razo+r Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 What kind of improvements have been made to the model? It still sits at around 48K tris... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdstrike Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 i guess those improvements were only meant for the cockpit textures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birkenmoped Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Hm... As notes in prervious newsletters, both the Bf 109 K-4 and Fw 190 D-9 have also gotten outstanding improvements to their cockpits and external models to bring it to DCS World 2.5 standards. With the huge updates to the P-51D, Fw 190 D-9, and Bf 109 K04, and all the time and resources invested, the price of each warbird will return to $49.99; however, all three aircraft will take part in our Winter 2018 sale. These are free updates to existing owners. https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3729121&postcount=175 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Tigre. Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 What kind of improvements have been made to the model? It still sits at around 48K tris... Yes, the 3D model is always the same ...:mad: :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdstrike Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 i tried to have a closer look...but without having a direct comparison screenshot or anything, its hard to judge if they changed anything on the 3d model...what i assume what they meant with "improvements to their cockpits and external models" is not actual the 3d model, but also new reflective textures making use of the new render techniques. the canopies do look really good now from outside views especially in low sunglight conditions.

Here you have some screens: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=183358 Well they did change the textures but they also wrote that they improved the model. I'm now just hoping they forgot to include that in the update amd that they will actually deliver what they wrote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf8312 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 I see big improvements, might be more apparent in VR though ------------ 3080Ti, i5- 13600k 32GB VIVE index, VKB peddals, HOTAS VPC MONGOOSE, WARTHOG throttle, BKicker, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrohde Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 I see big improvements, might be more apparent in VR though Yep, the PBR textures alone are stunning. They also removed the fake, baked-on shadows. Plus, in the FW-190 Dora they finally fixed the issue of the stick - while being pushed forward - clipping into the dashboard. So yeah, good stuff!
