but need to be much more frequent on sceen.
rabbit102 Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 does anyone have the defailt ones. might want to go back
Mustang Posted October 19, 2012 Author Posted October 19, 2012 (edited) does anyone have the defailt ones. might want to go back Just make a backup copy of your original EffectTextures.zip file (it's only around 5mb) before you try the textures. edit: thanks for uploading the files PeterP.

Mustang Posted January 13, 2015 Author Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) Thread necro/bump :D this mod is still relevant and works well with current DCS World builds. Edited January 13, 2015 by Mustang
Milli Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 I have always used this mod. Looks better to me. Thanks Mustang.
JaBoG32_Prinzartus Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Has this been included into vanilla DCS meanwhile? Or is this Mod still a must have? What do you guys think, about it?
