How to make FSX look darker?

Featured Replies

With the spetacular NGX's landing light I'm thinking in a setup to make FSX look darker at night as I think the original look very bright for a dark night.Anyone know a how to setup that?

Set it up for a winter night, not a summer night.

I use Extreme FSX PC. It has a function to adjust light/darkness during day/night.

you could try ENBseries, it seems pitch black at night.

Careful with enb, it conflicts with highmemfix and disables the fps limiter. On my rig anyway..

Is that what was annoying my FPS limiter.

disables the fps limiter.
Yes, it does if restart ENB during flight. So it`s better way to use Antilag

Hmm, I've missed something there? "spectacular NGX's landing light", i see only 4 disc's as bright light, nothing spectacular, or is there a switch to change that, like the look from Shockwave Lights ??

No you can't use both ENB and FPS Limiter together because they both work off of the DX9 DLL.

You CAN use ENB and the antilag FPS Limiter together. Here are the steps:1. Rename the d3d9.dll that comes with Antilag FPS Limiter to fpsd3d9.dll2. Open your enbseries.ini file and put the allowing lines:EnableProxyLibrary=1ProxyLibrary=fpsd3d9.dllThat should work.

Are you talking about Limiter_D3D9.dll ?Or the d3d9.dll in the main FSX directory?

That should work.
It will not. This dll needs additional initialization data. It will not find it
