shadows projected in the cockpit ?
« on: November 02, 2020, 07:34:40 AM »

While watching a video of the Cliff of Dover Blitz North African expansion, I noticed that the shadows projected in the cockpit offered a lot of realism. I wondered if this would be possible on IL2 1946 and BAT.
Is it possible?

... this question, about dynamic shadows, has been asked for years, and unfortunately this would mean hacking the (now very old) game engine code, and not only that, rebuild all cockpits ...  :-[

A modder, Freddy, tried to give some sort of dynamic shadows effects, by editing mat files, like in his Bf109E3 and Dewoitine D520 cockpits ... ;)
