[Charlie122sq]

Svhkal have not IR texture in MT version, in standard works as it should

null

It looks like a sort of cheat now.  At dusk/dawn it's like having super hires night vision.  Kinda OP

[zerO_crash]

First and foremost, IT-23 (Shkval) doesn't have IR view, it is a black/white optical system.

 

As to your issue, it's stated at the bottom of the latest patch release notes, that IT-23 in Ka-50 (BSIII) will show colored image. This is a known issue.

I like it "broken".  </2¢>

I tried BS3 after MT update, and I cannot get a lock no matter what distance. Is this due to the color screen?

[eleventy]

If it's alive, I can still get a lock. If it's dead, it automagically still doesn't lock

That green shader over color image makes it look like some old documentary or something, pretty cool

[Flappie]

I cannot reproduce this issue. Is it fixed?

EDIT: reproduced and reported.

I have always seen the Shkval display as monochrome, sometimes greenish, sometimes greyish. Under MT now it displays full color.
While I'm not complaining about this luxury I suspect it's not meant to be this nice. Can an expert comment please?
I attach a screenshot which I took from an exported view for better quality. The display on the main monitor shows the same colours.

Really!!!

Being a KA-50 III pilot, I have to check this out in MT + OpenXR + SP missions and will report back ASAP.   

But thanks @LeCuvierfor the heads up...

It's already reported as a bug. See this thread: https://forum.dcs.world/topic/321349-skhval-wrong-texture-with-mt/#elControls_5172779_menu

I agree. Most bugs are nasty but this one is cute. And because it's so nice ED will probably fix it quickly.

I agree too...
Why ED always fix "good bug", but never fix "bad bug" ?

I love this "colored" Shkval ! Must use a mod to keep this bug now...

[everest101]

Not only should ED not fix this colored Shkval bug, but they should improve on it and add night vision to the Shkval. This would transform the KA-50 III into a night attack helicopter. 

Keeping the colored Shkval and adding night vision would be some SERIOUS improvement to this ship!!!

If the high fidelity pilots say No, No, don't touch this, them ED should just make Shkval colorization and night vision optional. Just untick the options to not use the color and night vision options...like that, everyone is happy!
