Sorry to relight the fire under this one but the real issue (for me anyway and others I suspect) is not being able to read the "in game" HUD against bright blue skies and snowy mountains and landscapes.
It seems the problem has been approached from 2 angles, (this thread) and the bigger text mod (http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=95797)
I totally get the requirement for as clear a glass as possible when rolling onto a target but during navigation flight in nice weather the HUD is lacking a flip up colour filter for easy visibility (like the Ka-50 and Su-27 etc) IMHO.
So what I was wondering if there are any A-10C veterans viewing this is what is the real HUD like to read in sunny or bright white out conditions?
If you tell me it was a bitch to see and was barely legible unless against a darkish background then I'm happy to play the realism out being a sucker for punishment.
On the other hand if the opinion is that the real A-10C HUD is perfectly visible against all background conditions then there is a requirement for some kind of fix.
This is the only HUD I have had trouble getting on with in this respect.
Thanks I'm Dunravin' :D
