"Night Mode" Request

Featured Replies

Hello,I have a dual monitor setup. When I fly, FS is in my Main monitor, and my second monitor has my FSNav map, Squawkbox, Servinfo (occasionally), and of course Active Sky 6.FSNav makes itself dark after a set time, Squawkbox is black to begin with, and I can define custom colors in Servinfo (or minimize it, since I don't use it that often). I also have a custom windows color set that I use during night flying.While this all sounds very silly, having the second monitor be very bright (even with the room lights off) completely kills my night vision, not to mention my main monitor gets a bit "glarey" for lack of a better term. If I turn the second monitor off (or have everything in "night mode," my view on the main monitor drastically improves.Unfortunately, one program hinders this - Active Sky. While 6 is better than ASV and ASV enhanced, it's still rather bright.Would it be possible to create a "night mode" texture, with something like dark red background with black text or something along those lines? Obviously it would be mostly unreadable during the day, but at night with the lights out it would be pretty easy to read.I would be able to quit minimizing it all the time, and keep it open where it is useful to me.Is this possible for you to create? Or, maybe I missed an option somewhere where I can set custom colors/background image or something?Thanks a lot,-stefan

Ok.I would love that option - I'd probably fly more at night ;) It wouldn't be too hard to implement, either, since you'd only need it for the main screen - I doubt anyone keeps the options and/or AE open during an entire flight.Thanks,-stefan

HI Stehan,For visual in ASG, you can keep always the same night sky color clouds, environment etc. by creating your own theme, you will always have the same setup each flight. Ps: AE do not exsist anymore.ThanksChris Willishttp://www.hifisim.comhttp://sales.hifisim.com/pub-download/asv6...development.jpg http://sales.hifisim.com/pub-download/asv6-banner-proud.jpghttp://sales.hifisim.com/pub-download/asv6-banner-beta.jpg
