night vision sight
My night vision device can't be used. Pressing the button doesn't respond. It can still be used normally before. Recently, it can't be turned on. Without the night vision device, I can't fly at night. If there is a friend who has solved the same problem, please give me some help. Thank you

We need more information. What plane are you talking about? There have been some recent updates that have made it so that the F/A-18C Hornet and F-16C Viper can't mount both the helmet mounted sighting system and night vision goggles at the same time in order to make it more realistic. Are you talking about those?

Yes, both my F18 and F16 can't use night vision, but I can still use it when I only have F18

Did you contact the ground crew to mount the night vision? You can not have HMCS and NVCS installed at the same time. You have to choose between.

I had the same thing for the Hornet yesterday. In the mission editor you have to choose "NVG" in the mission editor. Click on your plane, down side where you program the tacan and stuff on the right you will have 3 dots and change for nvg.

You can also change it when you're on the ground in the mission in case you forget, as Troll Norris said. You contact the Ground Crew, select the Helmet Mounted Device option, and choose between NVGs and JHMCS.
