REQUEST: Low poly shadows for some MOD aircrafts...
« on: October 10, 2014, 07:16:15 AM »

Hi all!
I would like to request a lowpoly shadows for some of the mod aircrafts,
for example - F8F, A7M2, La-9/11 etc...

Because for me shadows of these aircrafts make a sensetive drop of the fps
and they are showing only partialy, making such a errort lines in the log:

Code: [Select]

...etc

This hapens because of the not high-quality graphic card of my laptop,
I don't think that playing with the "perfect" setting should be a requiroment for some mods :-X :D

Here are example screenshots...





...I know that the season is very unusual for the Reppuu :D :))
and I hope that somebody ever faced this and want to have a solution mod, too.

Thanks for attention!

I think your problem is with the configuration of your game ...

In my game I have the "perfect" mode ... but not for the shadows.
And I've never had this kind of problem.

For example my FPS are doing well, but still the shadows show only partially, too bad. The Shadow model does not need to be the most detailed, the level of LOD 4/5 is still good enough.

Try to play not with only your own A7M, but set a whole squadron of them...
Your fps will mostly go home...

If you want to experiment with low poly shadow meshes then open the msh file in a text editor and copy/paste the shadows section from the LOD2 section into the LOD0 and LOD1 sections.

While you guys are worried about shadows, I'd give quite a bit just to be able to run perfect mode at all...  :(

If anyone knows how to make that happen i'll be in your debt... eternally. Mods made this old game a new world for me and my brothers, but perfect mode would be the best thing since Il-2 Sturmovik.
