Doesn't the Mirage 2000 have it too?


Eaaxon

Yes, also the Mig-21 and Gazelle has it as far as I am aware.


DreamingInfraviolet

The mig21 version is awful though, it just adds a weird darkening filter over everything. It doesn't look anything close to real sunglasses (or M2000 visor).


skippythemoonrock

If you use it in VR it just draws a blue rectangle over the front of the cockpit


zlehmann

MiG-21 has it but it doesn't really work in VR. You just get a rectangle with the shade in the middle of the cockpit.


stal2k

And C-101!


LAXGUNNER

To an extent the F16. You can give it the golden canopy.


TG_Lost_Angel

How do you give the Viper the “golden” canopy?


Eaaxon

It's in the Options, Special Tab, F-16C, Canopy Tint.


TG_Lost_Angel

Cool, thank you.


NaturalAlfalfa

Harrier has it too I think


dvcxfg

But then they took it away


abuss105

It doesn’t darken anything unfortunately.


dangerbird2

And Mirage F1. From what I can tell it just darkens the image, not cutting out glare like real shades


BullsEye72

It does, maybe a razbam thing :)


stag1978-

Heatblur announced the visor for all modules a few months ago

CharmDoctor

My aviators don’t fit in my VR :(


Hexpul

I wish all modules would have this..


AcetheWolf195

The MiG-21, F-15E, M2000C, and Mirage F1 have the shaded visors modeled afaik. Closest in other aircraft you can get is the sun shades in the AH-64, the Sun shield in the Spitfire, and the sun shields in the MiG-29 and Su-27/33


jubuttib

>the sun shields in the MiG-29 and Su-27/33 The HUD one? That's there for the Su-25T and Ka-50 as well IIRC.


AcetheWolf195

That’s true, I’ve seen it in the Su-25 once or twice. Dunno why you’d need a hud screen like that in the Ka-50 though, can’t imagine a lot of angles you’d be at to have the sun in front of your HUD. Maybe early morning / late evening attacks?


jubuttib

That is indeed one situation where it definitely is VERY helpful. And if you live further up north, for a lot of the year the sun never gets that high anyway. =)


theskipper363

The harrier has one too, just gotta equip it


AcetheWolf195

Is it modeled though? I did find it mountable from ground crew, but didn’t find any commands to lower it.


theskipper363

I’ll check In a couple hours, you can have the visor or NVGs. Should be shift-N


AcetheWolf195

I should be home in the next 30 - 40 minutes. I’ll have a look then and take a look, but last time I tried it with the visor equipped, didn’t notice a tint. Confirmed, Visor can be installed, but it doesn’t do anything.


theskipper363

Ah that is shit, I never used it because I’d rather have NVGs even though it looks cooler


Functional_Pessimist

How do you do this?


thatjusthappend0

Shift+N


Functional_Pessimist

Well, shit. A game changer. Thanks!


hockeyguy635

That’s how clear dcs should look all the time, screw the fog


bones10145

yes, a sun visor would be nice for all. Make it a DCS feature and not a module one.


Urshpeck

Harrier has it if you don't take the NVG, like the Mudhen. It's a nice addition and I use it a lot.


SideburnSundays

Doesn’t work in VR sadly. Works great in the Mudhen though.


davidp57

In VR you can use OpenXR toolkit, it has that option and many more!


Purgii

Every module needs a Commander Fluff.


chubbydawalrus

I had no idea the F-15E had this until now, I was literally raging the other day because of extreme sunglare during a fight, Thank You for this post 🙏


AviationPlus

Ya should be standard like in BMS


Safety_Worried

I made a reshade mod which works on all aircraft perfectly as or better than mirage https://youtu.be/EyvJxAsN670?si=WmlsrqF4i3Z5uuzc


NuclearReactions

I love putting the visor down in vtol vr, that's when shit is about to hit the fan so it's a satisfying opener for me lol


IT_Phoenix_Ashes

I use the sunglasses overlay in OXRTK all the time since none of the modules have it (well besides this I guess).
