nrgized Posted February 26, 2017 Author Posted February 26, 2017 There's only screenshots attached to your post, did you forget to attach the mod itself or is it available elsewhere? I only posted preview screenshots its not finished yet. Heres a video of a moonless night... The noise still needs work but should give a decent idea of the changes.

Razor18 Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 Apart from the effects I think the green is a little off but as to the correct shade I'll leave that to the experts who've witnessed it first hand. I second that, if "green" night vison, then it should look more green than grey.
ST0RM Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 I worked on NVG systems for a number of years in the USAF, prior to my flying career. Your mod is close, but as has been mentioned, the color needs more green. And the sides should have a vignette. Binocular night optics still cant give a full like the panoramic NVGs do. The condition you mentioned (no moonlight/low light) causes noise or scintillation. Also, we often saw a honeycomb like pattern during higher light levels. Light blooms from cities or non-NVG light sources are another problem. Looking forward to your future progress. 1
the_soupdragon Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 (edited) He's back. Looks great. I will reiterate what the others have said a bit more green and it will be fantastic. Great work. Is it going to be editable as a monocle version too? Like your earlier version (which I still use BTW) SD Edited March 9, 2017 by the_soupdragon [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Leutnant_Artur Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 Grate looking ! :) Any estimate time to release ? [sIGPIC]Luftgangsta[/sIGPIC]
nrgized Posted March 14, 2017 Author Posted March 14, 2017 The color of the NVGs in the new test images is a place holder while I work on the real major change(s) to the mod. The two main features of the updated mod are color corrections specific to brightness and the use of LUTs (look up tables). Being able to sample a photograph and mimic its color palette has long been my goal since I started the mod. I've to built a system that allows me to sample an image and generate a 2d LUT of which is then used by the NVG system for coloring the image. That way I don't have to fight back room colorists and directors about what green looks correct. I deal with that enough at work :). The attached image shows the sample on the left, sample generated LUT in the middle, and finally a rough (none of the brightness specific color correction enabled) sample of DCS. Creating your own personalized NVGs would only require you to generate a LUT image and place it in the NVG mod.

fargo007 Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 Does this still work with current versions, and is it still maintained? The name of the file "graphics" doesn't exist anymore, it's graphics.lua, and the referenced section inside it doesn't exist anymore. Have fun. Don't suck. Kill bad guys. https://discord.gg/blacksharkden/
wolfbaron Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 we really need the original Mod folks to bring this alive , i need this in my night mission : )
Raab Posted June 7, 2022 Posted June 7, 2022 last post is 2017-10-02 so this discussion is , probably, completely outdated and the NVG MOD not working anymore
