December 2, 201312 yr without intention to herald nothing and just poking the CFG simulator I've accomplished what I see in the video that I put below. I hope this does not have any ad fustrado future of the company.
December 2, 201312 yr Nice video. Looks very smooth. I'm finding performance much better than a tweaked fsx.
December 2, 201312 yr Whats the aircraft? It looks like a Gloster Gladiator [color=#a9a9a9][size=1][size=4][img]http://forum.avsim.net/public/style_images/flags/rs.png[/img][/size] Lj. Prodanovic[/size][/color]
December 2, 201312 yr Author sorry but I wanted you to see the remains of the clouds over the earth and the airplane
December 2, 201312 yr So P3D has cloud shadows as well? Didn't realise that, though I find the edges not diffuse enough... A Andrew Entwistle
December 2, 201312 yr So P3D has cloud shadows as well? Didn't realise that, though I find the edges not diffuse enough... A Not officially. They can be enabled by editing the config but they aren't officially in the game for a reason… As can be seen in de video. The shapes are odd and the shadows are too dark and 'hard'. Good to know they are working on it, though!
December 2, 201312 yr Author look at the last line of the image, you have to pass in 0 to 1 and then also add the following line TERRAIN_SHADOWS_RECEIVE = 1
December 2, 201312 yr Guys this is big news. Big big. Can you imagine when this is finally done? It will take the whole experience to another level. Amazing news.
December 2, 201312 yr Great vid. LM have already said they were working on it...just didn't know there was already a "preview" built in to the config, What are your graphic / terrain settings Padolamap?

December 2, 201312 yr Personally I found the shadows to be very distracting. They didn't look at all realistic in either shape or transparency. I understand that this is not what it will become, but I couldn't enjoy flying with those . It will be interesting to see where this goes. Thank you.
