The sun is too bright and hurts my eyes
« on: December 20, 2012, 08:36:08 AM »
I wish there were an option to turn the sun down for those with sensitive eyes like me.  Washing the screen out is fine when looking at it, but it doesn't need to be so bright to where my eyes hurt. :frown:

 :pray


PS: I already have my contrast and brightness set very low on my monitor but it's still a problem.

Wear sunglasses, quit whining.

PS, change your Alpha setting in graphic options.

It is historically correct, so no....

Change your heading a couple of degrees so the cockpit frames block the Sun and the problem is fixed.

Considering how bad of a pilot you are midway, the sun is the least of your problems.

I know about moving my head position, but in a fight or moving around, I can't keep it blocked.   I just would like it turned down some.   Will look into the alpha setting, whatever that is.

Thank you. :salute

But I like climbing into the sun to blind the person behind me. It's gotten me out of a few sticky situation before.

The sun in your eyes is a good thing.  That way you can't see them see you coming. :D

Yeah, I'd say the sun has been around for a hell of a long time, too.  :lol

I think it's great that it blinds you by washing the screen out, it's just the intensity of the brightness I wish would decrease. :frown:
