Caucasus Map Texture DLC by Starway

 

 

This DLC is a complete retexturing of the existing DCS World Caucasus map to provide a new and improved look and feel. The objective of this DLC is not just to create more modern graphics, but to also make the map more resemble this geographic region. This has been accomplished by basing most of the textures on satellite images of the Caucasus region. Specially, the fields and grass areas much better match this region than the default map textures.

 

Beyond that, a great deal of time and effort has done into creating new building textures. They are high resolution now and are also based on the actual region. This is also true for the trees, surface textures beneath urban areas, and of course the mountains. These are remarkable changes to giving this map a huge level of improvement.

 

This DLC also contains features that are less apparent, such as: all the lua files (files for terrain configuration) has been improved, better road textures, updated noise and clutter textures, and the border textures between fields.

 

 

 

Caucasus Map Texture DLC by Starway Features:

 

 

– Noise/base textures in for all seasons

 

– Overall HD building textures for all building except airports

– Completely new field and grass textures for all seasons based on satellite images of the Caucasus region

– Tree textures for all seasons with a volumetric look

– Mountain textures based on satellite images for all seasons

– Distant terrain textures for all seasons

 

– New textures/noise for all cities, towns, and industrial areas for all seasons

– Border textures for all seasons

– New road textures for all seasons

 

– Adjusted terrain configuration files

 

 

It will cost $ 9.99.

 

Happy flying!

It would be nice to see a comparison between the DLC and the Northern Europe Mod.

Very nice work Starway but as Caucasus is part of the free base game it really should be free. I don't approve of a model where you (ED) sell a cosmetic update for the free map that is meant to bring new customers in.

How soon? Anyway, first day buy for me!

 

I can't tell for sure but the DLC has already been submitted to the team for publication. Means it won't take too long.

Maybe a stupid question but do the new textures have any noticeable impact on frame rate?

 

No framedrops on my system. I had even better frame rates with the modified config.

As you can see in the trailer, there are some updated light maps of the buildings included.

The new texture set was created from scratch. So there is not much left of the Northern Europe Mod :)
