Thunder and lightning

Featured Replies

HiPerhaps this is not a question for this forum. But fore shore its about wheater. Is it possible to decrease the thunder and lightning effect in FS9. It

JimThanks for your answer. I have the Force Thunderstorms with CB unchecked. There is no other way?ThomasESNN

There are 10 files in the Effects folder for lightning. I would say that adjusting some of the parameters would effect the rates, the same as others have done for becon lighting. Do you really feel that there is too much lightning? In the air, over a storm it seems to happen alot in real life.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg

Depends where you live.I grew up in California, where lightening was a rare event even duringan intense storm. We'ld often have storms that lasted for hours andhad only one or two strikes locally noticable. I recall once a stormcame through with multiple strikes per minute, and there was a crowdof people on a hillside watching it in the distance.Now in Texas lightening is everpresent. During a storm it can be asintense as multiple strikes per second. The diffrence is striking.Only once in the past 10 years do I recall an intense rainfalloccuring without any lightening.
