    How can i get my dashboards to light up like his ?
    I've updated to latest everything , running latest beta and have all settings maxed out including PP for these screens comparison and headlights on and off make no difference .
    Please if you know how to turn dash lights on, tell me .

    Do you have the newest version? You had to re-subscribe to it(I think).

    Try to race at afternoon. The version you subscribed is the newest.
    Maybe it's because of pp or reflection!?

    I've tried all PP settings, day/night, lights on/off.
    All pics and vids i see all have a glowing well lit motec
    But all are older except Jimmy's vid.
    Can anyone confirm that the motec on the Civic is lit or not after DirectX 11 please?

    Yeah i just saw this on discord. Well why is mine like in the screen shot in post 1? Ive tried everything i can think of.
    Thanks for confirming this with your DX11 vid.
    In other games i always turn my lights on so the motec is lit up, that doesnt work for me in rF2 and this means i cant race at night because i cant see my dash :(

    Sounds like a shader issue? Can't think what else would cause it.

    You shouldn't expect them to respond to every single query you have, you're getting help here and if it still fails then put in a bug report in the bug forum, simple.

    @2ndLastJedi Mine looks the same as yours. It is not just the Dashboard that looks different. The entire interior looks inferior (couldn't resist) to Jimmy's. He just has a better ride than us!
    I just tried changing settings from medium to high for "own car" and this made a big difference. Still not got proper lighting but improved. Only problem, I can't run that setting with anything other than me on the track!

    @2ndLastJedi The lit up dashboard is the old DX9 version. Lots of people, including Jimmy, still drive around with the DX9 version due to the convoluted rfmod system that keeps stuff installed even after you unsub. I think the dashboard light was reduced on purpose to be better compatible with the post FX glare, though I kind of agree it looks worse now (edit: real life dashboard seems blue as well).

    Because you`re refering to a 3 years old DX09 vid and compare that to the actual DX11 version?

    Okay, just Jimmy's vid confused me as it's supposed to be a new vid posted two daya ago.
    Even @TheMattyOnline vid must be using old version?
    S397 will sort it out i guess so we all have the same consistent stuff, eventually.
