Lightning strikes

Recommended Posts

Guest delsutton2009

HiMaybe a dumb question, but has anyone ever been struck by lightning in FSX? I mean, there's plenty of places I've been to where I see light shows around me, but never seen a near strike so just wondered if it is possible?Del

I almost got hit by lightning while playing FSX - the bolt hit in the forest behind my house, and I shut down the computer real quick. Form what I distantly recall, stronger lightning effects were on the plate for FSX but got shelved along with a number of other atmospheric effects because of time and budget constraints.
