Just had a flight with my wing and did some AR and found the tanker director lights were almost

Not visible. I had my gamma set at 2.1 and they were visible in previous patches not sure about 6/3. Others in my group reported the same issue. Is this a confirmed issue? i use track ir btw no vr, and sorry you can move this post since I dont have the track file.

Have the same problem with S3-B Viking lights at night. I mentioned it here and that was in previous patch, but it still the same for me in current patch too. Both tanker after contact at the distance and basket when you are close to the tanker are barely visible in two recent patches for me - makes AAR really uncomfortable. Didn't have this problem before.

 

Couple of screenshots for comparison.

And one more unrelated to AAR lightening question: when doing instrumental landing runway lights are almost invisible in two recent patches, so I don't see the runway until very last moment. Is it just me or runway lights we brighter earlier?

Yup me too.Just tried with KC135MPRS and S3 KC130 and no lights until I get within 1/2 mile. Other aircraft's lights are visible from miles as bright fuzzy orbs. I am in VR as well. I made up a pitch black AAR mission and with F18 had to fly with NVG to get close to tanker then of course the Probe light is also broken. So had to refuel with NVG.:no_sad:

 

There is a definite render distancing issue going on with lights in DCS in general. Runways, planes, all affected.

That's exactly what I have to do now (except I'm still trying to refuel without NVG - my poor eyes :( ).
