I'd say they are pretty close from the inside too...

Someone will probably come up with a mod sooner or later. It looks realistic and I prefer it.

I worked A10s for 6 years when I was in the Air Force, and it looks like that. Once you get used to it, you can't even tell it's there. If you're worried about that tint, you're not paying attention to the right things while you're flying! ;)

Adjusting my monitor (reduced brightness, contrast and sharpness) has cured e.g. the saturation problem for me :)

 

Yeah I did the same but then you need to faff about with it wehen you're watching/playing something else.

 

I wish nVidia would include colour/brightness/contrast etc in graphics profiles.

it is actually gold tint to resist electromagnetic interference.

 

If it's for blocking EMI what's the reasoning for having it on only the two side pieces and not the front or the main bubble? Even if it's not for EMI I still don't get the reasoning, actually.

I have a cockpit mod ( privat ) but she is not really done. Actually, I'm waiting for BPR :music_whistling:.

But ! It is not a problem to remove the color. You can change that yourself. It is very easy and does not take long.

:drunk:

 

That looks super sexy!!1!!!11!!!!

 

But, first question is, when the cockpit overhaul will happen - KA-50 is delayed to 2019. Second question is, if the won't optimize the tint with overhaul anyway - as they did with the Hornet HUD.

 

 

So maybe the owner of the MOD wants to share it rather sooner than later :music_whistling:

 

It think many of us would highly appreciate it :pilotfly:

Hey all, I was in the main DCS folder last night and searched for *.bmp. I saw a file called A-10 cockpit glass.bmp... or something like that. I'm not on my home PC at the moment so I don't know the exact name, but it was obvious when I saw it. The thumbnail image looked like just the yellow/green color. Perhaps if you edit it, it may change the glass tint color? I'll leave that up to someone else to try and provide feedback. I'm fine with the color as is...just wanted to throw this out there...

Modified file A-10A-HUD-COLOR.bmp

 

I modified this file with Photoshop using Image/Adjustments/Levels, reducing the amount of "darkness". This gives me a significantly brighter view through the HUD. The attached file replaces the one in "...\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\A-10C\Cockpit\Textures\A_10C_C_EDM_TEX.zip"

Edit:

I overlooked that I had a second modified file in "A_10C_C_EDM_TEX.zip". The attached ZIP file contains both modified files which replace the original ones in "A_10C_C_EDM_TEX.zip".

I also attach screen shots showing the original and the modified HUD.

This file name A-10C-glass-REFLECT.dds must be used to reduce the color of the canopy.

I would like to see the result of that change, plus I would like to know how (in Photoshop) you changed it.

Your method produces the same result, and it's better because it requires only one file to be modified. I didn't realize that the files under "...\Bazar\Textures\..." override the ones under "...\Mods\aircraft\...\Cockpit\Textures...".

Good to know!
