Forward had low ambers...you're right forward and aft have different settings for when Boss yells "SET RECOVERY LIGHTS". The low level blues are so low that they are worthless if you come topside from underneath the ship and your eyes haven't adjusted...but if you're in the junkyard pre-flighting a Hawkeye (like I used to do...) they are JUST enough to not trip over tie-downs...most of the time! I feel like I know who you are. I was on the Nimitz in Bremerton next door to the Stennis. And I've tripped over plenty tie downs as well, going to and from the Crash Shack! Lighting always sucks back there! Edited December 16, 2021 by Jackjack171 DO it or Don't, but don't cry about it. Real men don't cry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about reflective patches on gloves, just like what is already on the vests, so we can see them at night without having to turn on landing lights or resort to NVGs? It seems like this could be done as a stop gap (in 2 weeks ). Edited December 30, 2021 by WOPR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, we are nearly 2 years post launch, had wands teased nearly a year ago, and still are nowhere near a public release. This is very disappointing progress, and it does feel like the supercarrier has become an afterthought with soon to be three new module releases since. I'm honestly very disappointed with the slow progress on the SC for all listed features. I don't think 2 years off virtually no progress is reasonable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team BIGNEWY Posted December 30, 2021 ED Team Share Posted December 30, 2021 The reality is if it is not ready for public yet and I say " it's coming on this date " and it does not make that date I get angry messages from users. I say planned because it is, I do not give a date because I can not, like it or not that is how it is. 5 Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted December 30, 2021 ED Team Share Posted December 30, 2021 We are bringing new features to DCS with the Supercarrier, the work is complex and will take time, without early access we would not be able to bring any of these modules to you all. We have a short break planned for Christmas and new year and we will be back hard at work, as soon as we have news to share we will share it. 4 Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

PeneCruz Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 I’d be happy with a simple command via the Comms menu to set lights to a few configurations and they stay like that until you change them. This way we can control the environment without random switching that doesn’t suit time of day, sun in the eye, weather etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilbur81 Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 I honestly DO NOT understand this complaining about the glow sticks. I have had the Supercarrier since day one and use it constantly. I have ZERO issues with navigating the deck at night. I'll take the FPS hit on the night lighting fixed, new briefing room, etc... 1,000,000,000 times over the glow sticks. 1 i7 8700K @ Stock - Win10 64 - 32 RAM - RTX 3080 12gb OC - 55 inch 4k Display Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone that knows anything about carrier aviation knows this! I'd take the wands over a briefing room. Who am I briefing with? It's nice to have and I wont complain but wands are more of an operational (albeit simulated) thing! We've had to use the taxi light and nav lights at night since the SC was released...which is unrealistic and sort of kills immersion to a point!
