[MOD] Damage decal improvements(October13, 2022 updated)

[Oyster_KAI]

Some planes in the game use the ancient aliasing texture, I simply anti-aliased it.
Please back up the Normal map. If you forget, it is included in the package.
include 11 planes: A-20, C-47A, B-25, B-26, Me-410A, Ju-88C6, IL-2M43, P-51D15, Spitfire Mk.XIV, Tempest Mk.Vs2, Typhoon Mk.Ib.

Nice!!!

Visual damage decals are definitely the worst thing in this game..I've been saying it for years and been slagged down for it for years..

Absolutely, one of my most waited for improvements is the "Dynamic Visual Damage" that they teased recently...

@Oyster_KAI Just wondered if this still works? Folder structure in the mod is like data\graphics\planes\plane name\textures but looking at the game folder structure there is no longer a textures folder under data\graphics\planes\plane name

 

Thanks

Did you reinstalled whole game?
For me, textures folder still there.
The damage decal should be worked, but need to check.?

Sorry - my bad. Trying to work and fix mods is a very bad idea. I was looking at the wrong copy of the data folder ?

I was just looking at the files for this mod and comparing them to the stock game files post 5.002 and now that DVD is fully implemented. I haven't compared all of them but for example the lagg3s29 & IL2M42 file in the mod looks very similar to those in the stock game to my non graphic artist eyes. Did the files covered by your mod get redone by 5.002? ie did your mod end up part of the stock game so just like your cockpits there is no longer a need for this mod?

Something is not compatible with version 5.002, I will check and try to update this mod, now it's better to remove this mod first to avoid wrong graphics.

I will continue to test and try to find better results.
