Coming Soon...

[gecko]

A new set of environment effects for CFS3. Improvements include water reflection and color, improved canopy and metal reflections, improved sun light and sunrises and sunsets, properly dark nights, and improved weather conditions. It's out to the ETO crew for testing now, upload here soon to follow. This version will work well in any European theater install. More versions with colors tweaked specifically for MAW, PTO, and Rising Sun are in the works.

Thanks! The thread title ended up being misleading due to unforeseen PC issues, but all is well now ( sort of) and I'll get the ETO package up this week.

[wichner]

I don't foresee any conflict there, you should be fine.

[gecko]

Just uploaded the CFS3/ETO version, should be available soon: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum....php?catid=161

Make certain you install the whole package as described in the readme, picking and choosing parts to install will result in some odd looking effects as all the parts build on and modify each other and are unlikely to be compatible with other versions of the same effects you may have from elsewhere.

[Pat Pattle]

Is this any different from the test package Daniel, can I download and overwrite?

I very much like the enhanced horizon effect and new clouds/weather!

[gecko]

Glad you like it. There are a couple improvements based on some feedback I got, so I recommend you overwrite your old files with these.

[wichner]

Would very much like to install this to my CFS ET) 1.40....but not sure if 1.40 has the ENB stuff already included....in which case the install instructions are different.

Sorry to be so dense. I have a clean 1.40 install that works great. Don't want to mess it up.

So, if 1.40 doesn't have the ENB stuff automatically included, then it appears I can just install this great new enhancement without worry.


If 1.40 already has the ENB stuff automatically included, then i will need to follow those specific instructions.


Can anyone who knows the answer please comment. Thank you!!!!!

[gecko]

ETO does not come with ENB, you have to add it yourself. In any case it is unlikely to cause problems if you did have it installed already, just make backups of those files before installing the new ones so you can copy them back if you decide you don't like my version. Enjoy!

[wichner]

Thank you for the reply. And, Thank you for sharing your hard work with the CFS community.

[rocketred]

its works well , excellent addon and fix on many fronts ,,,,

i have a mixed eto-fp cfs3 in one , and this really enhances the features day and night - etc.....


,many tks ...and your work on this matter likely will be the start of a new era on this feature youve started for many years to come to the community

Rocketred,

How did you do the mixed ETO-FP in CFS3? I was thinking of trying it because I can't install ETO at all.

If you could send me a message or an e-mail on how you did it, that'd be fantastic!

Thanks,

Chris

[Threedp]

Thank you gecko! Finally got time to give it a try and it's excellent.:salute::mixedsmi:
