How to make FSX look darker?

Featured Replies

It will not. This dll needs additional initialization data. It will not find it
It works for me and many other people. I did a search for this, and here's another thread that says basically the same thing: http://forum.avsim.net/topic/334584-limiter/Scroll about half way down the page.

I manage to make them work together. Thks for that. But the scenery still remains bright. I´ll do some more tweaks and see what happens.

Ethan, sorry, off course it does. I`ve missed the words "d3d9.dll that comes with Antilag" in your post. I use it myself.I thought you ment d3d9.dll from FPS_Limiter_0.2.Antilag works much more smoother than FPS_Limiter_0.2

I think a bunch of different payware addons alter the water shading in FSX... but if you don't have one of those want to get rid of that ridiculously bright default FSX moon glow and mess with some of the other shading settings for free, look up FS Water Configurator.

I have a night profile set up in my monitor so that the sky, sea and land are deep black at night, just how it should be. It can make for challenging situation awareness in remote areas - but that all great fun.

Maybe I'm just being naive with this, but if you want it darker at night couldn't you just turn down the brightness on your monitor?

I also prefer the darker settings. I can't remember exactly where I got this ini, but it is the best settings I ever used to get the dark look that I prefer and I've tried quite a few. I don't use any fps limiter since I have no issues with unlimited so make any needed changes you need to this. It should work as is but of course, back up your other. Give it a try (Click Here). Other than that I would agree with Ken ;)By the way, my gaming profile of my monitor is ok for games like BF2, Crysis and COD but for simming I prefer the "Theater" profile since it is darker and has better lows. Maybe you have similar options on your monitor you can try?
