DarkStar79 Posted April 19, 2021 Posted April 19, 2021 (edited) Its still the same problem in VR, I have Reverb G2. That the brightness on the TID in daylight is way to low. I cant see anything almost! Is there any way to modifiy the value somehow so i can see the lines better?? Edited April 19, 2021 by DarkStar79
Kula66 Posted April 19, 2021 Posted April 19, 2021 Same issue ... try cranking up the gamma as a temporary work around
DarkStar79 Posted April 19, 2021 Author Posted April 19, 2021 Yea, and there must be a easy way to just edit the brightness like you can on other planes?
draconus Posted April 20, 2021 Posted April 20, 2021 It's like that since the TID changes from 27-01-2021 update. I tried Cockpit Display Res both 256 and 1024 to no avail. 1 Win10 i7-10700KF 32GB RTX4070S Quest 3 T16000M VPC CDT-VMAX TFRP FC3 F-14A/B F-15E CA SC NTTR PG Syria
DarkStar79 Posted April 20, 2021 Author Posted April 20, 2021 Yea I know. There must be a easy fix for it to just alter some value in a lua file.Skickat från min iPhone med Tapatalk

Yep. TID took way worse direction after that patch. It's very hard to see anything clearly in 1440p screen. Font and those icons are too thin. 2
RustBelt Posted April 21, 2021 Posted April 21, 2021 Even worse when you export it to another monitor. Like half as bright. 2

mrprime Posted April 26, 2021 Posted April 26, 2021 +1, currently unusable in some lighting conditions. This is max brightness: Looking forward to a fix, can't really use F14 in current 2.7 builds because of this.
Skysurfer Posted April 26, 2021 Posted April 26, 2021 I guess if ED keep messing with the lighting every patch this will keep breaking every time. Pretty annoying to have this for almost 5 months now.
Hawkeye91 Posted April 26, 2021 Posted April 26, 2021 For me the lighting seems off for a bunch of things in the plane. For instance the Phoenix Launch button in the backseat. As RIO I cannot tell at all if the light is on or off unless I actually stare at it while it changes. Really wish ED would leave lighting alone for awhile or at the very least, forward the lighting changes to the 3rd party devs early enough that they can adapt their modules to the changes before the update is out on public beta. 1
DarkStar79 Posted April 26, 2021 Author Posted April 26, 2021 Yea, but there must be a easy fix to just up the brightness, like you can on other modules. Maybe someone from HB can tell us? Or just post a hotfix for us like DEKA are doing when there is a easy fix. Everybody should learn from DEKA, they are just awsome to handle bugs. It cant take 2-3 months when the "bug" was introduced, to just make the lines brighter. Its such a easy fix! I can hardly play the plane in VR cause i have to zoom in all the time just to see everything on the TID in daytime. Its really enoying.

HB are also completely silent about this, when its been like this for atleast 3 months. Edited April 27, 2021 by DarkStar79

I would usually agree with this, but the latest update somehow managed to pull what we've been aching for in decades. For the first time in history, we have out of the cockpit visibility that resembles real life. Not just based on how far bandits can now be spotted, but under what circumstances. Shadows and reflections appear authentic, dynamic lighting as well. So i'd say good job ED!

DarkStar79 Posted May 21, 2021 Author Posted May 21, 2021 Im bumping my own post here. Im not even sure they care about this problem. I havent heard anything from them in 3-4 months since this problem occurred. HB really have to step up the game when it comes to fixing easy bugs! 1

I havent heard anything from them in 3-4 months since this problem occurred. HB really have to step up the game when it comes to fixing easy bugs! The issue here is that this is not really a bug in the way it is being presented. You are using an exceptionally low gamma setting. We master at 2.2. 2.2 is the appropriate gamma level for the DCS renderer and tone-mapper. It's possible the TID appears slightly dimmer in cloudy conditions now as the eye adjustment post processing considers clouds to be brighter than clear skies so we may tweak it a bit for the next patch.

Nothing was (intentionally) changed about the way we render fonts, lines or anything else on the TID or otherwise. Are you certain of this and not a change in settings?

Schmidtfire Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 Not sure it is a gamma issue, but if it is, would it be possible to add displays for lower gamma settings in special options? Most friends Im flying with are lowering the gamma from default. Technically gamma 2.2 should be correct and optimal, but somehow it does not present well during daylight flying in DCS. Value 2.2 is good for night missions, but for daylight missions the sweetspot seems to be around 1.8. Again, I think you are right mastering at 2.2, but there is something strange in how DCS World handles light. For me, both TID and VID (at night with red filter) is dark and hard to read. Not experiencing the same issue using other modules with displays in them. Thanks for reviewing this.
