Oh, Filou….the quill you’re typing with is low on ink…

Oh, scotchegg...Given your comment, I still have a good quantity left.

So easy for me.

I had to Ascend to 1000 feet once just to transit over the country

careful there, very dangerous, at 1.000 feet you can still CFIT. Vaalserberg is a mountain peak at an elevation of 322.7m (1,059ft) above the sea level, located in the province of Limburg in the Netherlands. At this elevation it’s the highest point in mainland Netherlands.

I don't see why not. It's free to download so give it a go!  It puts some patterns on screen, then you adjust the sliders to match the examples on screen.

My monitor is HDR600 so can't display the full brightness MSFS is pushing out.  The HDR tool finds out the darkest and brightest signal your monitor can display.  It saves the results as a display calibration that loads each time your PC is booted.

Worked perfect, cheers. Along with the DLSS 3.5 file and new sky colours it’s way better now.

A couple of short clips thrown together of my first flight in SU13 with the color hack.

the sea level varies by about "1.5" meters between low and "1,5" meters high tide. This sea-level variation makes it difficult to calculate the percentage of The Netherlands below sea level.

Only the south of the Netherlands is above sea level. Luckily we have the best dikes you can have. 😎

Here's some shots from HDR using MortThe2nd's values of 0,00508, 0,00318, 0,0 and taken with the Xbox Game Bar app (Windows+ALT+PrintScreen) which creates non-DHR PNG files suitable for sharing.

After calibrating my HDR monitor last night using the app from the Windows store that was pointed out in the other thread (thanks @iFlySimX!) it was too late to try out a sunset flight since it had already gotten dark here, so I got up at the but-crack of dawn for a flight to see the dawn sky colors even though it's my first day off in two weeks and I really wanted to sleep in.  But it was worth it!  The horizon "depth" looks and feels so much more authentic now, hard to capture in a screenshot.  Thanks @Biology!

How can you edit and save the edited .exe if it's encrypted and protected?

People cannot even copy it outside of its folder... I am just reasoning based on what people wrote in the forums, I have the Steam version.

You can edit it, read further back in this post, there is an easy way to de-crypt it.

May I ask if you would you be willing to expand on what this DLSS 3.5 file might be please? I'm looking to enhance my HDR environment as much as possible,. Thank you in adfvance,
