Devil 505 Posted December 27, 2021 Posted December 27, 2021 (edited) Again, not a massive request but I would like to have the Sun effect your ability to see when looking into it, maybe with/without visor down. I do not like to compare DCS to any other sim because there is no comparison in my opinion, BUT, IL-2 does a good job of utilizing the sun in VR. It actually blinds you from seeing what is coming if you are looking into it. In DCS, you look into it and there is no real affect. I think this would add higher level of difficulty as it should be, especially for WW2 modules and taking advantage of having the higher altitude. Curious about thoughts on this one.

Panzertard Posted December 27, 2021 Posted December 27, 2021 (edited) This need to be optional in that case. In VR I have a sun that blinds me already (PG theathre at least). In Il-2 the effect is way over the top (the sun is too large in VR only, due to the fisheye effect in VR), this is not something I would like to have in my gameplay in DCS.

It already does that, change your lens effect settings to "flare + dirt"

I did not know this. Let me see how it turns out. Maybe I will post a video on here.
Art-J Posted December 28, 2021 Posted December 28, 2021 (edited) ^ Doesn't have to be "dirt + flare" specifically. "Flare" alone already does this, especially for those of us who don't like bull$hit cinematic effects (the way the sun is rendered should be independent from these options anyway, if you ask me).

Devil 505 Posted December 28, 2021 Author Posted December 28, 2021 Thanks for the tip Mad_Shell! VR with the sun looks bad ass now! Here was a quick flight with the Mossie last night. I also tested the new rockets. Forgot to change the Salvo from 4 to 1. Also shot way to far out and dumped them into the water. VR performance has increased significantly over the Marianas! No better VR sim out there than DCS.
