## 1. Overview

### 1.1 Multiple Generation NVGs
Adds different night vision devices with varying image quality and field of view. New Classnames for Generations 1, 2, and 4 NVG's (default Arma 3 NVG's represents Generation 3) and a wide view NVG.

### 1.2 Blending effects
Adds a blending effect depending on ammunition type when firing while using a night vision device. Especially tracer rounds are bright, but you can use the IR-dim tracers from the Ballistics module to reduce tis effect.

### 1.3 Brightness adjustment
Enables the user to manually adjust NVG brightness.

## 2. Usage

### 2.1 Adjusting brightness
- Use <kbd>ALT</kbd> + <kbd>PageUP</kbd> and <kbd>ALT</kbd> + <kbd>PageDOWN</kbd> to adjust NVG brightness (ACE3 default key bind `Increase/Decrease NVG Brightness`).

## 3. Dependencies

`ace_common`
Create missing documentation placeholders Creates placeholder documentation for modules which did not previously have any. If a module had the same name and apparent purpose as a module from AGM, AGM's documentation was imported into the placeholder. These documentation are useful to users for explaining what ACE3 changes. They are also useful to community admins who want to create a custom distribution of ACE3 and need to know which modules to disable. The documentation needs to be significantly fleshed out before it's ready for public consumption, but this should be a helpful start. 2015-05-13 00:28:18 +00:00			`---`

Document module dependencies Add a list of dependencies to each module's documentation. Also add a note to the documenation of modules which are a dependency for many other modules. Dependency lists are pulled from each module's config.cpp. 2015-05-13 19:31:53 +00:00			`ace_common`
