Hello, can someone help me with NVG settings? I've known for a few years how to increase and decrease the brightness of the view, but I'm wondering if there's a blur setting. I think the view should be clearer than the default.

Yeah even years ago it wasn't hard to see with them. I haven't flown at night recently, but NVGs are well... weird sometimes.

These NVGs in the A-10 are very bad during a full moon night, I don't know what they are like in the real world, but on full moon nights they are almost useless, I liked the old NVG from the beginning of the DCS A-10C better,The pilot's view was much clearer and was not limited by the circle and with a rather broad view,which is this picture below.

I've never worn PVS-15s, mainly 7s and -14s, so it's a bit limited, but usually it is a bit clearer in regards to ambient light, so I would say that this is a bit odd though.

These goggles are far more realistic than the full screen NVG.  Have you tried adjusting the gain on them?  I have to fine tune it depending on the ambient light constantly

That is EXACTLY how they how they behaved when I used the 3rd generation monoculors and binoculors in the late 2010's. Full moon light is why most great battles were waged through the millenia. Enough light to see your footing and the enemy up close but not enough light for them to detect you when you didn't want them too. NVG's in full moon light had to be turned way down in intensity and even then were mostly useless which is when we broke out our IR detectors but only had a few of them.
