Hello Guys !With no exception, all my Aircrafts Landing & Taxi lights, are not really illuminating the Taxi and Runways, as if someone turn the dimmer, so taxing while in the cockpit is practically impossible, I see nothing outside ...Any idea CheersYair

Yeah that's normal for the default planes. You may have seen some nice addon aircraft with special effects... such as the Lotus L39:http://www.lotussim.com/features-general-landinglights.htmlA few other addons do something similar...Orbx LancairEaglesoft DA42F1 T182Milviz C310Otherwise you won't find the effect in stock models - it's required to be built into the model. So that means you can't buy an addon. The shockwave lights make a volumous light effect but don't illuminate the ground

.... yeah, The L39, this is exactly what I mean and what should be considered as an effective Landing Lights. Is there any reason why developers are neglecting such an important feature Yair

Well I think the effect is somewhat complicated to do well. It's not actually an FX file like the default stuff, it's a custom model.There's also some issues with the lights. They look horrible on grass runways (texture are multicolored at night), and they usually shine off into the horizon on takeoff.

Here's a great example of the issues with ground textures - this will also occur at some payware/freeware airports that use textures instead of Ry/Txy polygons.
