How terrain shadows interact with 'you'

Featured Replies

This shows the new volumetric clouds in action and how the terrain shadows interact with you in the cockpit.

 

Thanks for putting your life at risk to show us this! ^_^

 

The shadows are GREAT. I love them. P3D is here to stay.

Yeah, I kept waiting for a wing to depart the aircraft or something.  :)

 

Terrain casting shadows into the cockpit is just fantastic.

Sorry, couldn't be bothered watching the whole video to see if this was covered.

 

But what would be cool is if, when you pull into an open hangar, shadows were cast over the aircraft and VC.

 

I haven't got P3D V2 yet (will probably do so next month) so it would be cool to know if this happens.

Ha! I parked the A36 in an open hanger. Shadows worked just fine, but they haven't plugged the holes in the roof...

 

...it was raining just as hard inside the hanger as it was outside... :LMAO:

Thanks Bill

 

I usually try to include an open hangar or two in my sceneries but it is never as good as it could be when parking inside the hangars due to the lack of shadows in FSX.

 

As for the rain... well we can't have everything can we?
