Bad halo/fog when night flying with Pimax Crystal Light

Featured Replies

I currently have a problem with my Crystal Light, which I only discovered recently as I started to do more night time flying. When it gets dark outside, I get terrible light bleeding/halo from all lightly illuminated elements in the picture. For example, when flying through clouds, then there is that fog/light bleeding around the entire window frame. Same with the armrests in the Fenix which are still slightly illuminated from the overhead panel. Therefore, night time flying isn't dark at all and the picture looks terrible. On the internet, there are so many people claiming that the Pimax Crystal Light has great black levels. Unfortunately, not for me. Does anyone know what the problem could be or how to solve it?

This sounds like the local dimming feature of the CL. I've seen it when playing Elite Dangerous which is night all the time.

I haven't seen it in MSFS because I rarely fly in the dark, and I don't know how to turn it off.

I did some night flights a weeks ago with the HP G2, and I had a problem with only one lens showing like a fake haze and the other well, the solution was to start the flight in daytime and then with the slider set the night hour.

Thanks for the suggestions. I used the tip from the reddit post (adjusting the profile.json) together with the TruNite preset from the OpenXR toolkit. Now night flying is much better. Thanks!
