Any GA Prop Planes with that "New" Landing Lights Effect?

Featured Replies

I've seen some nice screens of that new landing lights effect (they really seem to light up the runway markings at nite instead of washing it out) on planes like the L39 and 737ngx...i was wondering if anyone knows of any GA Prop planes (single or twins) that would include those same type of landing/taxi lights...payware is fine btw.Dave

Orbx has a payware single engine prop called a Lancair that has the new style landing lights and rain on VC windows.

Milviz C310R has them.

The Aerosoft Katana has a sort of those. The Flight1 C182 has them too.

If I buy one of those addons, can I use the lights on my LevelD? I would love to have real lights, lighting up the runway instead of washing it out, but I am not shure the Shockwave/Redux-thing is similar to the picture above. Will it be just to add the light in the effect folder and edit the effect.cfg or similar?

No, those landing lights are part of the model and cannot be transferred like the shockwave effects. BTW, the shockwave lights don't really light up the runway they just give off a volumetric effect from the exterior view.

Thank you for replying."the shockwave lights don't really light up the runway they just give off a volumetric effect from the exterior view"..- that's what I was afraid of.

I put this one out a while back. It has the modeled light effect, and you can't beat the price! smile.pngLook for "thorp_t-18.zip" here in the library. 5608768630_a81995f55f_z.jpg

I think I remember the thread where you spoke about working on the plane. Thanks again for the HU and the plane itself. I will fly her later. smile.png A huge thanks to people like you, spending time and talent on freeware for others to enjoy.There you go.lightsv.jpglights3s.jpgThe cockpit lights are also done nicely. Not too bright.lights2k.th.jpgPretty cool camera definitions on that plane by the way. That chase view is nice (no picture included).

wow, I just noticed this "coming soon" from Carenado:http://www.carenado.com/CarSite/Portal/index.php?accion=incomview&correl=7Ive been waiting years for Flight1 to "redo" their old Meridian for FSX so for me this very exciting news...the only downer for me is that Carenado isn't exactly known for systems modelling. Anyone know anymore about this project from them?I hope they put alot of love into this one all around...I also hope they start using the new illuminating landing/taxi lights.

Looks very nice!Cheers,- jahman.

N2056 - Is there any way we could put the landing light effect you have in your download plane into our existing default of addon planes like the MAAM SIM DC-3?Thanks.

I wish it were possible, but since it is actually a part of the 3d model it's not something you can add via the aircraft.cfg file. You would need the original model files (the ones from Max, Gmax, FSDS) to do it.
