Mirage ( heat effect ) on Arma !

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I have just purchased ArmA 2: Reinforcement DVD, and i launch a basic mission in editor for test the new unit and see an amazing thing !

After runing under hot climat ( Sun max, 20% FOG, time 13:25 ), I see mirages in game !

It happen on object not too far ( > 100m ), bush, power pole, chimney, building !

I see the texture moving a bit like that on the chimney http://storage.canalblog.com/97/64/484375/43124971.jpg

My question: I dont use mod, just lastest beta patch. Is it a new feature, or an old that i never see ?

At the begining i think it was a FADE activated bug, but it wasent appears ground or weapon distorsion. I tryed to shoot ( Fade activate bullet dispersion ) but here, nothing, all apears as normal, all shoot are 100% accurate. I got all arma on DVD ( ArmA 2 + Arrowhead + Reinforcement )

Edit: if its a bug, i recorded 20s on chimney, that not very revelant but we can see a bit of.

Im sending video on youtube

I think what you are actually experiencing there is the "out of breath" affect. When you sprint for a certain length of time you get this wobbling visual affect, to simulate exhaustion. It has been in since Arma2, If I recall correctly.

It is probably attached to the Post Processing graphic option, not sure on that though.

Heat haze would indeed be a nice addition. Don't see that in many games though, so maybe its quite hard to get looking right?
