  4. No night vision
  5. Equip my rifle with 1PN51 scope attached. No night vision when I bring rifle up. I double check battery. It is not flat.
  6. I check integrity of game files - no change.
  7. I increase brightness - grey screen
  8. I move around in game, I can hear myself moving.

Event Timeline

So a little extra information today - managed to get onto the server during daytime and same problem. Pitch black. Also black screen when I enter the game at the beginning (where you see your character and get the option to play).

I have tried removing helmet, balaclava and eye glasses - no change. I have already verified my installation.

I then tried changing my video settings and my main menu screen appeared! Went into the game and my main menu screen appeared again (wtf). But I could still hear my player moving about.

Checked my video card drivers - all up to date. I suspect a reinstall is on the cards but if anyone has any further suggestion I would appreciate you sending them my way.

Gopher_nz renamed this task from Night vision not working at night time - includes NVG and 1PN51 to Black screen only fixable by switching off hardware anti-aliasing.

Hello everyone.
It appears that the cause of the issue is actually a combination of Hardware Antialising and Ambient occlusion being set to either medium or high. Can you please confirm?

Hello everyone.
The issue has been fixed internally and will be fixed on Steam in one of the future updates.
