Hi guys. is it possible to activate Night Vision Goggles so that you can see your cockpit panels etc? I know in P3D there is a sensor capability which shows either white hot or black hot but it doesnt show the aircraft either interior or exterior. In FSX, there used to be a reshade filter that you could toggle to have a pretty great NVG capability. However, I am pretty happy with my P3D visuals, and dont want to install reshade just for this. Is there a gauge etc, that can be used for NVG?

For anyone who wants to add Night Vision goggles type effects and have their virtual cockpit visible etc, I share the info below. Oliver Binder (lorby) was super helpful in figuring this out on the prepar3d.com forums.

[FONT=&quot]I added the VC night vision camera view as below, and an external NVG view as well. Personally, I think LM should add these in 4.5 :) (For anyone else who uses these cameras below, make sure to change the camera definition numbers to the next ones in series for your sim.) [/FONT]
