Shader normalmap and reflection on planes disappeared in fut

An exciting "new" option in FlightGear, that includes reflections, lightmaps, the particle system etc.. A lot is yet to be discovered/implemented!

i am NOT trying to or intentionally ridicule you at all so you can get that right out of your mind when it comes to me and my posts... please do not project your's or other's actions, emotions, or anything else on my and my posts... thank you :)

i greatly applaud you and your models... without all your work there would be far less craft in FG...

"Why not?" said Gurder.

But breaking everything just for fun is not necessarily the best idea

It's just sometimes worth remembering that FG is not just a flight simulator designed for 3 or 4 people and thinking of users before we think of yourself is a good thing.

In this case destroying effects without warning or having an alternative solution, without warning the aircraft developers, without giving an alternative solution is not a correct solution.

It is a shame to see this around such a successful and well done project. Well almost because many only have respect for their work without worrying about others

But since everything is disorganized and poorly designed I could not say more.

The least of things is at least to offer something as a replacement before removing what exists.


All I have to say is that I'm glad I found the regression early. If this is what happens when something gets fixed in literally less than 24 hours, I can't imagine how bad it would have been if I had taken longer than that!

This is also a good reminder that the non-stable development version is under development. ;)

I absolutely can't wait to be able to use HDR ..... Even if it will make me redo all my models lol But that's the price to pay. And indeed it seems that the effects have returned. And I did not say that it was voluntary but simply that, before committing (even on a development version), it is always good to check, because there were no more effects on any aircraft. tested few mine of course but also the Ju52, the C172P, the 777NG and others ... I wasted almost 3 hours of my time because of that. And 3 hours is at least an update of 'failed plane lol
