Hey!

I am looking for a way to disable HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE rendering.
It is really bad. It happens that I just turn my view 5 degrees and the ingame lighting changes drastically. Its really annoying. Why waste performance for a feature thats rather disturbing than immersive?
Is it hard coded? Can it be altered? Can you support us with a tool to disable it? Did you (BIS) put HDR into the game because you were afraid of competition? Did you reckon its a must-have for new games? I dont know what made you decide to use HDR with no option to disable it, but its effet ingame is really really poor, so I rather play without any HDR at all. Additionally, there are some bugs with it too.

thx for reading, in hope for a reply...

cheers!

Set HDRPrecision=0; in arma.cfg to disable it.

Ondrej say Not :

HDRPrecision=0 is exactly the same as HDRPrecision=8 (there is no lower precision than 8b possible). You could try setting HDRPrecision=16 to get somewhat better color precision, with some more performance hit and FSAA not possible on almost any card. We did not enable this in the UI, as we did not see the quality difference significant enough.
