pepto Posted November 26, 2016 Posted November 26, 2016 (edited) Looking at HUD footage (particularly this clip) I noticed that the HUD has a sort of bloom effect. The closest thing I can relate it to is the gunsight effects used in Battle of Stalingrad/Moscow. Is there any way to edit the HUD to resemble this? I don't expect a miracle but I feel like it would add a much greater level of immersion even if it is a smaller change ;) [EDIT] Could it also be possible to change the contrast too? The real life HUD seems to be more intense than what we have. Edited November 26, 2016 by pepto
razo+r Posted November 26, 2016 Posted November 26, 2016 the thing is, this might be an upgraded version, which we don't have, so it probably won't come from ED If it's possible? Maybe
pepto Posted November 27, 2016 Author Posted November 27, 2016 Sorry I probably wasn't very clear with what I meant by enhancement, I'm talking purely aesthetics with the "font" I guess you could call it, not functionality 8)
Ala12Rv-watermanpc Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 Damn man!, I was going to post an identical post!:thumbup: Thats something I also noticed some time ago...huds in DCS dont feel like "light" being reflected in a crystal...they need that "glowing" effect in the edges of the displayed items...also, as you said, in real life they seem to be more intense. In the A10C I cant sometimes see whats in the hud due to all those things. The F-5 hud has improved a bit and has that little glowing effect but even this one lacks a bit that "light feeling". Hope to see some improvements on this.:) Take a look at my MODS here

Pikey Posted December 5, 2016 Posted December 5, 2016 I think this "Bloom" effect as you describe is a really important part of making HUD's look realistic and is a great question. Yeah. looks like its more there on the Viggen. ___________________________________________________________________________ SIMPLE SCENERY SAVING * SIMPLE GROUP SAVING * SIMPLE STATIC SAVING *
razo+r Posted December 5, 2016 Posted December 5, 2016 If you mean only astethics, it still depends on if it is hardcoded or not, but i'd say it isn't possible
