In the latest build tree shadows are back  :)

Edit: And now there is Haze/Fog.
It's currently hard-coded to about 20km visibility at sea level.
I'd welcome suggestions how to configure it and/or modify it at run time.

In extremely clean air in Arctic or mountainous areas, the visibility can be up to 240 km
And normal - 50-100 km visibility distance...
Maybe disable it?

Entering in the landscape engine discussion, i would like to ask a question that disturbs me since the most early days i started to play Il-2: It's possible to modify the sky rendering for real stars positions in the sky, based in real celestial dome rotating according to time (earth's rotation movement) and based in the latitude of the map (DECLIN parameter)?

It would be great to give immersion to night missions.

With Storbror's time acceleration mod which goes to 256X, it's weird to see the Moon drift across the sky while the stars remain fixed in place. Even if the star field is not accurate, at least having them revolve about the sky would be a step forward.

I know that the maximum visibility can be much higher.
That's why I'm looking for ways to configure it.

I'm simulating two haze/fog layers:

A thinner layer that extends roughly up to 3km height.
This could be could be configured depending on IL2s weather mode (clear/cloudy/hazy/etc.).

And a thicker ground fog layer which extends to 300m height.
It should be possible to configure this independently - I don't yet know by which means.
Suggestions welcome ;)

EDIT: One idea I had, is to add a java interface to modify these settings - so it would be up to the java coders to to make full use of the fog parameters.

BumpH experiments:




Hmm this will be more complicated than I hoped ...

Original:


IL2GE:


In the original the terrain bumps also cast shadows.

On last build error with try to render landscape (for example, on going from 2D-map on editor to 3D-map) https://www.mediafire.com/file/r6219hh0uld2s2l/il2ge.log/file

I know that the maximum visibility can be much higher.
That's why I'm looking for ways to configure it.

Oh. I'm sorry, I got it wrong

May be, use parameters of map load.ini (for example, Lapland map):
Code: [Select]
DECLIN = 72
PRESSURE    = 745
TEMPERATURE = 10
I'm not sure, that the fog parameters can be calculated from this data, but maybe ...

Fixed now.

That's not enough data I would say.
EDIT: I don't know - maybe some of the fog parameters might be derived from it.

Sorry for coming up with an issue on a less popular game version.
I've tested the latest builds on BAT and all work fine.
On Ultrapack however I'm having a problem with all builds and the log doesn't really help me much there:

The relevant part seems to be this:
Code: [Select]

From the log I understand that il2ge fails in this method:
Code: [Select]
void *getExport(const string &full_name)
{
  assert(g_initialized);

  cout<<"getExport: "<<full_name<<endl;

  try
  {
    auto &method = g_exports.at(full_name);
    cout<<"found export: "<<full_name<<endl;
    assert(*method.import_addr);
    return method.export_addr;
  }
  catch(...)
  {
    return nullptr;
  }
}
In particular, it fails at "assert(*method.import_addr);" and apparently this happens while it's checking the address of the native method "_Java_com_maddox_il2_engine_Render_prepareStates" in the C++ mangled alias "_Java_com_maddox_il2_engine_Render_prepareStates@8".
That method exists, it's in il2_core.dll.

No idea how to proceed from here on...

Hallo Mike,

blöde Frage (ich habe kein B.A.T.):

Was passiert wenn Du die il2_core.dll von B.A.T. ins UP3.2 verfrachtest.

Gruß, Gerhard  :)
