Interested to know how people have their night lighting configured to display realistically.

 

I have Vector, FTX Global and FTX Landclass products installed and use the FTX Night light configurator to set my preferences.  The results are more pleasing than the default night lighting but I sometimes have issues with road lighting disappearing and then reappearing which kiils the immersion a little.   My preference is to use the very small size lights as I think this looks more realistic in the sim.

 

Wondering what everyone else does to get great results.

Yeah I try to use small and more precise as opposed to the glow effect. 

 

Can I say that the night lighting for FTX OpenLC NA is pretty ridiculous.   It rivals Aerosoft's Night Environment and seems to have 0 FPS impact.
