XP10 / Night lightning tractors

Featured Replies

Hello, when I do a flight at night I was always wondering about an ocean out of red and white lights on the ground. They are visible until very far distance. I found out that theese are the lights of the static tractors on the ground. Is it possible to deactivate theese lights or better remove theese tractros completly? Please see the pictures attached.

Go into Custom Scenery/world-models/decorations and find the file tracteur_static.obj and open it up in a text editor .

At the end of the file are a load of lines that begin with LIGHT_NAMED, just delete them, ie.

You'll still have the tractors, but no lights at night from them

Just a few days ago, I saw a tractor during dawn and the big lights are quite realistic - see here.
