Is the Channel Map overly bright or overexposed?

[jrowland96]

Am I the only one? I normally already have my gamma set down to 1.8 from the 2.2 default... took the Spitfire on the "Free Flight" instant action around the channel map... when I did F2 view, everything was very bright and washed out... in photography terms was probably 1-1/2 to 2 stops overexposed... dropped it down to 1.4 or 1.5 to make the scenery look closer to the other maps as far as exposure and saturation... Spitfire was still overly washed out looking in external views. I have a 2080 Super and haven't changed any settings except for the gamma after I saw how bright it was.

Not sure its a channel map issue, I had the identical thing on the Caucasus map after the update. I dropped down to 1.3

I did notice during Wags' Viper video there were instances of flaring or something with the lighting. And it looked like the brightest day in 2000 years!

Noticed that as well. Maybe some more updates are needed to tweak some of the older modules to the new lighting system.

Could be your shareders, did you guys try to delete whatever's in your fxo and metashaders under your dcs user folder?

Had the same issue flying in the Gulf, had the same tan as Trump.

yep everything seems brighter in the Channel map and even the gunsight in the spit seems more washed out

Looks good at gamma 1.6 in a rift s :thumbup:
