Lighting problem

Featured Replies

Hi!

 

I have some problems with the MD- 11 and all the outside lights on the plane. The problem is that it will not show correctly on gorund.

When I'm taxing and takes off at night, I can see the taxi/ landing light on the ground, aorund 300- 500 feet from the plane. It's very annoying , and it's very unrealistic.

 

Pleas help me!!!

It looks like you use REX enhanced lights. Switch back to the default lights in REX and confirm that the lights work properly again. The wrong file is in the main texture folder of FSX and is called "spotlight.bmp" if you want to correct it manually.

Well, I'm afraid I doesn't know how to change back to defaulte in REX.

Can you pleas tell me how i do it?

No problem. Go to

 

program files\real environment xtreme\ themes\backup\initial backup /texture/spotlight.bmp

(my path in Win XP)

 

copy "spotlight.bmp" from there back to your FSX folder location ...\FSX\Texture folder (main Texture folder)

 

And then you have the lights back.
