Speaking of bad weather; do anyone knows what happens if a jet is struck by lightning? Is it affected at all?

I got popped a couple years ago. One hit caused 21 different burns into the airplane. Actually, we caused the discharge.

Meanwhile in Russia...

Really hope weather effects will be reworked soon. Visual immersion means so much in such simulators and rain/bad weather can make for such incredible scenes and emotions.

Absolutely.

 

I want not to see around in a storm. Further, I want to be hit by a missile because of corrupted image in Shkval, etc... (Not joking...) :)

Just watched some totally immersive videos of FSX (with all the extra payware/mods) and I have to say that it puts DCS to shame with regards to immersive, realistic visuals. Not only does it look so much better, it PERFORMS better.

 

Bring on the new rendering engine because even though I really like the realistic flight models of DCS, but the horrible visuals, and terrible performance (the performance of DCS seems to get worse with every patch) is really putting me off.

I must say I would like to see a working EDGE terrain engine and a stable dedicated server before any weather improvements at all.

 

That would be a fair statement about anything on the wish list.

I have only just seen this thread but I have to say... Plus 1.000.000!!! Raindrops on the canopy would add a whole new element, combined with proper vapour effects. Vibrations during G and EDGE they would ultimately help bring the visual realism of dcs into line with the realistic systems and flight models we already have and make DCS World even better for it.

 

 

Original posters video in HD how it should be....

 

 

 

 

we were treated to such effects on a pretty basic level on the odd FSX aircraft, most notably the Lotus sim L-39.

 

 

 

 

I think we need this

Please ED, this make sim's so realistic... :/ We need that!!! smile.gif

 

How did you even find that lol, looks awesome though, now imagine streaming across your canopy while you're trying to put your DCS: F-18 on the deck ;) bliss!

Speaking of raindrops, this is pretty Awesome from the soloTurk F-16 on a rainy day, gets quite heavy towards the end.

Nowadays people fighting with FPS issues, so I don't think that this effect can be done in this engine. And I hope we will not get cheap solutions in the name of raindrops effect.

 

And on the other side, (in my opinion of course), if we can see glass damages (bullet holes, cracks) on windows, that means we can see freezing and fogging window effects easily...
