How to install this?

 

1. Download the Fly with Lua script

 

2. Unzip and place the folder into your plugin folder as described in the readme

 

3. Make sure you have xsquawkbox installed

 

 

 

What is the use of xsquawkbox here?

 

Flo

You can use xsquawkbox console window to type code into the plugin.

Tried it but did not get as dramatic of a result... maybe I saved the notepad file wrong... will try again with Tom's instructions.

@Tom ,

 

Have you played with ground shadows?

No, working on aircraft and environment lights now

Finally rocking some awsome lights. Tidy up the code right now for sharing, but here is some screens

 

Dusk over ENBO

 

 

Night at the same location

Very nice Tom, the dusk shot is particularly realistic.

Think so yes, but could be very luck with either settings or tweaks LOL..

Here is two for testing, please report back to this thread or xp-developer.com

Place them into the FlyWithLua/Script folder

art_test.lua = Athmospheric Scattering by Michel T minus the light entry
light_test.lua = All my light entry with personally tweak.

SkyMaxx PRO settings included (right click and save_as on .lua scripts)

Thanks for the Lua-scripts. Will try them out today  :smile:  To bad that SMP dont work with cloud shadows. (btw...do you run the latest update of SMP? Your screenshot of the SMP settings looks like 1.0, the newest version is 1.1)

I have version 1.3 installed, almost the same, but i will update the picture, thanks for the notice

NICE !!!

Thank you Tom - I'll try your new settings out.

Very kind of you to share

Hello Tom !

 

Nice shots, thank you for sharing you settings !

 

Look at :

 

set( "sim/private/controls/lights/bloom_far", 3000.00 )
set( "sim/private/controls/lights/bloom_near", 120.00 )
set( "sim/private/controls/lights/mix_big", 80.000 )
set( "sim/private/controls/lights/mix_small", 25.00)
set( "sim/private/controls/lights/bloom_for_zoom", 0.60

 

This settings are one of my first postet and as i wrote -> for very large resolution -> you can try some lower values !!

 

If you want to change the cones of light you can also try:

 

set( "sim/private/controls/lights/scale_far", 0.50 )

set( "sim/private/controls/lights/scale_near", 0.30)

 

-> (runway lights also affected)

 

Greetings, Arnie!
