Nuclear sun on first mission start up

[Cdodders]

When I make a SC mission and jump in for the 1st time, the ambient brightness is akin to the flash of a Nuclear Bomb. Going back and reloading the mission sometimes solves it, as well as changing the time

I have attached a sample mission and a few screenshots

 

1st screenshot is of the initial mission start, 2nd is of the mission start after changing time from 0800 to 0600

 

After changing the time back to 0800 everything was normal

It has happened to me too, several times. Just restart and it will be fine. Weird though.

I have not been able to reproduce on my machine so far. 

 

I will ask others to test also

I think I found the root cause. I recently updated a NTTR mission with carrier deck crew and vehicles. As soon as I saved it and started I got the nuclear sun 3 times in a row. I think those are causing it.

+1 here. Several times. And only in 2D. In VR never happened to me.

But i use a lot of mods and scripts, so, the culprit can be one of the mods (like stated above). And i didn´t tested without mods.

I have seen this mentioned before, but have not been able to reproduce on my system so far. 

 

will keep watching for it. 

 

thank you

I do get something like this with early morning mission but only when I choose not to use JHMCS for my helmet (as configured for Hornet in Mission Editor).
