B25Mitch Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 If this clip is anything to go by, we're going to finally see those great looking fire and smoke animations not only on the ground, but in the air too. Perhaps we'll never see cylindrical fire again!
[DBS]TH0R Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Good stuff! Miles ahead of what we currently have. Lets hope we won't have to wait for 1.2.5. before we get it. :) P8Z68 | 2500k @ 4.5 | GTX 1080Ti | 2x8 GB @ 1600 | TM Hog (extended 7cm) & MFG Crosswind (S/N 007) | TIR v5 WWII bomber formations | DCS P-51D: [TEST] TO distance / gross weight / temperature
s3n0 Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Would be great. Especialy with new explosions, dust, smoke on the ground :)

B25Mitch Posted April 26, 2013 Author Posted April 26, 2013 Everything looks good in black and white <shrug> If you want to see what the effect looks like, just set a ship on fire in the current version - all those effects are in the sim already - they're just not being used to their full potential.

B25Mitch Posted April 26, 2013 Author Posted April 26, 2013 I believe it was somewhere between 40 and 60 (GTX 570 1.25gb). Try it on your system - I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. In my experience the new smoke effects have never caused a significant impact on framerates, and nor should we expect this, assuming they've been competently coded. It's a real shame that Combat Flight Simulator 3, a game released 11 years ago, still has better looking aerial particle effects than DCS. I'll be happy to see that cease to be true.

Frogisis Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 (edited) New particle effetcs? [squeal] If you want to see what the effect looks like, just set a ship on fire in the current version - all those effects are in the sim already - they're just not being used to their full potential. It's true, I copied the ship fire .lua over (almost) all the other fire effects, and with some tweaks everything looks so much better. I can actually set a city on fire now. Can't seem to find any files that affect the aircraft fires, though, either in the air or once they crash. I want some huge fireballs like you see on The YouTube.

Witchking Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 If you guys notice...the fire when the aircraft explodes/goes down is more similar to these ship and land vehicle fires. No more cylindrical/bitmap fires. :D yay! Looking promising.

How much lagg do you get for creating these massive fires? FPS drop?
Witchking Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 Beautiful cockpit. wow!! But that landing model at the end...sooo terrible. Jerk and stick to the ground. Man! The next big thing would be to give all aircraft atleast a semi-AFM. Improve the ground handling.
