We are reviewing changes and updates to FLIR today, backlight issues as well, I doubt it will make the next patch, but soon. 

Thanks for your honest feedback. Really appreciate it, so we know what's going on.

Thanks, I am back to A-10C since 2016... switched from 1.5 recently to recent version. Now even during the day both both MFD screens are so washed out especially on TGP and TAD pages, over-bright during day time I am unable to read most things. Changing contrast can mitigate the issue a little bit. In the beginning I thought there is something wrong with my graphics card drivers after DCS engine update but it is the A-10C module issue.

No there is not much you can do, the A-10 was the worst of the big three having issues, its much better internally now.

What is considered next patch?, is it the patch for the open beta version or the stable version ?

I don't know the answer to that question, but generally speaking, when there are known issues in the OpenBeta, they're fixed in the OpenBeta first, and then when the OB turns out to be sufficiently stable, that version is then released into the Stable branch a little later.

To put it differently, I don't think I've ever seen a patch getting deployed to Stable before it was released into OpenBeta. So, I'd expect OB to be patched, and if all is (relatively) well, Stable might be updated a couple of days later (or weeks, or months - that part really depends).

Is this problem still present in the latest OB (which is the same version as the latest stable right now)?

I didn't see any mention in the patch notes, but one of my squad mates says it's fixed for him.

I'll give it a look and let ya know if I still have the issue.

 

 

Edit:

 

It would appear to have been fixed.  Although I feel like the switching of gain/level from white to black hot is weird in that getting a good image for one completely messes up the other.  I also think that bhot and whot are still reversed but need to test a bit further.  The eye gouging default brightness seems to have been reduced significantly.

Its possible it snuck through, I thought it would come with a regular patch along with the FLIR fixes. 

No, the brightness swich is still not working. Nothing fixed in the latest patch.

Quick workaround for A10 pilots until ED fix the MFCD brightness issue.

Go to DCS World Open Beta Directory, then See first image for location.

MFCD Lua Location.jpg 

Open MFCD with Notepad++ and edit with these numbers, see second image

Save and your night and day displays will be much nicer, you can then use the gain button on the TGP and moving map to adjust much better.

How has this not been fixed yet....

 

The community has done more in the past day for the A-10 than ED in the past 6 months to solve this issue.

It doesn't fix it, the DISP setting is not accessible via the lua config file.  It does what people have been doing before, turning down the SYM, BRT and CONT settings, which are modestly helpful, though.  Also, check the ED news from earlier today

Thanks for putting that together, I'd also point out you can put the edited lua in a mod folder and use OVGME to add and remove it from the DCS install folder.  Useful since the edits will be returned to default if you repair or update (assuming it's not fixed at the next update) and if you have MFCD settings you'd like to keep as default

Good point, I do keep a mods folder on the desktop for when the updates happen
