Enhanced Atmospherics at night: no stars, plane reflections

Featured Replies

I'm not using any third-party shaders.

 

EA at night is totally dark, the stars are super-faint. And for some reason some light is reflecting on my plane. Don't see a moon either.

I've flushed the shaders to be sure but again: I never even installed third party ones. Any ideas what's going on there?W4tJbY2.jpg

Yeah, I did eventually find some stars. Quite faint, though.

Apparently the plane's weird glow at night is a known bug?

I have never seen the faint glow on my flights.

the "Glow" is a known bug and is related to the PBR Maps of the aircraft in combination with flying at higher altitude and EA enabled. I disabled auto exposure in the HDR settings to reduce it a bit for now

Anyone know if there's been any progress made on this, or work arounds?

Check out my repaints and downloads, all right here on AVSIM

Only workaround will be from LM via v5.2.
