tdragger,Since there haven't been any screenshots at night, can you comment on any "significant" changes / upgrades to the night environment in FSX? -GoldWings-

Night is the last thing the art team does so it's the last thing we show. We do have some suprises in store but why would I spoil that?

NO NO..Dont spoil it!! I want to be surprised. However, I did not know that night is the last thing art team does. So, I still have my fingers crossed! -GoldWings-

Don't expect anything major this release. A few goodies. No pointlights.Yes, I agree that there is major work that can/should be done there.Cheers,Jason

Megascenery is good at providing that type of look ;) It can also be added to by creating some streetlights and making some MDL's with an FX file attached and then you can place that GUID code into your autogen XML code and use the annotator to add the lights ;)would take some work, but it's possible...Another approach would be creating your street light MDL's, attaching the FX to em, and using a 3rd party tool like Library 12 (or whatever it's called) and manually placing the lights into your scenery oriented N/S/E/W correctly...Another option is Ultimate Terrain.Megascenery is available through PCAviatorUltimate Terrain is available through Flight 1(or wherever good FS addons are sold ;))

Always good to guess there is enough improvements left out for future FS s.
