Landing / Taxi Lights

Featured Replies

Using Prepar3D the taxi or landing lights do not illuminate the ground as soon as I increase the throttle. They stay illuminated in Spot mode just not Virtual Cockpit.

I never thought the Landing lights were very good on the 300 or 100. (FSX or P3DV4). Don't light up the runway or taxiway (taxi light) well enough. Post if you find a fix for your problems.

I also have the same problem with P3Dv4.5. I made a night landing today, and neither my landing nor taxi lights were working. I did some testing later and discovered that the lights are fine during twilight, but as soon as it gets dark the intensity of the lights drops. Is this a P3D problem or a problem with the aircraft? Is there any way to make the lights more effective? Many thanks.

The landing, taxi and exterior lights are built into the model file and cannot be fixed. Only Carenado.can fix the problem.

Well I wont hold my breath for that to happen.

BTW

If you press the L key to cycle through the lights, for some reason they get better but still not very good.
