Raven One Mission 08

[JovenTroll]

Ok, so I am going to be honest, I can't see SHIT in this mission, like really, it is ridiculous, friendly AI sees everything and have 100% accuracy and when I see other people's videos the fast movers seem to be like little light dots in the ocean that can be seen at first glance, still difficult, but you can clearly see them...BUT that is not my case and I don't know why, I really tried with Flir, low and slow passes, NVG's but the only thing that could give me a small hint of where they were was whenever they shoot Olive and I could whatch some tracer bullets, but seriously, What's whit the night lightning? Visually the cities look great and all but in terms of tactical visual capabilities is absolut garbage =S. Is there any way to improve the visual quality during night? Am I missing some graphic options that allow other people to see the small lights of the fast movers while I just see black ocean everywhere? Thanks in advance for your assistance.

called  dcs  night  lighting  not  as  good  as  one  would  expect  it  to be,  need  to  adjust  your  flir  settings  contrast   to the  night

Did you try to increase your GAMMA setting for this mission? It can easily turn things from very dark to very bright, and help a lot if your current setting is too dark.

Thank you very much for the help guys, I will give it a try

The radar in SEA mode should help a lot with this mission. 

 

Also, the easiest solution to spotting units in DCS is always to just turn on labels.

Where is the labels button on the real Hornet?  I knew those pilots were not as good as they let out!    I am betting even Hog-riders have it too don't they?!

 

In all seriousness, it is pretty cool that the F-22 and F-35 actually do have labels to a degree.  LOL!

The Hornet, Viper, and Hog almost have a real-life label type function with their HMDs in DCS as well, at least for a limited number of specific targets.
