AH Filmviewer novice needs help!
« on: June 01, 2009, 06:11:09 AM »
I've been filming my sorties in the DA in the hopes of improving my skills and all my films are to dark to be of use.  I thought I saw something somewhere about the clock setting in the DA being the cause of this but I am not sure.  What can I do to make my films viewable as the filmviewer has no brightness settings and the DA clock cannot be change (at least I see no way to do it).  Anyone have some suggestion?  I sure would appreciate it!   :salute

Thanks,

That is interesting. I don't hang in the DA so it's not possible for me to assist you. What equipment (PC, Vid card, etc)
Is it dark while you fly normally?

No, it's daylight when I fly ingame and this occurs whether I play on my main computer or my laptop so I assume it has to be a setting somewhere in the game that needs adjusting.  Someone recommended I change the time in the offline arena but that hasn't helped either.  The clock in the DA tower shows 12:00 and when I filmed our FSO's they came out dark as well.  If anyone has any suggestions I would really appreciate it.

I took 2 screen captures from my AH Film Viewer to show what I am getting, this is definitely not how the game looks when I'm playing.

I did fly in the DA when the Arenas went down a while back-week or two ago-and the time is fixed in the arena. Have you tried to see if there was a trainer or AH Rep online there? Maybe it's an arena setting where the time does not move.
