April 15, 200422 yr Anyone know of any files to dim the approach and runway lighting for default msfs?Thanks,
April 15, 200422 yr Flying at night, to my eyes most of the cultural lighting is pretty close, especially with a night add-on here at AVSIM released some time back, but it just still seems the approach and runway lighting are too bright!! Anyone else?
April 15, 200422 yr Hello,I have found the following tweak here in Avsim which i use/works great for me. I do not know who has originally find this but i thank him. I copy:Q) How can I change runway light settings?A) To get your runways configs light size add these line under fs9.cfg display: RUNWAY_LIGHTS_SURFACE_SCALAR=1.0 //scales edge, center,end,touchdown,runways RUNWAY_LIGHTS_VASI_SCALAR=1.0 // scales VASI lights)RUNWAY_LIGHTS_APPROACH_SCALAR=1.0 // scales approach light bars RUNWAY_LIGHTS_STROBE_SCALAR=1.0 //scales RAILs and ODALs)More the value is lower, more the light will decrease in size, 0.5, 0.005 etc.nikolas/athens/hellas (greece)
June 11, 200421 yr This works great, but does anyone know how to apply this to the TAXI lights?ThanksED
June 11, 200421 yr Download Chris Arrington's phenomenal airport-enhancement lights package (free in Avsim library). It gives you almost 3D-type runway and taxi lights plus some other environmental improvement to airports. This is the BEST airport night-lighting available. It is getting rave reviews on this forum. Some folks on this forum claim it completely tranforemd their night flying experience. He also created a seperate night-light-texture package so don't confuse both. BTW, Chris is a pilot and knows the subject ..;)Michael J.http://www.reality-xp.com/community/nr/rsc/rxp-higher.jpg Michael J.
June 11, 200421 yr Thanks Michael,I have downloaded and installed both of Chris's great packages.The question I have is how to dim the taxiway lights. I can dim the runway, vasi, and approach lights, by editing the FS9 cfg. But the taxiway lights are then too bright compared to the reduce intensity of the runway lights.I was hoping that some one has figured out a way to do it? I've searched the Forum and there isn't an answer that I could find?ED
