STRS MFD Display
HUD Displays

IRMAV

Cockpit mirror improvements

Bug fixes included:

VR Pilot view black screen when using OpenVR/SteamVR
Glitching cockpit shadows
Flicker when using MFD containing a 3D Display

The next couple couple of minor updates (v813.6/7) will continue with A/G work. These will include:

FLIR

Heat based rendering rather than the current gray scale (which gets dark at night :) )
HUD FLIR display

with the 24hr rendering FLIR display becomes much more useful

HARM

HARM display of detected emitters/threats
updated HARM flight code

TDC (Target Designator Control)

finalising TDC use and assignment between Radar MFD/ HUD/ IRMAV/ TPOD
removal of target pod slew controls

uses TDC when it is assigned to TPOD

Weapon release tone

volume set via rotary control on ACNIP panel

Improved cockpit illumination
AV8B cockpit updates

After the final A/G weapons/Avionics updates are released we'll move on to the v814 series updates which will add the in-mission tactical display. After that we're on to single missions.

Here are some screenshots of v813.4/5
