The Mig-29 often produces long, thick vortices at the wingtips. It would be cool to have a custom effect for this plane rather than the short one used on all other planes.

The AAR disconnect test is currently missing. This is part of the Startup Checklist. It would be nice to have it: - On the ground open the air refuel door-> RDY light on (we already have that) - Press A/R DISC button on Hotas -> DISC light on, RDY light off; 3 seconds later, RDY light on, DISC light off.

Sky/Clouds/Scenery overexposed around the sun
broderbund67 replied to broderbund67's topic in Weather System Bugs & Problems
How bright should the HUD be near the sun? I took this screenshot from the Blue's angel Youtube. You can read the HUD through the visor reflection. Minimum sun bloom -

label outlines planned Readability for MFD / Menu Color Change
broderbund67 replied to Shrike88's topic in Wish List
For those wondering, you can see how the black outline looks like in real life. Hope this will help with readability https://youtube.com/watch?v=3h0bRKUpPW4&feature=shares&t=50 -
Hi, I did a flight at 20,000ft, wind 284-062. Flying hdg 325 the sonic boom occurs at M1.05. Flying hdg 159 it occurs at M0.93. I would expect the sound effect to happen at M1.0? See attached track. Thanks Sound bar.trk

Sky/Clouds/Scenery overexposed around the sun
broderbund67 replied to broderbund67's topic in Weather System Bugs & Problems
Thanks, Yes I am using OpenXr Toolkit and it helps. I tried the helmet sun visor on the Mirage 2000C and it fixes the issue but only works for this module. I also find that the "eye adaptation" effect that brightens the exterior when looking inside the cockpit is more pronounced on certain modules. For example the mig-29 is worse than the f-16. -
Sky/Clouds/Scenery overexposed around the sun

I am already using OpenXr Toolkit and turning the highlights down helps a bit. Maybe it is the headset.. Hoping to get Rift S users feedback -

I am not sure that the screenshots will reflect what I see in the VR headset but I can try. If I set gamma to 2.2 everything gets too bright. I am not saying that you shouldn't be blinded by the sun, I am trying to show that in VR everything is overexposed over too wide an area arround the sun. The atmospheric light scattering is very strong and you loose all the scenery/sky details. -
OpenXR Toolkit with new DCS release? Not working
broderbund67 replied to KCOOL's topic in Virtual Reality
I was using OpenComposite but it wasn't working with OpenXR Toolkit. I forced it through the .exe and it is working now Thanks a lot! -
Hi, Please see below some pictures that I took through my Rift S. It is hard to show but the light scattering around the sun in very strong (I am using 1.7 gamma). I am not trying to show the sun itself but rather the radius at whitch everything around it is blown out and overexposed. It also applies to objects reflecting light (snowy scenery, white concrete wall..). In the first picture the sun is behind the clouds and yet all the highlights are overexposed on a very wide area. Bloom on/off doesn't affect it. Also tried on a monitor and the issue is not that visible because the overexposed areas look way smaller on a screen. I am having this issue on the Caucasus, PG and Marianas map. There is also a new "eye adaptation" effect in DCS that compounds this problem when too much of the cockpit is in frame. Am I missing a setting? Any Rift S users having the same issue? Thanks,

OpenXR Toolkit with new DCS release? Not working
broderbund67 replied to KCOOL's topic in Virtual Reality
Hi, Can anyone provide some guidance on how to get OpenXR Toolkit to work with DCS stand alone and Oculus (Rift S). I cannot get the openxr toolkit menu to showup. I tried the Skatezilla DCS Updater Utility to force it to SteamVR but it's not working. Thanks -
Thanks, that's a great explanation! I'll keep practicing
