Post by: MANDO on April 08, 2005, 04:46:17 PM: Most of my play time, it is very very dark, very dark or dark.

Post by: DaddyAck on April 09, 2005, 07:58:06 AM: I have rarely had a problem with the glare or as mentioned below ambient lighting. :)

Post by: MANDO on April 11, 2005, 02:46:11 PM: bumping gamma ruins all the visuals, the lack of contrasts is even more acentuated.

In other words your problem is that your just not a big enough airplane nerd.
