rge75 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 On the youtube videos, I always see that the Mi-8 has mirrors. But I don't have mirrors on my Mi-8. Did Belsimtek remove them or is this another variant of the Mi-8?

Simicro Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Try the M key. Please note that the mirrors consume fps. - Tony - .

rge75 Posted July 16, 2017 Author Share Posted July 16, 2017 Thanks, but this didn't work. It's not like in the Spitfire where the mirrors are there but just not enabled by default. They're completely missing (see screenshot). The first screenshot, how it is on youtube videos. The 2nd and 3rd how it is on my PC. It's like somebody unscrewed the mirrors on my chopper....

ebabil Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 and i try to remove them because of fps hit but can't do it. how did you do that? iirc, pressing m key is suppose to turn on/ off and remove the mirros as a cycle but i can only turn it on and off, and off state looks ugly as hell. https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2724512&postcount=592 FC3 | UH-1 | Mi-8 | A-10C II | F/A-18 | Ka-50 III | F-14 | F-16 | AH-64 | Mi-24 | F-5 | F-15E| F-4| Tornado Persian Gulf | Nevada | Syria | NS-430 | Supercarrier // Wishlist: CH-53 | UH-60 Youtube MS FFB2 - TM Warthog - CH Pro Pedals - Trackir 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simicro Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 It seems that there is (used to be?) an option in the DCS GUI, but I don't recall / find it anymore - Tony - .

rge75 Posted July 16, 2017 Author Share Posted July 16, 2017 Just checked the "Special" ribbon in the options, but there's nothing about the mirrors. @ebabil, no idea how I did this. It was without mirrors by default. I simply bought the module and installed it using the "dcs_updater install MI-8MTV2" command. But I just dug a bit deeper... in the options.lua, I noticed that there's an general option ["mirrors"] = false, So I changed it to true and the mirrors were pressent. Like Simicro mentioned, there's even an option in the GUI. It's under the ribbon "Game" (not sure if it's called like this in the english version). So if you want to remove the mirrors from the Mi-8, completely disable mirros in the game section of the options.

Art-J Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Yep, a couple of patches ago BST made mirror 3D model appear/disappear depending on global mirror setting in game options. i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10.

Askerov24 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Just go to settings and enable/disable the mirrors. But it will affect all aircraft.
