DCS World environmental shaders mod

[Lizzard]

Will this work with the Mod Enabler 'JSGME' ?

 

EVERY mod works with JSGME..if the mod is not already in JSGME format you can do it by yourself (very easy). For Mustangs Mod...just create a Folder "Mustang sky and clouds" (or whateer you like) in your JSGME _Mods directory and copy the folders from Mustang`s mod in there

Thanks Lizzard,you learn something everyday,I appreciate your help mate :thumbup:

no shadow for clouds on the sea with this version v5.70.

also on my computer the luminosity is bigger .

 

Unless I'm reading 1st post wrong, there is version with shadows and one without, which are you using?

Dumb question, after all this work, which is great by the way, when EDGE finally comes out, will this all be for nothing at that point? Or will this still be a useful mod?

Nobody knows...we will see..but I guess most likely this mod in the current form will have no effect on EDGE or better..will not even work with it

This mod is purely for 1.2.xx and not for EDGE, 2.0.0 looks far far better than this mod could ever be :thumbup:

Thanks for the clarification Mustang

Hi Mustang,

 

Im not sure than the mod works in total with 1.2.16. Shadows works ok, but I see problem with clouds or my eyes are crazy? ;D

 

1.2.15:

 

 

1.2.16:

 

 

I don't see this "bright flashes effect" in 1.2.16, maybe its a time and conditions.

[Skulleader]

Thanks Yoyo, I wait with impatient the Mustang's response.

[Mustang]

I can't see what you're trying to show, clouds and shadows look exactly the same as earlier versions for me :dunno:

[Dauntless]

Maybe it's the angle. Not high enough to see the sun light on top of the clouds or a different time of day. :pilotfly:

I try with the two versions and I have not shadow for clouds on water .

[Mustang]

I'll investigate the cloud shadows on sea problem, first i need to check if this happens with stock shaders.

 

edit: please check new version 5.71 in first post.

Mustangs thanks the update!

 

All HDF 59th VAB's members use it!

[JG-1_Vogel]

I installed this last night, and with the HDR enabled (which I like personally) my horizon is REALLY bright to the point where it totally obscures the HUD display, I just can't read it. Is there a way to tweak the settings or is something like SweetFX mandatory for this mod?

[Falcon_S]

159th LoneWolf turn OFF HDR in sweetFX settings (if you use it). I use HDR NORMAL in DCS and no problem with bright / unreadable HUD.

[sport02]

it's ok now , thanks .

[Art-J]

Mustang, I've noticed that with the version 5.71, both medium and high water lost their nice deep blue colour, replaced by dull medium blue one. Is there a chance we'll get the darker tone back? I admit I preferred it :).

 

Question no.2 - there are two WaterEffect files in "no reflections" package. Which one should we use?

[Punisher74]

These .fx modifications are a progression from the original cloud shader mod, they now encompass the sky, clouds, terrain etc - be aware that this mod gets regular updates as new discoveries/tweaks are made!

 

See attachment below, installation is pretty straight forward - just unrar the package and copy the folders into the DCS World directory.

 

NOTE: these modifications are Integrity Check compatible with basically all servers so they're safe to use online.

 

 

If you're in the 104th can you provide a list of modifications that are are Integrity Check compatible, because it seems that every mod I do have that only affects look and feel of the game don't pass. Like the ground textures, f-15c HD cockpit, afterburner by star. Always cause fail the Integrity Check.

Raptor make sure your addon aircraft aren't installed and try again.

[Alpenwolf]

Thanks for the feedback guys :) I think i'll experiment with different cloud sizes next.

Do I need both files? What do you mean with "no reflections high water"?

Thanks

[Marioshata]

Thanks

 

Alpenwolf,

You need only one of the files

"no reflections high water" means all water reflections disabled for the HIGH water setting (DCS World's settings) for better FPS.

[Pâte]

Seems that the color of the water dont work anymore, which value have we got to change ?

[Mustang]

Updated first post with a big bold DO NOT USE WITH 1.5 :)

[Morpheus]

Will you update your mod for 1.5 ?
