Gianky Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Hey guys! Since 2.5.6 flying in a dark night in VR is a bit of a trouble, since the lights blind me. Lowering Gamma level from 2.2 to 1.5 helped with almost everything, but one, very important thing: using the Litening. Especially on the DDIs, using the Tpod at night is a PITA. The best workaround I found is to use FLIR view in BH mode, but even so, when some white spot comes into view it glows too much. Anyone else is having troubles with this? Has anyone thought of any other kind of solution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone thought of any other kind of solution? Just tried this. Entirely agree. I'm surprised that adjusting DDI night/day, brightness, contrast makes no difference to the image, only to the symbols - is this correct?

Gianky Posted February 29, 2020 Author Share Posted February 29, 2020 Just wait for new flir system to be integrated. Aside from the fact that we don't know when it'll be delivered, I honestly don't think that's gonna help, it's a lighting issue, not a targeting pod one. Just tried this. Entirely agree. I'm surprised that adjusting DDI night/day, brightness, contrast makes no difference to the image, only to the symbols - is this correct? Yeah, unfortunately DDIs, unlike HUD and AMPCD have only two settings for lighting, that doesn't help either. As for contrast and brightness, not sure if it's how it works in real life, but, yeah, not much effect in here, for this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scopewizard Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Our group flew a night mission last evening and the targeting pod screen was so bright even with brightness set to 1 that it was almost unusable. I reduced gamma to 1.5 but still too bright. Any settings used by anyone that helped with this problem. I do not fly with VR but brightness is still a major problem.

AstonMartinDBS Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Seems to be a general problem with the new lighting system.

Gianky Posted March 13, 2020 Author Share Posted March 13, 2020 Yeah, I'm afraid till ED will do something about it, there's not much we can do. Scopewizard, as I wrote above, lowering gamma helps, but you can't lower it too much if you play in VR, 1.5 is already dark enough that I now have to turn on cockpit lights even in daylight. On the Hornet, you can use BHOT instead of WHOT, it's less bright, but still annoying when you frame white spots... It's a bit I don't fly in a moonless night, so I haven't tried any new workaround... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blunt_waco Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Yes, I want to add my voice to this as well. TPOD in VR is troublesome. I set my GAMMA to 1.7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
