VC shadows addon planes

Featured Replies

Hi all!

 

Is there a solution to turn on the vc shadows with addon aircrafts. (pmdg ngx ect)

Have only with the default planes the vc shadows.

 

Thanks!

Remco

VC shadows have to be enabled by the original modeller at design time, and cannot be added afterwards.

 

Having said that, I believe the up coming DX10 fixer util by Steve may be able add VC shadowing although I don't know if there are any limitations involved with this.

The problem is until now some developers still think dx10 in fsx is an "unfinished" and "for preview only" feature and refuse to add dx10 specific feature like cockpit shadow in their plane. Hopefully the upcoming dx10 fixer will change their mind.

Cut from one of Steve's emails, while (early) testing the shadowing function:

 

 

 

Here is a revised toolbox  with a new option to enable VC shadows for any FSX aircraft that don’t have them. (Not legacy aircraft though!)

 

All the Best,

Excellent! Coolsky and Skunkworks don't support it. Milviz told me they refused to do it because it was a framerate killer - we shall see!!
