Landing strip visibility

[TDK1044]

So, I'm having a blast playing this game. I have a question. I find that, depending on the time of day, the landing strips are either visible and easy to spot, or not visible at all until you're right on top of them. I totally get that this was how it was, and that identifying the landing strip would have been hard sometimes, even when you know where it is on the map, but is there a file that could be edited to make them just a little bit more visible for the casual gamer like me?

Nope.

That answers that then. ??

Personally, I don't care whether that's how it was; at midday it's next to impossible to see the landing strip and it's already challenging enough to land some of the aircraft on landing strips that are easy to discern. As far as I'm concerned, it's a specific terrain detail where TF should forgo realism for the sake of practicality and use a texture for those desert air strips that contrasts better with the surrounding sand.

It would be nice to add visible landing strips as a realism option.

Seriously.  It's ridiculous.

I’m not a great pilot, but most of the time I find it really difficult to find the landing strip. I frequently land right next to it. ?

I’m hopeful that the announced “Planned Future Improvements to DESERT WINGS - TOBRUK” will also improve airfield visibility at high sun angles.

 

“- Addition of improvements to terrain graphics.  These will include the adding of a third Level of Detail for the terrain... to allow the players to see more detail at medium altitudes, as well as the addition of improved textures for game tiles outside of the main areas, and the addition of desert grasses and possibly more desert rock formations.

 

We also hope to improve the tessellation effects in the game as part of these improvements.

 

We hope to roll this out in the next few months.”

I really hope that they consider the suggestion.

I just dropped into my RAF campaign in Blitz. It was so nice to be able to identify the airfield and the landing strip. ??
