Airhunter Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 As of this update there is no noticeable instrument (integ) lighting anymore and the instruments have this blue-ish tint to them when reflecting sunlight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
some1 Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Looks like a global problem with lighting in the latest DCS, most cockpits have issues.

Airhunter Posted June 3, 2020 Author Share Posted June 3, 2020 Viggen was the only I noticed obvious issues on so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxic Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 (edited) Viggen was the only I noticed obvious issues on so far. Confirmed, Viggen is the only one with this issue I've seen so far. Edited: This is DCS wide on a lot of modules now.

Fercyful Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 can confirm. Also for F-14 now panel lights are too dim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airhunter Posted June 3, 2020 Author Share Posted June 3, 2020 Yep, all planes are affected by this one way or another. Seems ED are messing with the lighting snd alpha textures without telling anyone or even testing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronMike Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Thanks guys, ED shifted something in the lighting again, we're currently trying to figure out a best course of action with them, as adjusting the lights to the state of which they were in at release, is a lot of work, and cannot be redone every patch. We hope that the tuning of lights will soon be over and we can revert everything back to normal. Thank you for your kind patience.

currenthill Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Unfortunately this problem doesn't seem to have been fixed with the latest patch. Bummer, was hoping to fly some Viggen again.

DthFrmAbv Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 and also not by today's hotfix. Not such a hot fix for Viggen pilots.... Ryzen 3700X, 2080ti, 32GB, HP Reverb, Rift S, Thrustmaster Warthog, Crosswind, SFX-100 motion rig :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
currenthill Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 and also not by today's hotfix. Not such a hot fix for Viggen pilots.... No, unfortunately not. Too bad, I was hoping to do some Viggen driving this weekend. I can live with a somewhat slow update pace, but right now it feels like the module takes a turn for the worse with every update/fix/patch/hotfix/whatever. _____________________________________________________________ Military Assets for DCS by Currenthill Questions about my assets - check my FAQ!

lwalter Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 The blueish instrument lighting was ok for me. Actually, I initally thought that it looked nice this way :) However, what quite disturbing to me currently is that it's impossible to read the lighting for the afterburner stages or the autopilot ones. Are you also working on fixing those? iMac Retina 5K, 27-inch, i7 4 GHz, 32 GB RAM, AMD R9 M395X 4 GB | Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog | Cougar MFD | MFG Crosswind | EDTracker Pro | Realteus ForceFeel DCS World | Bf109 | Fw190 A8/D9 | P47 | P51 | Spitfire | I16 | C101 | L39 | F86F | MiG15 | MiG19 | MiG21 | FC3 | A10C | AJS37 | AV8BNA | F5 | F14 | F16 | F/A18 | M2000 | JF17 | Christen Eagle | Yak52 | SA342 | UH1H | Mi8 | Ka50 | Combined Arms | NS430 | Persian Gulf | Normandy | Channel | Syria | NTTR | WWII Assets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think we should 'blame' the module in this case, HB didn't mess it up after all.

currenthill Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 I don't think we should 'blame' the module in this case, HB didn't mess it up after all. Yes, that seems correct. That's kind of a substantial dilemma for the third party developers. I wonder if the third party devs are involved in the QA testing before a patch is released? Because the main bugs in the latest patches could most likely with ease have been spotted by my late grandmother. And I'd be pretty upset if my work as a third party was thrown under the bus, because of shoddy QA work. :smilewink: _____________________________________________________________ Military Assets for DCS by Currenthill Questions about my assets - check my FAQ!

Eldur Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 I hope this will be dropping soon. Also having issues seeing the HUD in both the Viggen and Tomcat since the changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

currenthill Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 Looks like it, which is sad to hear. And since I'm one of the lucky guys where the BER bug has been fixed in the latest patches (and apart from the annoying lighting bug) I'm very happy with the state of the Viggen. _____________________________________________________________ Military Assets for DCS by Currenthill Questions about my assets - check my FAQ!

Airhunter Posted June 18, 2020 Author Share Posted June 18, 2020 I still think the HUD is fairly hard to see through. There has been a quite noticeable reduction in transparency, which is quite annoying. I wouldn't call the lighting fixed at all, it's way better but not even close to what it was originally.
