Light flashes somestimes while moving

Recommended Posts

Hi there!

I am playing day z since two days and I love it. But sometimes my display goes mad: When I enter a shadow or leave it the engine seems to overlight or underlight extremly. It's just like looking right into a flash bang or into deep night. The engine than pitches the brightness slowly to normal. Is this something related to the HDR? Has anyone experienced something similar?

My specs

CPU: Q9550

2 GB RAM

2x4870s in Crossfire mode

Cheers koppmoscha

You know, unless its an HDR/bloom bug, I'd actually say thats supposed to be some kind of simulation of going from a light to dark environment and how your eyes have to adjust. Because for me it generally happens when I either turn back towards the sun and catch some direct rays, or when I come out from tree cover.

that's not a bug.. that's meant to simulate real lighting.

However it is a tad over the top at the moment and it just needs a slight adjustment.

It's basically HDR, I'd say. That's why I hate Dusk / Dawn. Looking towards the sundown / sunrise, would make everything dark and hard to see, even if I can't actually see the sun.

ArmA 2 fails at simulating HDR, as both IRL and in Photography, HDR means that you can see everything at the same brightness level (e.g the skies look blue while the grass looks green, without any of them being dark or bright).

Yeah, I know the light effects of Arma 2, I played it for half an year. But this time, it is kinda out of control and to extreme. Sometimes I 've got a complete white screen... Is there a way to toggle off hdr? I can't find one in the options...
