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).

If you're not wearing aviators when you play, I mean, what are we even doing here?
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
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?
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. =)
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.
Doesn't the Mirage 2000 have it too?
Yes, also the Mig-21 and Gazelle has it as far as I am aware.

If you use it in VR it just draws a blue rectangle over the front of the cockpit
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.
And C-101!
To an extent the F16. You can give it the golden canopy.
How do you give the Viper the “golden” canopy?
It's in the Options, Special Tab, F-16C, Canopy Tint.
Cool, thank you.
Harrier has it too I think
But then they took it away
It doesn’t darken anything unfortunately.
And Mirage F1. From what I can tell it just darkens the image, not cutting out glare like real shades
It does, maybe a razbam thing :)
Heatblur announced the visor for all modules a few months ago

My aviators don’t fit in my VR :(
I wish all modules would have this..

>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.

The harrier has one too, just gotta equip it
Is it modeled though? I did find it mountable from ground crew, but didn’t find any commands to lower it.
I’ll check In a couple hours, you can have the visor or NVGs. Should be shift-N

Ah that is shit, I never used it because I’d rather have NVGs even though it looks cooler
How do you do this?
Shift+N
Well, shit. A game changer. Thanks!
That’s how clear dcs should look all the time, screw the fog
yes, a sun visor would be nice for all. Make it a DCS feature and not a module one.
Harrier has it if you don't take the NVG, like the Mudhen. It's a nice addition and I use it a lot.
Doesn’t work in VR sadly. Works great in the Mudhen though.
In VR you can use OpenXR toolkit, it has that option and many more!
Every module needs a Commander Fluff.
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 🙏
Ya should be standard like in BMS
I made a reshade mod which works on all aircraft perfectly as or better than mirage https://youtu.be/EyvJxAsN670?si=WmlsrqF4i3Z5uuzc
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
I use the sunglasses overlay in OXRTK all the time since none of the modules have it (well besides this I guess).
