and when using the interior lighting, this also illuminates the exterior of the tank ... even with the hatch and visor closed ... except for the commander hatch, but if I remember my physics lessons, the light does not appear. don't have fun making curves, she goes in a straight line ...

Brief description: Sopwith Camel Windscreen Frame Shadow

Detailed description, conditions: Just noticed this last night. Am unsure whether this is something that's come about during recent updates or whether it's been around longer unnoticed. Saw that when I was heading home near sunset that the windscreens frame on the Camel does not cast an shadow. Some parts of the frame (the rim and bolts) do appear to cast an shadow but the main bulk of the frame does not cast any shadow. You can see this in evidence on the wooden strut visible in the screenshot I've posted. I've also attached screenshot showing the graphics settings that I've got in use should that have any assistance.

Detailed description, conditions: Tall grass all over the airfield, including a runway, also AI is having problems with taxing on it (spins are not rare). The easiest way to reproduce this is to start first Bodenplatte scripted mission - BF 109G14 - Defensive Patrol, where we start parked on Butzweilerhofar.

Found this overlap just West of the bridge in Timochny, approximately 1km NW of Velikie Luki. The overlap is present in all templates. Rotating the block in question from 99 to 189 resolves the road issue, but creates problems with the shadows on the terrain. Vehicles are not blocked by the geometry.

Brief Description: Koln Road Bridge- height for tanks incorrect

Detailed Description:  Panther Tank was travelling towards me. I was situated on the bridge but on the up ramp. The panther came at me but instead of heading down hill, kept going and thus seemed to levitate, as if the road he was driving on was still under his tracks.

Additional assets (videos, screenshots, logs): See attached screen shot.

[No_85_Gramps]

In the FME if you load the Stalingrad map, summer textures, and load the ALL AIRFIELDS group most airfields have two translator icons on them. First picture shows just after loading group. If you select an icon and then move it away it reveals a second icon underneath, as seen in the second picture.

 

 

It causes the map to display overlapping names.

Thank you, I will ask you a couple of questions: did you record the track? or you have the mission? we need the exact place where this happened to recreate the conditions.

It was on the Advance and Secure Server. I have attached the downloaded files for the mission. I do not have a track. I have also attached a screen shot of the location of the bridge and direction of travel for the Panther. 

I have also tried to edit the mission file and place my rough position and the location (red line and x) and of the Panther (blue line)

 

If I can help any more please let me know.

Different Visuality on Front and Rear Depots while high altitude bombing:

hi folks,

The visuality of Depot targets is accidentally very difficult. Sometimes I can see them very early (some minutes before dropping bombs), sometimes they pop up just the moment I am over it. I didn’t find a rule why can see the targets more early or not, it seems not depends my graphic settings or the attack altitude.

Do you have any ideas because the accidentally visuality/non visuality?

 

Best regards from the German Bomber command ?

When the engine is started, the formation lights are turned off, then turned on again. As you left the toggle switches, they are brought into this state after starting the engine. The engineers will look at this situation with the formation lights, thank you.

Those look like artifacts, it means that your gpu is damaged.

Try to clean dust away from your gpu fans.
There's much chance that you will need a new gpu though.

 

have a nice day.

Brief description: Parts of the User Interface Are No Longer Opaque.

Detailed description, conditions: Just updated onto 4.603 and noticed that when using the map parts of this (the icons and etc) are semi-transparent, and I can see what's behind them. I've also noticed similar things with the quick mission map and the hangar graphics. Have restarted game and computer after noticing this, issue remained.

Your neighbor, wife, kids weren't playing Pink Floyd were they? I have never seen that or anything like it.  It could be a Radeon thing along with drivers, I'm using nvidia and as stated, I have never seen this or a post of anything like it. 

Try reverting back to last good drivers and see if it goes away. Last resort, delete your Startup.config file and let it regenerate..

 

Cheers and good luck

Hoss

 

p.s. Have you ever tried using a driver cleaner program before you install new drivers?.  I still have the old Driver Cleaner, you can't find it anymore but there are some good ones out there.  I use the nvidia version of this tweak guide, it talks about removal, cleaning, installation and tweaks, + advanced tweaks.

? I didn´t know that this bug is memory to Pink Floyd and their album The Wall?

 

Maybe, I solved it, because my Il-2 files were broken after last pacht. I checked folders by Steam Integrity check, instaled fix and problem probably disappierd.

 

I was trying verified this solution in cocpit my Il-2, but I was shot down by Bf109 close to front line.

Don't you just hate it when that happens, no respect for the guy trying to get things fixed, all they see is a fat juicy target flying straight and level.....

Glad to hear you got it sorted.

This is not a bug, this is how the sun rendering algorithm works.
