Dovre (Winter) thermals

[Inspektura43]

Dont know if bug, but the huge white snowballs give 0 visibility with thermals on. (on all the APCs)

I guess thermals can't see through ice as it can't see through hot smoke.

So why is ice marked as "hot" in thermal view? Makes no sense.

[Spook]

Engine limitation most likely.

[Brooklyn-Tech]

maybe the DEVs used dry ice to generate this effect??

Dont thermals operate using IR light? A snowstorm , which is just frozen droplets of water, would scatter and reflect all forms of light, be they visible or otherwise. So I dont suppose its as unrealistic as one might think.

Too complicated and flawed. Infrared thermal means that is reacts to heat. Hot objects are marked as light, cold are seen dark. Snowstorm is as cold as surroundings therefore it should not be seen as a hot matter. That's it.

Ohhh i see what you mean. That makes sense.

Engine limitations indeed. This is the best you'll get.
