Not holding gamma setting in tank sight
« on: November 08, 2016, 03:11:04 PM »
When you go to the Sight in a tank the gamma goes so bright you can not see the sight at all when against a light background. This is making GVs nearly unplayable. It does not help to change gamma settings either. You can also still not see tracers when zooming and that is in either aircraft or GVs.

All I can tell you is about 2 updates ago something happened that totally screwed up my tank sight. I zoom-in in commander view everything looks fine. I select the graduated sight (mode 2) and any light colored terrain or the sky become so bright it washes out all markings in the sight. Never used to do this.

Just tried an M4. Sight washes out so bad it is not usable. Guess I'm done till they fix it or give some kind of advise on how to make my tank sight usable again.
See ya later fellas.

Switching to the black sight really helps

You may have to map it to one of your stick buttons, but there is "Global Sight Mode Toggle" that switches the scale from white to black.

I will give the black sight a try thank you, but this issue really needs to be fixed and like I said before this was not a problem until very recently.

I just mapped out the switch today, because I was firing into the sun. The change cause a contrast shift and then the view appears to be more like HDR, by which I mean it is like a few other games where the focal point changes light intensity. Handy at least.
If you like the Sick Puppy Custom Sound Pack the please consider contributing for future updates by sending a months dues to Hitech Creations for account "Chalenge." Every little bit helps.
