Runway lights and Microsoft

Featured Replies

I don't know if Microsoft monitor these forums but the ONE things I can not understand (seeing that we asked for it while they were developing FS2000 and then again when FS2002 was in the pipeline) was the fact that the runway lights are turned on and off by some setting in FS2002 that no one knows where and when ...... causing the runway to be so dark with dusk and dawn that you can not see it!... making flying into an airfield with low visibility almost impossible because of the most unrealistic feature in MSFS and that is that you can not set the runway lights on or off!Did anyone figure out a way around this - or where the switch in the Microsoft tower is for runway lights?Please pleeeeze Microsoft - if you do read the forums make this as real as it gets because it is absurd not to have this feature!Kind regardsTerblancheFACT

You can try using the FSW lights that are availible. This will help brighten up everything once the lights are on, but I don't believe there is a really a 'fix' when the lights are off. My guess is that the light "off and on times" are hard coded into FS2k2.Ryan-Flightpro08 :-coolVATSIM Pilot/ControllerZLA ARTCC Controller 1 (C-1)SAN TRACON Lead [link:www.taxiwaysigns.com]Taxiwaysigns.com Scenery Designer-----------------------------My "Home Made" System Specs:Intel Pentium 4 2.2GHz ProcessorTurbo Gamer ATX Mid-Tower with 420W Power SupplyEPoX 4G4A Motherboard with Intel 845G ChipsetVisiontek XTASY GeForce4 128MB Ti4600 (Det 29.42 WHQL Drivers)512MB PC2100 DDR RAM40GB Matrox 7200RPM Hard DriveWindows XP Home Edition SP1*No CPU or GPU Overclocking*3dMark2001SE Score: 11298
