I saw this video and AI CPG is locking up targets no problem, but when I try it he never sees them. Is this possible or is this guy using some kind of hacks in this movie?

I don't know how latest version of DCS Hind works, but earlier night engagements were possible with illumination rockets.

We would either work in pairs, with one bird illuminating and other shooting, then switching roles, or you can illuminate for yourself, but it really does not give plenty of time to engage targets.

EDIT: After quick test,  Petrovich found target with half moon. With no moon he was not able to find that same target.

I'm not sure whether this is a bug, since even the best optics in the world will have some percent of light attenuation and I don't think Soviets put the best optics in Mi-24.

@BIGNEWYcan you check with the team if this is a bug or not?

Hi, 

I dont think this is a bug, it is a day attack helicopter as far as I am aware, but I will check with the team. 

thank you

I mean, is it a bug that Petrovich can see targets during the night at all (regardless of moon state)?

It’s from two years ago, back then things were changing patch to patch and sometimes we and sometimes not. 
 

Just use flares to target at night now

Thanks! Illumination rockets are lots of fun! Actually, flying this thing at night in general is a lot of fun!

Also I tried what you suggested, full moon vs half moon. What I noticed is that with half moon the AI CPG is able to see targets around the same distance, but is not able to identify what they are (just says "ground"). He gets identity of them at about half distance of when full moon.

Also has anyone noticed how gorgeous the game has become with the new volumetric clouds? I had rain and thick clouds, and you can actually see the light glow from distant city lights on the clouds it's really cool!

Also the taxi/landing light in the cloud soup look great 😄
