DCS FOG and LIGHTS

[DishDoggie]

So I wanted to make a mission to fly in thick overcast fog conditions to practice navigation and low vis environment in the Huey. I find that No lights And They Are On in this weather conditions DAYTIME also. You can not see them at all unless 30 feet away and not bright just enough to tell they are on. HOWEVER If you load a Oliver Hazard Perry Class missel Version the back of the Ship has Awesome good wall lighting and the Heli Pad has the same good lighting. You need to change all DCS WORLD lighting over to the same code so we can see in the thick fog. Fly by a Oil Rig and see no lights. It would ALSO be Awesome if there was a Ocean buoy with light and bell sound to put in the water around a Oil Platform. Handy Wind and SeaGiant same very dim lighting in fog.

I can confirm with he low lighting and heavy fog /clouds. Mission 20 : The Enemy within 3.0, the ground is pretty much white with a dark sky, and looks unrealistic in VR. All light brightness in Overcast to Heavy overcast condition is very low when below the dark clouds. I thought it was a might mission on first load

Fog and Dust look awful in VR. Dust on the desert maps is an oversaturated Marscape. Fog is only marginal better but very unrealistic in appearance.

This ONE setting is the only setting I can make a heavy fog with. I wanted Rain but like you said in VR the look is not usable with FOG If I left the weather to NOTHING and picked just fog with heavy settings like 800 foot ceiling and something like 800 feet distant not sure without being in the ME. But this worked for this self user Training Mission on Navigation by compass and radio ATC location for headings to Ships I am making for a low visibility training mission to practice.
