bloom in 2024

Featured Replies

Does anyone know how to turn off the bloom effect. I'am not liking that to intense.

I don't think we can yet.  Maybe something in the useropt.cfg - I haven't looked hard enough yet.

During the day I don't mind it but it's annoying at night... way too overdone.

sounds good thx. hopefully thats it.

It made no change.  Weird.  I'm certain that would be the setting... from 1 to 0.

I really don't like the runway lights or cockpit buttons at night... they're super hokey.  It's like I'm looking at my sim through a star filter on my camera

Great plane the FSR M500 - but the buttons went nuclear on the overhead... the starry edge lights make me want to puke in my shirt!

I'm off topic, but for instance the steam gauge radio digit readouts in the 172 are too dim. Meanwhile the glass screens in the other 172 are extremely bright.

oh i know .  they need to put bloom setting back in.

No way to turn off bloom yet, eh? These night time radioactive instrument/button lights and runway/taxiway lights are ridiculous.

This needs to be like, one of the first things they "fix" - give a button to deactivate it.

This may be the place to mention that the canopy glass cover in the SR22T appears to be 'tinted' which spoils the use of this plane during the daylight for sight seeing . Anyone else notice this ?

I'm using the 2020 kodiak now for sight seeing.  surprised it works so well in 2024

A lot of other GA aircraft have the same problem..  We need a freeware "clean glass" mod.

At least your airport lights look decent. All of mine look pretty good except the blue ones, which look like late-90s lighting when 3d cards first came out. Godawful giant balls of purply-blue dithered disaster.

 

Based on the edge lines in your cockpit I think I found the exterior model of your plane. Bonus points to anyone who recognizes it. 😉
