Works a treat, and looks a treat! It seems to be toning down the over-warming of the colour scheme generally. A significant improvement to all the colours, and I can confirm it works in VR too.

Unreal what this small thing does to the experience! Flew KPSP to KPHX tonight during sunset and was amazed. Switching back and forth and seeing the original… I can never go back to that. It was way to pink and orange like sherbert ice cream. This is amazing! Early morning and sunset flights look so different but so more realistic. Noticed in SU14 notes they do some tweaking atmosphere lighting and correction. It’ll be cool to see them implement this or add to it even!

It looks like Asobo is going to implement these colors into the simulator with SU14, which is due to release before the end of the year! So now these upgraded colors will be the standard!

Did you follow the instructions I included where you change 2 values in the .ini file from false to true? Did you also drag the .ini file into the Conent folder with the other 2 files? If so, that is strange. I am not sure it work but in the .ini file, you could try changing where INSERT is written in the .ini file to another button such as HOME. It might not work but it is worth a try. Let me know out of curiosity and plus it might help others with the same issue.

Yup, control over the Xbox version sadly is probably the reason they didn't.
