In Directx 10 with fixes it doesn't seem to like the bloom very well, reckon it would be possible to replace the bump/specular to fix this?

 

Anyone come across this before?

 

Yes, looks like Bloom is turned on. Turn it off.

The amount of bloom can be altered in DX10, Dan, per Steve's doc:-

 

Bloom:

 

Extracted from Steve’s WordPress Site:-

It’s possible to adjust the bloom effect by editing the last few lines in General10.fxh and then recompiling the DX10 shaders. (Done by deleting the Shaders10 cache folder. C:\Users\{your username}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\FSX\ )

 

The lines in question are:-

 

#else

static const float fHdrSpecularScale = 1.11; ßChange this number. Larger increases bloom.

static const float fHdrEmissiveScale = 6.0;

static const float fHdrCopyScale = 4.25;

static const float fHdrModAlphaScale = 3.92;

#endif

 

This would alter it for all objects, however.

Yes, looks like Bloom is turned on. Turn it off.

 

Best regards,

I love this solution

 

Seriously, this is the only plane I have a problem with. Bloom is fine on everything else.

 

I'm wondering if anyone knows a technique or way to edit liveries or bump maps to make them react less with bloom. For the RV-7 it happens for all liveries, so does that mean it's a problem in the model, or do I still have a chance to fix it in user editable files?

In the configuration tool that comes with the Vans RV-7 there is a DirectX tab which allows you to select DX9 or DX10. Are you sure you have got this set correctly?
