Hello, I really love flying out of KXTA/Area 51 especially at night, but in the sim the airport doesn't have any lights. So is there a mod that will add the lights to this airport? I remember seeing something that adds lights to a bunch of airport but forgot what it was called. 

 

Thanks

Thanks, but unless I am mistaken this add-on doesn't cover area 51 doesn't add light to the runways.  I know I can edit the airport in the SDK but I'm not sure how easy it it is to just add some lights.

This addon for Area 51 appears to have runway lights. I just downloaded it today but haven't flown at night yet.

Are you talking about runway & taxiway lights? If so, it is pretty easy to accomplish with the SDK. If you don't want to start from scratch this tool will help you start with the existing airport to edit.

Here is part 1 of an excellent tutorial series on playing with the SDK.

Add a comment to that mod. The Author is adding airports requested in the comments pretty fast.

Thanks I think I will checkout the mod the person above posted but if that doesn't work then I will definitely leave a comment for that mod.
