Scaling - Normal / Enlarged / XXL

[TomOnSteam]

Would love to have an XXL option for scaling in DCS 1.5 / 2.0. At 1080p I'm still finding it very hard to spot planes and vehicles.

 

I know it might not be super realistic but I think it would make the sim more enjoyable (since it makes you feel like a pilot with eagle eyes).

 

Although it's helping me keep my monitor clean as I'm slowling figuring out the difference between bogeys and last nights dinner splashes :)

Dito...

I agree, the scaling is a great option, but we need an even larger option. The Enlarged one is just not enough.

I'll back this.

I'm not installing the 1.5 Beta. So I haven't been able to try this out yet.

But I'm taking it as a positive statement about Model Visibility that it's still difficult to see distant objects. Because I'd like it to be.

As I understand this MV setting, it's only supposed to come into play when objects are the size of less than a pixel. The effect should be really subtle and not a giant blob on the screen. IMO.

A subtle effect is a graphic setting whereas something more pronounced becomes like a label. Then people will want to regulate it on severs and that's not desirable.

Well for you sir, you can simply have the option turned off, or use the normal setting. :)

Right. Everyone can simply set it as they like, just like their graphic settings. I'm worried if it's too pronounced that people will want to regulate it online.

I'm on board with this suggestion, too.

 

I'm still struggling to see aircraft even fairly close up at Enlarged because I'm old and blind. :D

This minus the old part. I'm just blind. :D

Agreed. so far against ground units i find enlarged to be ok, but planes are still very easy to lose in a fight
