reported Sun flare on cockpit glass is overdone

[Foogle]

Deleted and rebuilt shaders to make sure it wasn't just an artefact.
 

Huge white circle around sun blocks everything, looks like its projected onto the glass

Yikes, that is bad.  I see I'll be changing the time of day for alot of missions.

Same problem here, lens/flare effect is disabled. But still when compared to viper its way overdone and looks really bad : 
f1 on left viper on right - canopies closednull

Not only that, that effect also appears indoors (hanger), and easily shows how much it is overdone.

Cockpit looks fabulous, though, I love the instruments. Oh, and of course everything is labeled in the language of La Grande Nation, just to p*** off everyone else

Issue reported.

How is possible that after one month this isn't resolved ?? This is the most disturbing issue with the F1 right now for me, and probably is something that can be fixed easily by the developers.

It's a normal map error and here's a quick fix: adding the following 2 lines to the customized cockpit will address the issue

Locate the path to match what's in the following post, create the folders if they don't exist in the first place.

Then either you hand type everything i showed above or copy paste this one into the folder

Dont suggest you modify directly on the stock files. Recommend migrating all the customized liveries to the the dcs profile folder in C drive instead.

Could this little fix be rolled into the next patch please?

 

Can confirm it solves the problem.

Hi Guys,

It is fixed for the next update. Please take this meanwhile. Delete from TEXTURE ZIP the old format .DDS from Avionics-F1_NM.zip

I also encountered the extremely overdone sunglare/flare through the cockpit canopy... Which solution could workaround it for now? Will it be in next update?

It appears to still be an issue after the patch.

[ivanwong1989]

Yes seems to be an issue as well. Not in patchnotes as well. 

[Flappie]

@kontiuka Thanks for the heads up. I've just bumped the report.

[Get_Lo]

Still seems to be an issue for me
