The image is over exposed , if you think about the colours of the spitfire it needs to be darkend up quite a bit!

You do know this picture has been taken with probably a smartphone or a digital camera so there's no way you can judge colours/saturation or any other aspects of the image quality from that picture. Of course the spitfire isn't as bright as it seems in that pic. We also don't know what settings the monitor has and anybody with any LCD/LED monitor knows there are tons of settings to tweak the image with.

Your response suggest that I am commenting on the image being produced by SOW. I am not!

I am commenting on the image being produced by the camera, which too me, looks over exposed. It is not a fault with the simulator it's the recording process.

When I've converted the image to greyscale without any other alterations it looks like this.


It still looks over exposed and grainy. As said many times before, dinky cameras in mobile devices are not very good at representing this sort of information.

When I adjust the shadows and highlights I end up with


We start to get detail in the white areas and more depth in the dark. To me this says that the image captured the camera was over exposed.



Winny, did you do any other processing to your image?

Cheers!

Simple misunderstanding then and I agree with the camera shot, it's over exposed so no judgment on the games visual quality can be made

And..

Most if not all picture's a and video need white balance fixed as regards the monitors..

That's why they have a bluish cast to them.

Think of an external of this quality.

Yes, totally agree.

We have to look at the video taken directly from the game to better evaluate colors ecc. ecc.. Dover looks great from Moscow, i would like a video from the game too as for the Emil cockpit that is insane to look at, really great.

I took that post down you must have caught it just in time Veltro...good for you


Some of those web cams were fine and some were terrible but I don't think you can judge too much by then either than the basic game it's self if you get my drift.
