LowRider88 Posted June 15, 2020 Posted June 15, 2020 When pulling high G loads pilots first start losing peripheral vision before fully blacking out. I don’t believe I encountered this yet in DCS, but seem to remember it from other sims. If it is not in DCS, would it be possible to add layered images which show a black outer ring around the players front view, which progressively gets larger and creeps inward until full black out? Sudden up loads of Gs could skip layering steps and go faster to full black out. Also some older sims had red out for negative Gs simulating blood rushing to the head. Maybe this may also be a realistic feature?
Deano87 Posted June 16, 2020 Posted June 16, 2020 This already happens in DCS as far as I know, I've for sure flown sections of combat trying to keep the enemy within the "tunnel" of my tunnel vision.

LowRider88 Posted June 16, 2020 Author Posted June 16, 2020 I haven’t seen it yet. Got a video of it?
LowRider88 Posted June 16, 2020 Author Posted June 16, 2020 Okay, I see. Maybe the sim I saw the effect was DCS :p I didn’t see the ring in your video until your second recovery. For me, I don’t recall the ring when flying the F-5E. The transition wasn’t apparent for me. Maybe just need to ramp up and down with Gs more gradually. Or maybe in F-5 the transition is too brief.
