sun glare way too big and artificial

EDIT: I can confirm this has now been fixed in the beta branch! Would have been nice to get some feedback from the devs though :)

 

Before I explain the issue I'd like to say I'm really glad with the progress and the new cockpit looks fantastic. Cograts Rudel!

 

 

My issue is with the cockpit glare. I was flying the first mission of the modified campaign and the sun is seen as a huge plain white circle in the sky... even behind the heavy rainy clouds! This doesn't happen with other aircraft or with exterior views. This looks really unnatural to me.

 

What's worse, it can make landing into a sunset practically impossible, since you are blinded!

 

 

I attach some screenshots showing the issue.

 

 

The images show the issue in the 21 cockpit and also in external view and the F-5 cockpit for comparison.

+1 on the sun glare issue. I hadn’t flown the Mig-21 for a while, but finally did last night, and I must say the sun glare is artificial looking and overdone. It takes your attention away from flying, it’s so intrusive, and looks nothing like what the view from any other DCS aircraft is. Please adjust - thanks in advance.

Rudel did a bit of magic by correcting canopy glass normal map texture. Not sure what further feedback you are looking for :)

The sun also has some odd effects such as showing through the spitfire tents and weird reflections on the props.
