I'm so happy that the rear mirror now works, somehow I had missed the info  ]headbang[

As a BAT 3.8.1 user, here is a piece of info that was not very obvious to me (despite several hints posted here), so it may help others who missed it too: in order to have beautiful cirrus clouds in BAT, you need to enable, via jsgme, one of the DEFSKIES version (the one that fits what you're flying).

Thanks for the continuous improvements slibenli !

(minor bug that needs checking: white runway lights have a white square surround)

There are still issues with enabled mirror though. E.g. Wrongly shaded buildings and trees (not  just in the mirror but the actual view out of the cockpit). And there is no guarantee that it might not break again ;)

Which belongs to which thread? ;)
Preferably with a screenshot.

The newest build has a bunch of fixes and improvements - among them are:

  • fixed: specular light on solid objects and diffuse light on transparent objects is too reddish when the sun is low
  • generally improved cloud lighting (transparent shader)
  • fixed missing canopy/window glare (transparent shader)

Sometimes there are still wrongly lit clouds:

I've added a simple mechanism for randomizing cirrus textures:
IL2GE will now look if the folder "il2ge_random_cirrus_textures" in your IL-2 folder exist and randomly pick one of the textures inside it.
A new random texture is picked each time a map is loaded.

I promised myself that I would visit here every 2-3 weeks. I was wrong! Every new version shows progress. Bravo!

Once again Slibenli - incredible work!
The random cirrus feature is amazing.

I just selected a dozen or so of my favourite "non-alpha" textures and copied them into the "il2ge_random_cirrus_textures"  folder - couldn't be simpler.

Works perfectly

Thanks very much  ;D
