February 8, 20215 yr Hey everyone! I know I'm kinda hoppin on this thread a bit late but it seems that the way of changing the times when night lights and rwy lights turn on earlier has been changed in v4.5 to my knowledge (I saw this on the lockheed forums) There's no longer a "DAY_THRESHOLD" and "NIGHT_THRESHOLD" setting in Prepar3d.CFG anymore. Does anyone know how to do this trick with v4.5? Thanks!
February 9, 20215 yr Commercial Member I guess I’d be at least interested to try it in v5.1 as well if something still exists. Kyle Weber (Private Pilot, ASEL; Flight Test Engineer)Check out my repaints and downloads, all right here on AVSIM

February 10, 20215 yr Eye opener for me (P3D 4.5), never heard of this before.. Works like a charm.. Hans
November 3, 20214 yr Hi guys I’ve been using this tweek for a long time (with FSX and P3Dv4), and it seems to work with most lights, but it doesn’t work with the default runway and taxi lights (the city lights do turn on earlier, but the runway lights don’t). Can anybody else confirm this or is it just in my system ? thanks Eduardo
November 4, 20214 yr I have asked LM to change this.....as the P3D.cfg does not work (anymore)....and for the lights it does nothing (my previous post about this was wrong). We will have to wait and see. Regards, Marcus P.
November 4, 20214 yr Does anyone know if this extends the aircraft lights to illuminate longer; ie wing light lighting up parts of the engine that is normally only lit at dusk/dawn/night etc? Cheers, Simon Simon

We will have to wait and see. Anything new about this? I also try to improve the PMDG landing/taxi lights which barely illuminate the ground by modifying the PMDG .fx files. Taxi at dusk/dawn is a real pain. Maybe both problems are connected?

Taxi at dusk/dawn is a real pain. Maybe both problems are connected? LM fixed the time were straight and Airport lights turn on and off. The cfg won't work anymore. But I didn't read any negative comments since the fix in V5.3, I am satisfied with the current "hard coded" settings. Marcus Regards, Marcus P.
