But their lights are working nicely on everything else but on FSL. No possibility to adjust lights in FSL bus. So bit of trade off... Alex
June 12, 20214 yr Well everything else about 5.2 is such a leap forward, I can wait for the rest to catch up!
June 12, 20214 yr FSL just confirmed that a new version of Spotlights is already in testing and working well.

I use Lorby Flashlight (freeware) to lighten up the cockpit. It is brighter than the stock P3D flashlight.

June 13, 20214 yr Just watching a couple of YouTube videos with P3d v5.2. I noticed that the users of the pmdg 777 With EA on the cockpit is not dark. is that due to the fact that pmdg has a fix for that ? Or HDR is off? It would be nice to have the qw 787 colour palette with EA off look into it with EA enabled. Cheers mike

June 16, 20214 yr Wow what a difference that made. and tell me why LM and beta testers couldn’t figure this out earlier??? Something as simple as this. Come on!!!’ mike
June 16, 20214 yr I used the code, and it works nicely, but the contrast is indeed slightly lower than what I'd like. Is there any way to tune the contrast achieve a somewhat in-between look? Regards, C Schaffhausen
