Cockpit shadows too dark

Recommended Posts

Hi!

I have searched for this, but haven't found a satisfactory answer...

I would love to use X-Plane 11 more, but I can't figure out how to adjust the cockpit shadows so that I can actually see my panels through them! I found references to adjusting the Gamma in XP10, but nothing about XP11. I can't possibly be the only one with this problem, but I can't find a mention of it. Can anyone shed a little light (pun intended!) on this subject??

Thanks!

Hello Russ,

You might be able to use the Nvidia control panel to change your monitor display settings.

 I know how you feel about X-Plane 10, it's so better with the brightness modes.

"Nvidia Control Panel, select "adjust desktop color settings," go to section 2, select use Nvidia settings, go to last option (gamma): adjust to taste. There ya go."

You can try to install DataRefTool, find shadow related datarefs and play with their values, then use FlyWithLUA NG and a simple script to make the change persistent.
