rddaos Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 I am having trouble figuring out how to have enough light at night to make things look realistic. Using gamma = 2.5 makes night time so dark that it's literally pitch black - I cannot even see the battery master switch so I can turn it on to get enough light to start the plane up from cold and dark. With gamma = 2.5, things seem absurdly dark, so dark in fact, it's hard to tell where the land stops and the sky begins (ignoring the runway lights). Gamma = 4.0 is better, I can at least see a faint blue moonlight effect, yet it's still darker than true night conditions. And gamma = 2.5 just doesnt work for daytime conditions (gamma = 4.0 is waaaayyy to washed out and bright!!) See the attached screenshots with gamma = 2.5. Any ideas?Thanks...

andyw248 Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 There's a keyboard command, I think it's either 'i' or 'L', that let's you illuminate the cockpit so you can find the battery/master and light switches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris k Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 You may wish to also try re-calibrating your monitor. My external 24" shows everything much darker than my already-claibrated-by-the-factory Laptop Screen... just needed to up the brightness a little on the external and it was much improved.FWIW - I run at Gamma 2.8- CK.
