!!!cockpit glass transparency bug!!!

Hi,

The problem about the glass is not solved yet with UH 1 and MI 8 helicopter. I've talked BelSimTek and I've written to the leader of DCS. They think there is no any problem.

UH 1 and MI 8 helicopters have no glass effect in outside view. It has been since DCS 2.5. It was not problem earlier. The glass was spectacular.

Earlier / the proper glass effect / :

Now / no any glass effect / :

I've written the creator of module. I've told them to check Gazelle helicopter glass effect because it is perfect.

Please help everyone so the error will be solved! Write your opinion on to this forum and support If you agree with me!

Thank you very much,

this is what i see on open beta.

outside is ok but inside; there is no glass at all

As you can see on the pictures the glass is just shineing when the sun reach it. It look like there is glass effect. BUT If the sun is not reach this area it looks like there is NO glass.

Yeah, I noticed the same as ebabil. From outside, you always see the glass. From inside....not really.

Real glass

yeah it can be better. i hope..

this one is from non updated release version. no glass at all. so i said it is better now compare to this one

...but shouldn't it have posted in the bug section? I doubt the devs will even notice it in the general thread.

i think he already had done this

when comparing to ka-50, it really needs some attention from the devs

both for huey and mi-8

I am sending error message and e-mail continuously to repair the error but there is NOT happend anything. Very sad this behave. The developer doesn't care about this fatal error. I think it is really scandalous!

I've made some photos from my morning fly. We can see the differences...

I don't know MI 8 and UH 1 why doesn't have this spectacular glass. Why don't you repair??

An external view on the glass is weird, but worse is that there is no glass in the cockpit!

Maybe bst team doesn't have this talent or tech

Ooor... they got other priorities right now.

I would not say there is no glass in the cockpit - depending on the lighting conditions you can see shadows casted on the glass...

The truth is that in the past the glass had some dirt specks, while now it is completely clean (as the muddy-glass-whiners wanted?).

Dirt is not ideal when they are not effective windshield wipers.

It would be enough subtle mirroring of the cockpit back to the glass.

I'll look at some footage of the actual Hue, maybe together we can figure something out.

the problem is not the dirt. glass reflections..

check other modules too like hornet canopy

I found out that the reflection is in the base already prepared, is now totally suppressed.

When you first attempt to highlight, the result is not very good.

It is in the package under the name UH1_glass_refl.dds.

Edit:

If anyone has a problem with clean glass, I created a little mirror in the cockpit.

Beta version for jsgme: https://www.dropbox.com/s/jhhej11ttbgjwh8/UH-1H%20Glass%20mirror.zip

Not to forget to switch in the menu special of the cockpit : Glass mirror

judging by this pic, there is still no reflection but some cracks

Cracks :), have you tried that at all?

Since the DCS 2.5 version has appeared the glass effect is not works well. There is NO glass effect. The problem is not solve with texture structure modify. Have to modify on the 3D model. The developer must solve this problem! I hope he reads this comment and will modify this problem on both of two model!

Befor the Gazelle helicopter had same problem but the developer repaired it.

Thank you,

I found some glas @ my huey:

But you need a very flat angle, to see the glas.

The devs just have to teak 1 to 2 values. Nothing more. If I would know, where to change the 2

values for fresnel and reflection, I think could fix that.

I found out that the reflection is in the base already prepared, is now totally suppressed.

When you first attempt to highlight, the result is not very good.

It is in the package under the name UH1_glass_refl.dds.

 

....

Sorry, but the way is NOT to tweak the texture for shading in e.g. Photoshop. The way is to tweak shader values to see more glass reflection and more fresnel.

If anyone can show me the glas-shader-file, I could have a look.

The external view is not so important for me, so the Absence of the windscreen solved :) the fine dust except the track of the wiper.
