HDR overdone

[Reflected]

Even if I turn HDR off, I have HDR. This is causing many issues.

 

As far as I figured out, the game checks the average brightness of the entire screen and adapts accordingly. What's wrong with this?

 

Most of your cockpit is usually darker, and since it occupies a large chunk of the screen, DCS makes it brighter thus burning out everything outside of the cockpit. That's why you cannot see your HUD.

 

When you fly above the overcast and switch to external view, your plane is almost black (!) because the surrounding of it is shiny white.

 

I believe this is overdone. This effect should be much less pronunced and only the center of the picture should be taken into consideration when DCS calculates HDR.

Yep...same. In VR, outside is super bright, inside the cockpit is quite dark.
