I noticed the sun has been reduced in v1.5.5 to a point where it is smaller than the moon and has no glow.

Does anyone know the file location of the sun and a good replacement?

 

Thank you.

hmmm..maybe you have mistaken the moon for the sun? The moon seems larger/more prominent

On 14.11.2016 the Moon will be the biggest (closest) since 1948 - http://www.space.com/34515-supermoon-guide.html

DCS is a SIM after all, but I didn't suppose such details are simulated :lol:

F/A-18, F-16, F-14, M-2000C, A-10C, AV-8B, AJS-37 Viggen, F-5E-3, F-86F, MiG-21bis, MiG-15bis, L-39 Albatros, C-101 Aviojet, P-51D, Spitfire LF Mk. IX, Bf 109 4-K, UH-1H, Mi-8, Ka-50, NTTR, Normandy, Persian Gulf... and not enough time to fully enjoy it all

You will have to turn on one of the different lens flares in order to get the glow around the sun

 

Right you are!

Flare option does the most to enhance the halo around the sun...what does dirt option do, I didn't notice anything except less halo?

I've also noticed there is no longer any discoloring of the canopy glass near the frame.

The sun in the encyclopedia is the same

 

 

Thanks I just took a look and yes this is what I was referring to, no halo at all. If you apply flare lens you get the Star of Bethlehem affect.

 

I'm sure replacing the v1.5.5 sun file with the old one [pre 1.5.5] will restore the sun as I was referring to.
