Tree_Beard Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Any video you see of an aircraft crashing into the ground, it always produces a huge fireball and a cloud of black smoke as all the fuel ignites. In DCS, the jet does explode but it doesn't look very realistic. Maybe a bit of a morbid topic, but I think there is room for more realism here. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowie Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 A more persistent burning smoke trail, say, 10-15 seconds, instead of the current, what, five? TIA. Bowie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshZeCorgi Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Agreed, combat-related effects such as bullet impacts on ground and water, explosion effects on water, smoke from destroyed vehicles need a brush up, I feel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_Romeo Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 I am pretty sure we will see much better effects soon since they was shown in the 2021 and beyond video My skins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowie Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 The inflight burning engine smoke is twice what the burning fuel is. Just make it more persistent, say 15 seconds instead of 5. Bowie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
