Rear view in FW190D
« on: July 06, 2017, 12:27:51 AM »
Baltic map   I noticed with my gamma turned to .9, all my hat switch views stayed the same as the gamma setting except the rear view looking at my tail.  In the rear view, the terrain and sky lightened more than the gamma setting.  Don't know if this is intentional or not.  Again, I was in a FW190D.

same thing happens in tanks when going from the commander position to the gunners position, the gamma jumps up.

Almost too much in the Baltic map jimmy regarding tanks.  I had gamma set at .9 and when I went into gunner's position in a M475, I couldn't read the white distance grid, because the ground terrain was too bright.  I missed vulching a few planes taking off at an airfield.   :confused:  In regard to the FW190D, there are no rear guns so I found it strange that the rear view would act like you were in the gunner's position.  I believe that the lightening is supposed to happen when you go into the gunner's position.

IRL I would expect the opposite in the gunners position, the optics should reduce the gamma not increase it. :D
