Very nice screenshots. thumbsup

I was confused when reading the title of this thread. But reading the DCS Black Shark forum and the official forums it all explains to me smile Very nice surprise.
Probably will get me the full version. And finally will get me TrackIR.
How is the HDR working right now? Does it effect all models? Also looking forward to the new dynamic shadows in cockpit. Improved mission editor, improved visuals, new campaign and better AI is all I need. Though I always ask myself what they have improved with the AI. We will see.

Anyways...keep the screenshots coming. Would love to see clear sshots of the dynamic shadows in cockpit. wink

Cheers

It seems ED just moved BlackShark into DCS A10 world so all of effects come from A10 title. I haven't had time to check much of anything. I've been relearning it's barbaric systems for now and probably will not get into campaign anytime soon.

Here's cockpit shot with selfshadow.






Good Luck!

Did you notice better performance than on BlackShark?

I haven't played original in a long time so it's difficult to compare. To me it seems performance is better. It's worth 20 green ones. They said sound system is reworked. Cockpit is remade to be faster. A lot of new models.

Great shots sim!

BS2 uses an all new EDM-based cockpit that allows things like self shadowing and it runs faster. Just this part alone took about three months of work. But, I think the results speak for themselves.

Thanks again for the terrific screen grabs.

So if the cockpit is redone...I'm guessing...the cockpit mods from the older versions will not work? Not a biggie... I'm sure new mods will popup.

Downloading the full version of BS2 right now smile

Wow. Why was this such a suprise? No marketing? Seems rather odd. Good thing I sold my copy of Black Shark a few weeks ago.

Maybe I'll pick this up down the road but right now I have my hands full with A10c.

Well, not really, as if you still had it you could get BS2 for $20, but since you don't it's $40. smile

Sure wish I could get BS2 working. Have BS1 updated and went ahead and deleted it all the way and re-installed BS1. Then tried to install BS2 and it says I must install BS1. I already did and even
tested it out. Funny thing was I did not have to register it again, must have not removed it all.
Sure wish I could get it working.

No joy.
Does this mean I must find 1.0.1 update and install ?

Just to get BS2 to install ?

Thanks, but I think I will wait and just patch 1.0.0 back up to 1.0.2

Deceptively friendly. Remember, Georgia (for instance) used to be part of the Soviet Union and still use a lot of Russian hardware. smile
