fsx-se Night flying... blind

[Bjoern 1,157]

This is what I get in DX9 with the default halo.bmp and all runway lights at various scales in the fsx.cfg.

As you can see, the lights get dimmer with decreasing size and are thus harder to see from afar, so revert to the default bitmap and then scale the lights in the fsx.cfg so that you can still clearly see them from about five miles out or more. Easy recognition from a distance is the entire point of runway lighting after all.

Hmm ok I'll try and work on it Thursday night or Friday. I'm still working and my shifts are 12+ hours so I can't get much done until then. Thanks

I replaced the halo.bmp with a REX texture direct one and tweaked the scalar values in the FSX.cfg.  Now it's much brighter.  Seems the halo.bmp was too dim.  Thx all.

That looks really good Orlaam.  Try a couple of ENB profiles and see that look even better.
