Updated the terrain rendering to better handle low light conditions. However, this means that it gets REALLY DARK now. Things look better during dusk and down. though.

The "glowing grass" at night is gone, but there's still no twilight: the ground and vehicles are completely dark just before sunrise or after sunset:

Also, the Leo 2A5A2-DK's cloaking device is working great now! :thumbup:

The release notes might need a review....

I thought 1 flavour of T-72 using this ammo might be a mistake.

T-72B (early) is the omitted entry regarding the 3BM-42M ammo.

Pg 16

All I can say is that the T-72B and T-72B(early) are usually referred to collectively as "T-72B". And both of them do not have the BM-42M in the game, what the release notes says isn't as important. ;)

Question: Were any changes made to the T-90S armour model for 3.023? I remember a discussion that the T-90S may have been more vulnerable than it should have been (sorry, can't find the source discussion). I can't see reference to any changes to the T-90S armour model in the Release Notes.

3.023 is a very comprehensive update by the way. Thanks!

AI (western tanks) still can find me and fire through buildings(((

:mad3::mad3::mad3:

Is it possible to fix?

This update does not fix everything.

If you want to help us out, then please post the bug in the Support Forum, and create a test scenario showing it for us. A test scenario is not an actual scenario, but a scenario created with as few vehicles as possible which make it easy to see the behavior, isolate it, and debug it. These things get lost in the general forum. Thanks.

Thank you.

I'll try to make it. Sorry for posting of bug report in wrong thread.

Firing through buildings won't get "fixed" anytime soon. As a fundamental design choice, computer-controlled units will only fire if they have a line of sight to the target. Firing on a target that the computer can't see when pulling the virtual trigger requires contextual knowledge, that "the target is there" even though it can't be seen, and a reasonable assessment that the chosen ammunition will still do damage to teh target after going through the camouflage, and that going through the camouflage won't create unacceptable collateral damage (which in itself is a big can of worms).

I'm not saying that you demand the impossible, but it's quite high up the scale.

Thank you for your explanation!

It will be fixed in future, I believe. Anyway, eSim team completed a great job, each update makes this sim much better!

The second screenshot suggests that the M1 detected you and perhaps was tracking you as you went from his left to his right.

If he had a fire solution (the range didn't change much) then the APFSDS round can quite happily punch through those types of buildings and still cause pretty catastrophic "terminal effects" esp. at what seems a pretty short (under maybe 700m) range and hitting the vehicle's side?

If you were quite a distance away and maybe moving through substantial (multi-storey) buildings say in a city then its unlikely the M1 would have acquired you and if it had the rounds probably wouldn't have hit / caused damage.

It is possible, for sure.

Same result happened at range more than a 2000 meters (during COOP sessions in previous version 3.011), I did not save reports. I will provide a report if detect it in future.

But yes, if it doesn't say it in the release notes then it didn't happen. ;)

Roger, thanks.

The T-90 is no different protection wise AFAICR, there was no error there.

OK, so as far as eSim is concerned the T-90 armour model is all correct? I'm sure I'd read previously here that there were concerns (appreciate it doesn't help that I can't find the original discussion). If it is, then I can stop worrying and move on.

Thanks.

Well, yes and no. We are aware that it is a little thinner in the area of the driver's hatch than it should be, but that is because the older T-90 model and will be improved at some point if/when the model is updated.

However this issue is not a major one, the tank would still die when shot there by modern ammo, but it might make a difference with older ammo or at extreme ranges.

Great, thanks for the clarification Volcano. I'll shut up and relax now :redface:

Happy Holidays!

Thanks.

the concern was mostly because of a bug that had appeared with the armour angles. this was fixed in the previous release however.
