IL2 BOS graphic settings - bandit detection

[jippy13]

 

I'd like to improve the graphic settings of the game in order to better detect my opponent in the sky.

 

My real difficulty in the game is to spot my ennemy before him.

 

So in this post, I would like to get the best parameters to spot my foes on my screen. Which are the best parameters in the game, on my nvidia card and on my samsung screen ?

 

Thank you for your attention.

 

My hardware : intel i7 11700, rtx 3070, monitor curved samsung Odyssey G5 27" G55T (lc27g55tqubuxen)

  I'm not a guru by any stretch but it looks to me like you could run 4K with the right monitor? My old system runs 1440p decently but I've read that 4K is a giant leap in graphics quality.

 

  There's also a checkbox in settings for enhanced spotting that should help.

Thanks  Bill..

What is the Line I have to change in m'y config file for the 4k?

3840/2160 is 4k I believe. 

Your monitor has to be 4K capable also.
