reported earlier Main View Dimming

[Leg2ion]

Posted this here as unsure whether an overall 2.9 bug or related to the A10C2 (or Nevada for that matter)?

Have seen a similar post where I believe it had been declared as resolved - possibly linked to the weapons being carried?

I created a mission whereby my A10 was sat on the tarmac with no power no weapons in Nevada - purely so I could get some screen grabs of various instruments for Helios. Didn't pay much attention to things as I was zoomed in and trying to align my view squarely with the instruments, but there appeared to be a dimming overall around a minute after starting. So, went back into the mission, external view and zoomed out. Around 50 seconds in - bang - everything goes a little darker. Not sure whether it returns to normal as ran out of time - but have attached some screen shots (bottom one at mission start and upper after the dimming) and the trackfile.

This is a long standing issue impacting all maps and aircraft.

Sure I read elsewhere that this was linked to carrying certain weapons (though now cannot find that particular post) - and seeing as I have no weapons/power...?

Yes, I reported it in 2022. It's 60seconds, not 50 by the way.

I've just bumped the internal report.

Cheers @Flappie. I did say 'around'... Definitely not weapon related though?

I guess the question is which version is correct - the lighter/brighter version or the more colourful darker version?

No, it's constant.

Good question. I have no news to share for now.

Also had an issue whereby I started in a HAS/Shelter - and dependent on my view was getting intermittent shadows/sunlight when I looked down out of the cockpit. Obviously I didn't save the track - but will see if I can replicate it in due course - unless of course that is a known as well?

I don't remember seeing what you describe.

Ah - apologies. Different mission. Will have a play and see if I can replicate the issue and reply.
