Change of brightness/contrast when switching to HUD Only View

[f16sim]

Hi,

When switching from Cockpit View to HUD Only View (ALT + F1), there is a slight increase of brightness and/or decrease of contrast of the surrounding landscape.

Is there a way to get rid of this effect? Which lua file should I edit?

Thanks

This problem is related not only to this, sometimes also to the transition from F10 map to the cockpit, it is partially solved, but sometimes it still appears. It's best to record the track when it happened.

Thanks.

I have searched the installation folders for .lua files containing HUD_ONLY_VIEW but so far, I haven’t found where the brightness/contrast change is made.

I am trying to fine-tuning the image from my three projectors in HUD Only View and need to get rid of the brightness/contrast change.

That may have to do with the glass on the cockpit being slightly tinted

The attached image shows the problem in my simulator. The HUD symbols in the left part of the image is almost unreadable against a bright background.

So please, does anyone know, if it is possible to edit a .lua or a config file to get rid of the brightness/contrast change?

As a pitbuilder, I don't see any other options than using the HUD Only view so having some ways of customizing it, would be great for the pitbuilder community.
