4.11 General debugging

[Lagarto]

Could you possibly provide a quick fix for the new lighting effects, namely restore the old ones? The new "changes to darkness of night" are terrible. I have to skip every third mission or so because it's too dark to fly. The sky is strangely dark with white clouds or the other way around. Clouds are occasionally solid brown, or white on top and coal black when you look at them from below. Quite distracting.
Yes, I know it's been reported before.

Of course you are correct. This problem has affected a number of my coop missions. As you mentioned, DT is aware and so there is not much more we can do.

I think we need to be patient and let DT handle the situation. We all want 4.11 to be perfect, but these things take time. Hang in there.

What's wrong with this? Clouds do look clearer from top when there is a full moon. And IL2's nights are always full moon...

The start of the mission is at 14:15 (02:15 PM), that's what's wrong with this.

Flying the Beaufighter on the Burma map both Pedro & myself had grey square patches on the cockpit glass instead of the bullet holes.

Also Would it be possible to put a map dimmer in the next update as in night flights the regular lighting on the map messes up your night vision ?

This is a bit old, but I was wondering if we could get a proper configuration file for the i-15 in order to select whether or not it carries wheel spats. I think a few other planes are missing this feature, but I can't remember which.

This is achieved by pressing Shift F1 from the bomber's chair



Iron sight is kinda useless on the MC 202 (not a good photo, but the aim point is too high)
