Baz000 Posted August 18, 2017 Posted August 18, 2017 Please can we have working and effective helmet sun visors for all DCS modules? Right now only certain modules have them and it is sporadic. I would request that they be realistic and synchronized in multiplayer environment. For example, if IRL the pilot doesn't wear a helmet, then don't add it for that aircraft. Try to be realistic and logical with its implementation. 2
Kippy Posted August 19, 2017 Posted August 19, 2017 Small touches like this are neat and really do enhance the sim. It would be nice to see this apply to all aircraft, like the Mig-21. If the player enables the visor, drop the pilot's visor in the external model of the aircraft. If the player disables the visor, have the visor on the pilot's helmet in the external model up. There are already arguments of the visor in both states of up and down for a lot of aircraft I think. (I can only speak for the A-10 and the F-15 in my experiences, and they both do) But given this is such a small thing, it would be pretty darn low priority I imagine. 163rd vFS Discord Soaring With the Snakes, Fangs Out!
-JTAF- Balu Posted August 21, 2017 Posted August 21, 2017 I'm with you guys. This would be (from my non dev point of view) such a simple and low effort feature, but it would add very much to the immersion. Especially if it's not only visible for the pilot, but also for his wingmen....for screenshots etc. let alone the animation from pilot view. Only the same the mig 21 has. Just like an-in-the-meantime-to-keep-you-guys-happy-during-the-long-wait-feature.
SharpeXB Posted August 23, 2017 Posted August 23, 2017 An interesting question; What do you do about the sun in VR? A real life pilot can simply put their hand or thumb over the sun. On a monitor you can use the edge of the screen to block the sun. But in VR what do you do? i9-14900KS | ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO | 64GB DDR5 5600MHz | iCUE H150i Liquid CPU Cooler | ASUS TUF GeForce RTX 4090 OC | Windows 11 Home | 2TB Samsung 980 PRO NVMe | Corsair RM1000x | LG 48GQ900-B 4K OLED Monitor | CH Fighterstick | Ch Pro Throttle | CH Pro Pedals | TrackIR 5

At this time the modules with working visors are useless, because the visor only tint the image, we need visors working like the real ones.
