Game seems too bright

[Furiz]

That looks great, will try it out, thanks

Yes, its a nice "mod"

 

Still, I hope the core game brightness gets improved at some point, so that we don't need to download and maintain user made improvements* (which can also cause errors, glitches and other shenanigans within DCS)

 

*with all do respect to your great work @Mustang

Hi,

 

I have been absent for a while and I am still on 2.5.3

 

Does anybody know if the devs have fixed this brightness issue in the latest stable release?

 

Thanks.

The game is too bright. Using the the standard gamma 2.2 will over blow lights seriously. I use a properly calibrated monitor and I find gamma 1.9, 2.0 much more accurate. Gamma 1.8 is already too dark.

Hmmmm...I am usually at 1.3-1.4. Maybe my monitor is too bright?

It could be my eyes too. I recently had cataract surgery and now everything is too bright.

I've been having this high gamma issue since pretty much the beginning. I'm using the latest version of DCS. I can't figure out how to do a screenshot but the problem is intermittent and shows up as soon as I click "fly." It's definitely not a problem with my gamma setting. I usually go with 1.2, but even if I drop it all the way down it's way too bright. By "way," I mean "you're standing at ground zero right with a hydrogen bomb going off a thousand feet above you." The only solution I've found is to quit the mission and refly it. Sometimes that works, sometimes it takes two or three tries for it to work. I've seen the same thing happen now and then with the 3D views of units when configuring weapons loads, etc.
