BastiScholz Posted February 3, 2022 Posted February 3, 2022 Hi everybody! I am using Helios for exporting my cockpit controls on a secondary touchscreen. Most of the stuff works really well. Howewer, the exports of the F18 screens are way too dark on my secondary screen. I get it, it´s another screen, but when i activate fullscreen mode in the settings, i get all my exports on the same screen. And even then, they are too dark, as you can see in the pic below. Problem is: I can brighten them up in the cockpit but then, in some missions, the in-cockpit screens are way to bright to read them. Especially the TGP. I know, there are some other threads out there relating to this problem. But they are maybe out of date or don´t include any solutions. Can you help me?! Greetings
agrasyuk Posted February 3, 2022 Posted February 3, 2022 can you post your monitors.lua ? PS It's not Helios that exports the screens. rendering of those viewports is done by DCS itself. Helios is just a convenient way to configure configure the respectie lua file so DCS knows where to place those viewports. Anton. My pit build thread . Simple and cheap UFC project

Which directory do i have to look for? Or do you maybe mean helios.lua? Or graphics.lua? I pinned it below. H_A10CII_v1.0b.lua Helios.lua graphics.lua Edited February 4, 2022 by BastiScholz typo
JohnB Posted February 11, 2022 Posted February 11, 2022 I would be very interested in a solution to this darkness issue too. Cheers John
Ben-111 Posted February 22, 2022 Posted February 22, 2022 Mine is exported fine. As above. You don’t use Helios for the MFDs. You update the DCS LUA file manually. All render perfectly. and. I run Helios and Custom LUA for my pit. Is also an issue the “view angle” of the screen you use. Some won’t work good at the wrong angle. Is it bright if viewed from a different angle.
