REDEYE_CVW-66 Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 The grass on the airfield is so high, that it in fact clips through the Spitfire wings when it sits on the ground. It seems close to knee height. The grass of airbases should not be this long, and a third of its current lenght would be plenty. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nealius Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 +1 I was thinking this the other day. The grass at airfields is way too tall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basco1 Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 +1 Agreed.....somebody needs to get the big sit on 'Briggs and Stratton' out on those airfields,military airfield are particularly kept ultra short. I concur,there are places as Redeye has pointed out where the grass is knee high.....it' just not realistic. 3 Chillblast Fusion Cirrus 2 FS Pc/Intel Core i7-7700K Kaby Lake CPU/Gigabyte Nvidia GTX 1070 G1 8GB/Seagate 2TB FireCuda SSHD/16GB DDR4 2133MHz Memory/Asus STRIX Z270F Gaming Motherboard/Corsair Hydro Series H80i GT Liquid Cooler/TM Warthog with MFG 10cm Extension/WINWING Orion Rudder Pedals (With Damper Edition)/TrackiR5/Windows 11 Home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappie Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 I reported a tall grass issue in Caucasus a few days ago. I thought this issue was local to Caucasus. Can you please confirme this Channel issue is brand new? It would mean all grassy terrains are affected. 1 Don't accept indie game testing requests from friends in Discord. Ever.

REDEYE_CVW-66 Posted October 17, 2021 Author Share Posted October 17, 2021 Just land on one of the grass fields with a Spit and look out side the pit. Lympne for example. But the wing-clipping is not the main issue- the grass is still too long regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basco1 Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 It has,and as of today it's still ridiculously long see screenshot,this is the state of Manston's grass.......not a game breaker,but equally not really realistic with due respect. So yes,it would be nice to address this please ED......when at all possible. 1 Chillblast Fusion Cirrus 2 FS Pc/Intel Core i7-7700K Kaby Lake CPU/Gigabyte Nvidia GTX 1070 G1 8GB/Seagate 2TB FireCuda SSHD/16GB DDR4 2133MHz Memory/Asus STRIX Z270F Gaming Motherboard/Corsair Hydro Series H80i GT Liquid Cooler/TM Warthog with MFG 10cm Extension/WINWING Orion Rudder Pedals (With Damper Edition)/TrackiR5/Windows 11 Home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YSIAD_RIP Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Bump. Would love to know if there is a setting that makes the grass shorter. 1 Do not own: | F-15E | JF-17 | Fw 190 A-8 | Bf 109 | Hardware: [ - Ryzen7-5800X - 32GB - RX 6800 - X56 HOTAS Throttle - WINWING Orion 2 F16EX Grip - TrackIR 5 - Tobii 5C - JetPad FSE - ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screamadelica Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Nine men went to mow, went to mow a meadow....or at least an airfield. Maybe we could have a new asset to the ground units - lawn mower brigade. I'd love to see shorter grass, would look better as well as not poking through the wings. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slippa Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 …Or the fuselage. I wouldn’t mind sit down mowers, maybe little vintage tractors for WWII airfields. Even better, active wear and tear on the ground. The more we taxi out, the more we make a path. That’d be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAXsenna Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 (edited) Yeah, ED can team up with Lawnmower Simulator. Or maybe they can turn Goat Simulator into Sheep Simulator.

koen330 Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 +1 We all want DCS to be a simulator as realistic as possible. All modules study level, etc. Flight characteristics as close as possible to the real aircraft, etc. The long grass kills this completely, especially on grass strips for warbirds. If the grass would be this tall in reality, not a single plane would be able to operate on this field, certainly not with heavy payload. Please make the grass shorter on landing strips. It can be nice and long for off-field helicopter operations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
