  1. Since we have initiated the 24 hour clock in the Large AO's build, many people are having terrible problems with the NVG's working correctly. Basically, you turn them on and in a 3-5 seconds, they dim so much that they're basically useless. I know you can look up or at a bright light source to "recharge" them however, they dim right back down in a couple of seconds. This really is an issue at night when you're trying to fly a chopper full of Troops into a new LZ and your NVG's go tits-up.

     

    I'm not sure if this post belongs here or in the addon request thread, though it is in response to the NVG issue. I believe fixing it is in adjusting the aperture; that's what a mod I use in singleplayer does. There is a default NVG aperture and you can trigger an action from your menu that by using the "page up"/"page down" keys to manually adjust the aperture. I also like using mod that allows full screen NVG. Both a signed, though the "NVG aperture adjustment" mod requires Community Based Addons (CBA).

    All three mods have server keys and are all client side only.

     

    I thought of requesting these in the addon thread before, though there was no need to at the time since the server was mostly played in the daytime setting; I'm just trying to help with the NVG issue because I know how annoying it is for your screen to go dark when ever the slightest light source penetrates your screen. There's also a client side only mod with a server key that adjusts the lighting and fires in the game; my experience has noted a great improvement in using NVGs around lighting.

    I do know it is possible to script an action in the action menu that changes the aperture, or I think it may be called HDR. This is what another server (Don't judge me; I play what I like <_< ) I enjoy playing on does; the mission is called "TotalDomination" (it at least has those two words in the name) if anyone wants to join that server to download the mission and check out the scripting.
