F-14 Mirrors show different environment

Does it belong here (is it a "general bug") or may it better be moved to the F-14 section?

 

I have had F-14 mirrors show different situation than "reality"/outside view.

Examples:

- Persian Gulf, rain storm (okay, that's pretty rare I guess 🤪) - rain keeps pouring down my cockpit, but mirrors show perfect sunshine!

- Syria, sunrise - scenery looks reddish brown, but mirrors show bright red (rather Marsian) landscape...

- night - after taking off and flying over a city the citylights in the mirrow are shining BRIGHTLY - a lot more intensly then when looking outside... That gets better when getting farther away from the city, though.

 

Thanks for looking into...

this is the case with all mirrors. they are a very low-def version of the scene (i guess to save CPU/GPU cycles). I know what you mean looks bad, so i fold them away and use them only for when tactically essential.

Every module/ map except the dual winged joke.

Okay, if that's the way it's supposed to work....... then, be it...

 

Thanks for your explanation!

Yeah - nice... 🤪

 

But my cockpit view with rain pouring down the canopy and the mirrors showing bright sunshine was good as well....... 🤣

 

I LOVE Heatblur's F-14 mirrors, though - despite, actually BECAUSE, they do show lot of pilot's helmet's reflection (this being pretty unrealistic)..........
