Perfectly clear and bright running the Ka-50 Quick Action Mission "Free Flight" on the Normandy map.

 

+1 looks good for me in my RiftS

 

Edit: The screenshot looks worse then in game

Make sure you have repaired the install.

 

Ah yes, the standard procedure after each DCS update:

 

1) Repair

2) Remove fxo and metaschaders2 folders

3) Run DCS

 

Became second nature for me.

Auto pilot lights still inverted, left panel and right.

Backup Attitude indicator still goes off too quickly.

English pit booted up as standard.... as it was set previously.

Keyboard binding has changed and I hope will be interesting reading.

Just to clarify earlier post... switch lights in the PG map are not good... no better than before.... Probably because of new lighting that was NOT installed in Caucasus Map... Some screenies...

Wow, the AP lighting is the same? I just tried the cockpit and the switches in the A10 and overall resolution is way higher, are we going to see higher resolution textures and is this going to be updated? It is a massive disappointment, I was going to buy the BS 3 based on the quality of this update and the lighting hasn't been fixed. I bought BS1, then the upgrade and BS2.

Or it's a problem with the english cockpit, hot start on PG on Burj Al Arab heli pad and Auto Turn turned on

 

EDIT: No, works also with the english cockpit.

Looking at your image, is it a shadows thing?

 

in pit flat shadows just click into place as you rotate..... I will try this in a mo.

 

Unknown and Rrhode, have you deleted fxo and shaders file or just standard install and repair?

The light is reversed for the function. Hot start and the 'auto turn' light will be on but 'auto turn' function is off.

 

 

 

Hit the button, the light goes off and the 'auto turn' function works... - its reversed for some reason - I'm sure it'll be an easy fix

if you are having issues try changing the language of the cockpit and then back. I had some bugs in the English one that went away such as shval not working and map not loading. The only bugs I have found so far is the lws power and test is well sorta missing and the hardpoint power lights are only orange when I turn away and look at them from 45% or so off center. Using track IR.

I always do (repair, del fxo/metashaders2) - and I am not complaining, only pointing out that the AP lights work well now as advertised by ED. :thumbup:

This time i did just the install without deleting the metashader/fxo folders and i did not run the repair after the update.

You can only check when you engage the function... auto hover, lock, move the camera with the auto turn light on, does your nose follow the camera...? now hit the button and turn the light off and try again...

 

 

If you know all this, sorry... but to me in my DCS it is back to front...

This is how it looks for me, hot start, if you press that button you can see the light turns on.

 

 

But i think the problem is if you have direct light on that panel, then you can't recognize if it is turned on or off. Not sure if bug or feature? In RL it's hard to see some lights/LED's with direct sun light on them.

Agreed,

Restarted DCS and the Autopilot lights are indeed lighting up correctly, both left and right. This really was obvious after restarting (I did not delete FXO and shaders files..... yet.) but the lights are not as obvious without the gorgeous pit shadows.

Did you check the function against the light... if not, could you please do so... 'cause here is what I see....

 

 

Note the light, faint as it is... when off, auto turn works ?

 

Same in all 4 maps... maybe its my bloody gremlins.... My DCS has plenty...

Question

 

Do you think that the HUD in the new cockpit have a low bright value?

 

I mean, i tried some of instant action missions and in all is the same.

HUD is barely or not visible.

 

Here is an example with the "Ka50 attack insurgents" instant action.

Where you can cleary see this.

With other aircraft with HUD this doesnt happens

 

My gamma setting is 2.2, wich match my gamma monitor which is 2.2

I must say that the difference between the old and new cockpit is not as colossal as in the A-10C. I was expecting something different. The A-10C difference is definitely more visible. The compass still looks like it has been painted with a brush.

The sea is not the end of the amendments?

You were right UNKNOWN... despite what I was seeing.... turning the gamma down to 1.2!!! showed the lights correctly.... but ugh! to the cockpit at that setting ha haha.. thanks...
