Landing Lights and Taxi Lights

Featured Replies

Hi! There's a freeware Euro Atlantic 777 by POSKY and ricardo_tv I downloaded a while ago, and I noticed how amazing the landing lights/taxi lights are. I mean, they look like they belong on a payware aircraft! Is there someway I can use this lighting for other aircraft as well? The default ones on some planes look awful, and are a bit dark.

 

If that's not possible, is there a way to brighten the default lights at least? 

 

Thanks

More than likely not!  Most landing lights and taxi lights are part of the model.  It will depend mostly on what

 

you see in the aircraft.cfg file under [lights].  I'll take a look at that freeware aircraft, if I can find it!

 

Quick search found it at Simviation.  Downloading now.

Well, it looks like ricardo_tv added some Shockwave light effects to the model giving the super bright landing and

 

taxi lights.  I have seen this in some other aircraft, especially from FSLightman (David Grindele) who also adds

 

a tremendous amount of "other" effects and textures (pictures) to his downloads.

 

You could purchase A2A Shockwave lights for your aircraft that will  give these bright lights.
