Dimming Panel Lights on C182 IFR

[desertwind 0]

I find the default panel lighting garishly bright. I learned how to modify the panel.cfg file, but it only seems to apply to the 'VFR' panel. The 'IFR' panel remains stubbornly unaffected. There is a panel.cfg file within the panel.ifr folder, but there doesn't appear to be any panel lighting settings in that file.Does anyone know if it's possible to modify the panel lighting for the IFR version, since this is the one I use most often?Thanks in advance!

You can just copy & paste the section from the VFR panel that you've tweaked and it should give you that same lighting with the IFR panel.Odd that there's no section in the IFR panel.cfg, but sure enough, mine doesn't have it either.Welcome to the forum,Jim

Hi, Jim~What a spiffy idea! I'll give that a try.Thanks for the welcome. I've been away from simming and flying for many years and on a whim decided to try fs9. It certainly has brought back a flood of fond memories. I may just have to dust off that old certificate! :)Tawni
