P3D v5 and v5.1 Dark Texturres

Question

Dear All&#010;I use Window 10, 64-bit Prof, P3D v5.1, latest nVidia drivers with 2x 1070 video cards.&#010;P3D v5 and v5.1 display photoreal textures (the most) much darker than v4. Differnences between dark colors and lakes are nearly not to see. Can I change this with EnvShade ? Also my beamers have more green tint in neutral than before.  Can I change this with EnvShade ?&#010;&#010;Thanks for any assistance !&#010;Peter&#010;&#010;&#010;

Dear Maxime

Thanks for for feedback. I found some posts in forums claiming visual is much darker than P3D v4. On TFT screens we can easy change this, with beamers is much harder as we struggle anyway with brightness. Tweaking this may be an interesting feature for all simmers using beamers.

We know that usually color corrections is done inside the beamers: However this may be interesting to do it with envshade.

Tahnks & regards, we can close this matter

Hello @Peter Kruesi ,

Envshade indeed tweaks the terrain textures, however there's not (yet) any customization option for this so you can't make your own changes to the terrain.

As for the beamers, Envshade cannot really change that however as it's written in the special effect config file, but that's something we could add to Envtex special effects :)
