dresoccer4 Posted November 30, 2017 Author Share Posted November 30, 2017 maybe the tutorial videos were recorded back when the MFDs were MColor...?

Zeus67 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 The MPCDs are in color but they only use green for their compatibility with NVG "Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots.

dresoccer4 Posted November 30, 2017 Author Share Posted November 30, 2017 The MPCDs are in color but they only use green for their compatibility with NVG i'm not 100% sure i understand. they are in color, but only are green, for NVG. is there a way to turn off the green when not using NVG? it's totally not a big deal, just curious Acer Predator Triton 700 || i7-7700HQ || 512GB SSD || 32GB RAM || GTX1080 Max-Q || FFB II and Thrustmaster TWCS Throttle || All DCS Modules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrinik Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 (edited) It´s just text? I´m not exactly sure what you are asking for here...do you want your text to be blue and purple and red at the same time? I´m sure the moving map will be in color once implemented, the A-10Cs screens are also in color yet noone seemed to complain they only use green for text and B/W for video. Sorry if I am comming off condecendingly, no offence, genuinely puzzled.

Kayos Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 The MPCDs are in color but they only use green for their compatibility with NVG So how do you turn them from color to green? Changing them from Night mode to Day mode doesn't seem to do anything. They are color in that one video from June. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry if I am comming off condecendingly, no offence, genuinely puzzled. because it is in multi-color in the video i posted. now its mono-color. was seeing if there was a way to switch between the two.

Kayos Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 (edited) Green is a color... I meant multi color like this :) Edited November 30, 2017 by Kayos [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeus67 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I meant multi color like this :) Initial development build. Later we got a real USMC pilot who explained to us that everything is green except for the moving map. The point of using green is to control cockpit brightness when using NVG.
