Vinny002 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Hi, guys! I'm not 100% sure, If you go up high enough in DCS Flaming Cliffs3, the sky will be black? Yesterday, in DCS Flaming Cliffs 3, I got up to 91,000 feet and the blue sky is almost black! Thanks! Cheers, Vincent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

=Mac= Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Open the door, Hal.... The Hornet is best at killing things on the ground. Now, if we could just get a GAU-8 in the nose next to the AN/APG-65, a titanium tub around the pilot, and a couple of J-58 engines in the tail...

Vinny002 Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 Hi, guys! Here is the screenshot of the very dark blue sky at the altitude of 84,300 feet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny002 Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 Hi, Tigercat! Oh, I didn't know I have an in game screenshot button. I took that photo from the ipad. @Blackwolf, yes, I consider myself an astronaut when I go up to 84,300 feet. What is the highest altitude you have gone up to in FC3? Thanks! Cheers, Vincent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lxsapper Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 It's normal for the sky to be dark up in those altitudes. You are neearing space and the remaining atmosphere you have between you and space "vacuum" is quite thin. The sky is blue because of sun light reflecting off of our atmosphere, up there there's a lot less molecules for light to go through and reflect off until it reaches your eyes.

Nume Noctre Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Wow, did not know you could that high. I guess I am gonna give it a try to get above 100k feet altitude. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Check out my channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegue Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 It is an easier way to see that by F11 key (free view), or shooting an AIM-120 upward from high altitude. But flying an eagle there would surely be more fun (a bit tricky, though)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny002 Posted April 26, 2014 Author Share Posted April 26, 2014 Hi, Kesmonkey! 116,300 feet?? Holy mackerel! That is about 22 miles up! The sky in your screenshot is definitely black!! Cheers, Vincent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
