Wow Gman, absolutely amazing.

The rock formations looks very nice!

Thanks for the tip about contrast.
I made the edit and changed 0.85 to 0.65 and maybe I see a small difference. What number does people that like the tweak use?

Its a matter of taste ... and monitor(s) I believe.

I think the number will vary based on each system and monitor.
A lower number is brighter...higher is darker. I'd just experiment to find the sweet spot.

If your monitor has an NVIDIA Control Panel you can adjust your Gamma up or down, but this is a global change that will affect everything you view on that monitor. It's a matter of choice.

I usually just use the P3D tweak when I want to lighten things up a bit. I prefer to keep the rich contrast, slightly lighter, but that's a personal preference.

Generally, for night flights, I use the tweak to enhance cockpit and ground lighting. In the Milviz 737 with the variable lighting or the QW 757 I much prefer the tweaked cockpit lighting. The light is much "warmer" using the tweak.

For my sceneries, I create the LM maps to render more richly with the tweak operating. The ground lighting really springs to life.

Overall...it's nice to have options until LM puts a slider into the lighting menu.

Thanks for the gamma tip. I adjusted it a bit. My FS-PC is FS only, so its not affecting anything.

Changing the value in hdr tweak to 0.65, was more than anything noticeable in the VC.

I will slowly find my own settings, which will be a compromise and then leave it there and concentrate on simming.

Currently using .75 on the tweak.

A small flight I made over Corsica yesterday, with the Dassault Mystere. I love that plane, I just wish it would get some photoreal repaints someday.

About to do my final turn to land on runway 18 at Solenzara airbase, visible under my fuel tanks...

Malibu43 your shots are epic

A sweet Swift landing at Nome.

BTW, I lowered the shading thing to 0.75 and I am happy with that. It does make a difference.

Thanks! Since switching over to P3D, it seems like every flight looks screenshot-worthy!

Dumonceau, Where would one procure this lovely what-if paint for the MilViz F-86?

Joe

**Dumonceau** · April 11th, 2015, 09:42

Hi Butcherbird,

I got it from Zsolt. I'll ask him if I can share it with you. or better still, I'll ask him to upload it here!

Take care,

Johan
