Don't know why this might be, but I get about 15 fps less(i may be doing something wrong...) with the Mod installed across the board.  Also when I use the default zoom function in the game my fps drop to solid 10, only while zoomed in.  Is there any way to isolate the part of the mod that works with the sun glare (which works perfectly) and break it out - so that one can avoid the frame rate reduction? Thanks for your help.

that's strange...the mod eats some fps but not so much. Especially for the zoom function. Let's hope that devs integrate better zoom in next version. They asks some questions regarding zoom some weeks ago.

I hope so too. Let's hope the beta testers can sum up the places to work on orderly and in structured fashion, so eventually over time and time the devs can check them off as done.

Yeah, i'm also experiencing this issue. played a MP match where soviets started flying towards the sun and the first 10 min were quite painful.

ive not been in a light aircraft for some time but even as a car passenger the sun can be delibitating to a degree.

 

is it the "star" lensflare that's too large?

I have just gone from the Odessy + to the Pimax 5k+ with my first real flights today.  The Sun glare in the Pimax I would say is 10x worst than the Odessy.  In the Odessy I could manage it and still find my folks in formation and such but in the Pimax it completely glares out the FOV and is more or less unplayable in my opinion.  I will have to do some settings adjustment still but I do not foresee it changing the sun any unfortunately.

The issue is with the game, it starts glaring the sun as soon as it enters rendering. Which means, with the FOV on the Pimax, that is quite early. Index too.

 

Temporary work-around: Set ingame gamma to 0.7 via startup.cfg and All Color Gamma in PiTool .180 to -2 gamma. That should help it. If you increase contrasts in PiTool, increase contrasts of Green and Red to +1. Blue to 0.

 

They said they would work on these things in the future, maybe next patch, maybe the one following. Jason has gotten a Pimax as well!
