Green filter / NVG?

[madvad 583]

Guys, 

I was flying the F/A-18F at night and I realized that I was able to see well despite the darkness outside, and I noticed that this aircraft has a green filter inside the cabin simulating an NVG.
How can I recreate this same effect on other aircraft, so I can fly in darkness?

I looked at cockpit.ini but didn't find anything that I could identify.

Below I have attached screenshots of the same moment, showing the difference between looking at the darkness from outside, and looking from inside the cockpit.

It was some editing of the inner light color, it's in the cockpit.ini, under this:

NightLightOn=0.25
NightLightColor=0.0,1.0,0.0,0.7

set the nightlighton to 0.55

makes it come on 'earlier'

I tried.
i copy the same data from the F/A-18F to another plane and when I went to see, what happened was that the entire panel of the aircraft turned green instead of the red light, and I still couldn't see anything outside.

Strange.

Anyway, I'll keep trying, thanks!

It's not refined like simonmiller416's filter, but that's what I found out, and it's not apparently workable in other aircraft. It just very well be that the Super Hornet lighting system allows it, while others don't.

Yes, that's what I noticed. On the Super Hornet the filter applies to your eye, you look outside the aircraft and see everything with the green filter... when I tried to change it on other aircraft, it only changed the color of the panel lighting, if you look outside it remains darkness.

But thanks for your reply, saved me time trying to do the impossible
