Orange runway lights with Project Canarias

Featured Replies

Hi everybody,Lately I have unintentionally uninstalled Project Canarias, which later caused a lot of trouble in my FS... I reinstalled it and what I noticed was that runway lights at each airport (all around Europe not only the Canarian ones) were orange! :| I know that Project Canarias makes the lights of the cities more orange on the Islands, but why does it also affect the airports all around Europe?Before I had uninstalled the add-on everything was fine...I tried changing the priorities in FS library but didn't help - even the airports that were higher priority had orange runway lights. I deleted FS9.cfg, didn't help. So I uninstalled Project Canarias once again and all the lights are now 'normal' white. However, it does concern me a lot as I fly to Canaries very often and the Project Canarias photoscenery was marvellous.Does anyone have some idea how to install the add-on without affecting other airports?

It sounds like Project Canarias is overwriting the default textures used for runway lighting with their own. The trick is to find out where these default textures are located and then back them up to a safe place and reinstall them after you install the Project Canarias scenery. Perhaps some kind soul who knows more about this will post with what and where these file are and located. Best of luck. -Robert

I also thought that it is overwriting the textures for runway lights, but it is a bit weird that last time I had Project Canarias installed, the add-on didn't do that...

You could try this to see what happens:Go to the CanarySim folder - mine installed itself in the FS9 root folder - open the Data folder and click the "Manager" button: you
