Cockpit and exterior light effects of the FSX version?

Featured Replies

Hi,

I noticed that the pictures on the product page of the 32 bit version are apparently from P3Dv4 as well. As FSX has no dynamic lights or RealLight, I was wondering how the cockpit night lighting looks? Also does the FSX version have Lotus-style exterior light effects (i.e. lights that truly illuminate the ground)? :smile:

The effect is the same with cockpit lights, but you loose the dimming, so lights are only on/off. The external light effect probably do not illuminate the ground afaik, but let me ask our chief programmer before. Let you know

Other add-ons have the ground-lighting effect in FSX.  PMDG aircraft do, so no reason the Maddog shouldn't.

Thank you very much for the quick reply! I'm looking forward to the answer of the main developer. 

I too hope that the FSX Maddog X does not rely on the ugly FSX default light effects.
