RG66 Posted June 26 Posted June 26 (edited) Hi everyone. I am having an issue with the MFD on the F4E. Starting the program in instant action free flight and airborne with jester on normal scan mode, after a few minutes of flying, the MFD turns an extreme bright green and becomes unreadable (without any input changes from me). I am running a single monitor with NVDA 4080 and winwing Orion 2 Throttle and VKB joystick. I do not have an exported MFD so that is not the issue. Have not had this issue before and would greatly appreciate and help/suggestions. Edited June 26 by RG66
Solution Kang Posted June 26 Solution Posted June 26 Bit odd, innit. Have you tried if the (in-game) screen adjustements do anything? Like the Brightness and Contrast knobs? If they do I would suspect maybe they are accidentally bound to something and thus running away to max (or min). 1
RG66 Posted June 26 Author Posted June 26 Thanks Kang. Yup, tried the adjustments, but can’t get it even close to normal after it goes bright on me. What is even stranger, it doesn’t start out with the problem, It starts out fine and goes bright after just a couple of minutes of flying.
Kang Posted June 27 Posted June 27 Does it coincide with anything you do? It might be that a control has been set to something you actually use for something else. Perhaps check the controls list, especially 'DSCG contrast dec' and there is also an axis setting for that knob. Called something like '[Simpit] screen contrast'. 2
RG66 Posted June 27 Author Posted June 27 Yeah, I just tested and set the aircraft on AFCS and alt hold. After a few minutes wham, the screen goes bright green. So strange as this problem seems unique to me. I have searched and seems that some folks get the issue with an exported MFD and multiple monitors but that is not the case for me. I wonder if it's my WinWing throttle causing the issue. I may try to uninstall the module and reinstall to see if that does anything. Very frustrating.

A repair does the same thing.Like others have mentioned, double check something hasn't been bound by accident.Cheers! Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk 1
Zabuzard Posted June 27 Posted June 27 We have seen this issue in the past with people who had some specific mods (cant recall which though). So yeah, I would try to exclude mods and run a repair as well. 2
RG66 Posted June 27 Author Posted June 27 Solved guys. Thank you for all the support and suggestions. Turns out the wheel on the left side of my new WinWing Orion 2 had been auto bound to the screen contrast and after a little while of flying would kick-in and override the MFD contrast control. 1

Excellent! Yeah, the autobinding DCS does is known for catching people off guard!Cheers! Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk 1
