PAPI lights very hard to see

From the VC captain view I can't see them until it's too late.

If I zoom in then I can't see the instruments.

What can I do?

 

Thank you.

In your "FSX.cfg" file adjust or add to the "display" section the following.

 

 

 

[Display]

RUNWAY_LIGHTS_SURFACE_SCALAR=0.85 //adjust values to suit your scale
RUNWAY_LIGHTS_VASI_SCALAR=0.95 //adjust values to suit your scale
RUNWAY_LIGHTS_APPROACH_SCALAR=0.85 //adjust values to suit your scale
RUNWAY_LIGHTS_STROBE_SCALAR=0.7 //adjust values to suit your scale

Cheers;

I believe the default values (assuming unmodified by any addon software) are 1.0

(1.0 = 100%;  so if you change to 1.5, you are increasing the value by 50%)
