    Well - I've given it my best shot ... but I just can't live with P3D HDR (RSP or not).   I'm not a professional photographer, but have worked as a graphic designer (don't ask for how long!!). I've s

    I'm not sure "bloom" exists as such in RL, but dazzling/blinding certainly does!!!   There's something not quite right in your setup if you think default P3D is "too red", IMHO. Interesting also tha

You may well have tried this tweak before, but this is my version of the modded shader. The light/dark and colour values have also been changed to more closely resemble FSX or early versions of v2.

I like to run as close to default as I can for simplicities sake.
