Title: Night Ops Videos
Post by: SPC (Ret) T. Lee on January 14, 2016, 12:24:30 PM
 I would like to make a suggestion to you guys that are making videos of night ops. Would it be possible
for you to film with your NVGs turned on so those watching the combat footage can see what's going on around you or would it be an immersion killer for you?

Thanks for your time and efforts in providing them for us to enjoy.

I noticed that during the last FTX my in game brightness was much higher than what was filmed. NVGs were not required during the FTX because you could see just fine with moonlight. However, when I saw the video uploaded to YouTube it was very dark and difficult to watch. I am not sure if this is my video capture software, video editing software, or something that happens when I upload to YouTube. I'll look into this further.

It's youtube, if you go to your video and edit it there's an option somewhere to like "Auto Correct Lighting" and it fixes it, i'll try to find it and give you a screenshot wait 1

Sorry, it's actually when you view your own video, the second from the left option, then click the highlight button here

Sgt Storm can you go back and make the posted correction and re-post the film?
