Wingnutt270 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 (edited) I recently purchased the F86 module and was really excited for some good ole mig ally action.. Problem is I cant see a Mig15 pretty much at all, to the point where I can know EXACTLY where it is and be looking directly at it and unless I'm right on top of it, I cant see it at all. I know this is related to the resolution of the Rift, but I ---DESPISE--- using labels, even using the period mod looks like trash (IMO) There is no longer an option for object magnification it seems, which helped in 1.56. Is there a mod or tweak to help this out a bit? I know many games address this issue by rendering the aircraft as a minimum pixel count (dot) out to a certain range, a good example would be ACES HIGH. If the AC is within a distance that it is reasonable that you could normally see it, it will always be at least a dot so it cant "hide" in the resolution. I've tried searching but I run into the familiar quagmire of time VS version lots and lots of threads but most are dated either regarding the iteration of the rift or the game itself so the solutions/ideas in them are no longer relevant to the game or rift. Could really use some help. Edited July 22, 2017 by Wingnutt270 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingnutt270 Posted July 23, 2017 Author Share Posted July 23, 2017 Well I ordered a Pimax 4K so we will see of that fixes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooternutz Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Well I ordered a Pimax 4K so we will see of that fixes it. Interested to see how this will work for you. I wish you the best!

mytai01 Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 You don't realize that what you expect is far from reality. Real jets can be very difficult to spot at relatively close range. Things in the real world are smaller than you think and much harder to spot as well...

tintifaxl Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 My solution to this is custom labels that show only a dot. Windows 10 64bit, Intel i9-9900@5Ghz, 32 Gig RAM, MSI RTX 3080 TI, 2 TB SSD, 43" 2160p@1440p monitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkiii Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 You don't realize that what you expect is far from reality. Real jets can be very difficult to spot at relatively close range. Things in the real world are smaller than you think and much harder to spot as well... But the pixel resolution and frame rate of our eyes, brain & the real world are much higher than a PC screen, therefore simulations compensate for this with tricks like enlargement or black dots. Also, specularity and flashes from movement & reflected light are easy to spot in RL compared to the simulation, even in our peripheral vision.

mytai01 Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 An F-16 1 mile in front of you and head on with a closure rate of 1200 Kts would be invisible to your eyes. Even on a good day...

mytai01 Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 I've also had the experience of flying in a Lear jet with Navy contractors working with real GCI Controllers vectoring us towards another Lear jet that was playing the Bandit. We were at 24k ft and he was at 25k ft. We we were to report, "tally bandit" when we saw him. Even knowing our relative altitudes and four pairs of eyes, including a retired Navy F-18 pilot, still had us only spotting the bandit at less than a mile.

boedha68 Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 under setting UIlayer you can map a button to zoom. In radar you know where the plane must be. With zooming is the spotting much easier.
