Slayer 1-1 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 (edited) Hello there, Since a month ago I've been experiencing a strange visual error with the plane stelae (Not sure if that's the term in english) looking like pops of smoke. Already tried using the repair option with no luck. I'm using reshade with 4 effects: SMAA, FXAA an a couple of color temperature filter. 2 friends were experiencing the same visual error whitout ussing reshade and a 4th had no visual problems, all in the same flight. Thanks and let's see if this can be fixed, have a nice day Edited December 15, 2020 by Deivid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello, I've never seen this before. All three of you should compare your settings with this fourth guy. Since you've already tried a repair, I suggest you try to bypass your current settings: Rename your "C:\Users\Saved Games\DCS" (or DCS.openbeta) folder into "DCS_backup". Run the game(you'll have default settings and controls) and see if contrails are back to normal. Don't accept indie game testing requests from friends in Discord. Ever.

Flappie Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 OK. You can then revert the change (remove the new folder and rename the previous one). You should try a cleanup and repair. 1 Don't accept indie game testing requests from friends in Discord. Ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellbat Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Do you have an AMD graphics card? I noticed something similar on my machine and found that the maximum tessellation level was set to off in AMD Radeon Software. Setting this to 16x fixed it for me. Maybe there is a similar tessellation setting in the nVidia driver if you have another card? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
