Visual Bug - ChasePlane Camera
-
Hi,
I am using ChasePlane, and whenever I move the internal camera externally, this strange block appears on top of the Caravan.
I first noticed it when looking at the shadow on the ground, where it had the strange block shape.
I tested and this affects all liveries, Black Square defaults and 3rd party ones.

Just dropping in to confirm this isn't a chaseplane issue. I see this same thing using the internal camera without chaseplane installed.

Herein lies the problem. This is not a "bug", but a shadow occluder, which is used to prevent light from bleeding into the cabin of the aircraft. Some aircraft need it more than others, and the Caravan's thin, unpressurized cabin is a good example. The issue is that Chaseplane does not switch to the appropriate LOD model when the camera is moved outside the aircraft, unlike the native camera. Unfortunately, there isn't much I can do about this without potentially allowing shadows to enter the cabin for all users.

@Black-Square Thanks for the clarification. I guess I'll have to live with it showing up on shadows cast on the ground as well while sitting inside the plane. Other than this, it is a great plane, and has already provided me with hours and hours of entertainment. I thank you for that!
