Lack of night lighting in FTX Global


Recommended Posts

Not sure if this is how its suppose to be, but I took off from PHKO (Kona International) on The Big Island of Hawaii and set it to dusk, dawn, and night, but noticed a lack of night lighting. It was very few and the lights that do show up is very tiny. If my memory serves me correctly I remember in FSX it was totally different, the night lighting was plentiful and each light was much larger and had some sort of halo to them. Can someone with FTX Global take a sample screenshot of either dawn/dusk/night, and take off from PHKO and show me what their night lighting looks like. I'd like to make some comparison.

When selecting global in FTX Central, make sure you have vector lighting selected (tick box). Also, do you have the latest patches?

 

If you have photoreal terrain for Hawaii, I don't think the lighting works, as there are no defined roads...
