shadow on propeller (fgfs next as of 19.11.2021) #470
Comments
that`s new behavior and not intended. Probably a graphic glitch some where in the hardcode. |
Ok, I think I remember others having similar problems and it’s been worked on. There was some traffic in the forum and mailing list i think: there it was the DDS cache corrupted. |
I mark this as WONTFIX for now, but keep it open, so we don't forget that we test once in a while... |
C172p has the same issue. |
asked the mailing list. |
Opened an FGFS issue ticket: https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/codetickets/2713/ |
asked again on the list.... |

@TheFGFSEagle Hi Eagle, does that make sense to you? Do you have some spare time to assist? |
Yeah, I think too what you're seeing on the prop is not the shadow from the shadow map from the interior effects, but simply the compositor shadow - in which case James' idea should work fine. |
Hm what still puzzles me a bit - when we have no shadow on the fast propeller disc, where does the light come from, when the sun is behind the plane. I think we probably need to do real life investigation. |
Asked on the forums: https://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=41161 |
IMO the shadow should on the prop disc too, but faded by the same amount as the prop - which is just what we have right now, right ? |
So - I decided to merge Eagles fix. The shadowing was definitely wrong, and if we get better details on how a real shadow would look like, we now can model that properly trough the new separated effect. |
Looks like its again here.... |
Hmmmmm, that's weird … I think I should be able to take a look later in the afternoon / evening. |
With FGFS from 17.10., it is still working - just noting that here to facilitate the search for the offending commit. |
On yesterday next I got this by chance.
In the propeller I have seen the interiour shadow of the plane. Is that intentional?
Sun was in my back, fair weather setting, afternoon.
