I'm finding this confusing now Chris now we have thrown FTX lighting into the mix. They have put lighting into global and lighting into regional products. I'm making you my lighting expert Chris. What do I do now to get my lights the way you intended them to look even if I sacrifice this so called 3d lighting. Can I switch it off. Can you recommend settings for an FTX based sim Thanks Graham

Im not sure where they are from Chris. I have FTX software that has a light configurations and also REX texture direct which can alter airport lighting. To be absolutely honest. Heaven knows where the shape of the light bawl is coming from then. I thought it was now Night Environment. Graham

Heres what I mean Chris. I think the brightness is too intense. It not how many lights there are but more like how bright they are. This is low level around EGBB Birmingham airport UK. Especially where larger roads seem to have 2 lights bawls close together as seen in this picture. This is Default preset with yellow slid back to 50% Will V1.8 be another large download ? or will this be a completely new product or interface upgrade. Its still much much better flying at night nowadays with N.E. I don't want to put anyone off buying it with my comments. I would still buy recommend it to everyone and still plan to roll out my coverage as new areas are released. I own everything you have done in European scenery areas. Graham EDIT------------------EDIT-------------------EDIT I think I may have discovered something for you. I have set my orbx FTX central to Europe and not global now . I think this was giving me the double BAWL things because they seem better now. Maybe a landclass thing ? I hope this was the case. Ill have to continue tomorrow. Regards Graham

Im making progress finally. For other readers dont forget to re-run dx10 fixer. I think thats the reason they looked like dots instead of lights and slide those yellows back. Much more testing to do. Maybe Im expecting to much after France but as I say the rustic setting seem to make things seem less perfect which is actually better if you know what i mean. Graham

Chris, There is something about the night view of British Isles after the update that make its seem less real than before. :-( The streetlights now look like yellow dots instead of lights and because of the ground splash it almost makes the picture look blurred. Thats the only way I can describe it. In the original release i used base , level 0 and level 2 to build my lighting. With V1.7 im using the preset default. This is my setting for France which seems fine. Can you suggest anything I can try. Also I was hoping to find the rustic option which I particularly liked in France but Im now thinking that was available because France is V2.0 Seems a step back just at the moment but lets see what we can do Graham EDIT After much tinkering Ive tried everything but i just cant get it to look as good as v1.1 im not sure what the answer is. You'll have to list everything you've changed so I can help you find out what is spoiling the effect at least for me. Maybe its because the ground splash is as bright as the lights themselves which makes me think I have double vision when flying at night. At this moment though the wow factor has gone. Sorry I know that's not what you wanted to hear. Graham

MMM dont do it from flightsimstore. Its still the old file and after waiting too long for the Germany update. Heres my email to them :- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Adrian,I couldnt believe my eyes when I read about the update for Night Environment British Isles you emailed out the day yesterday. Yes I thought ! that's real service for you. I thought you'd mended your system after not informing us about the Germany update. Even better, you'd actually informed us before Aerosoft had on their update forum. Brilliant ! So I uninstalled and downloaded . . . . . . it hasnt been updated at all has it ?!? That another 3.0Gb bandwidth down the dunny! I think that email should have been informing us about Germany don't you ?. Believe me my grandfather who fought in the second world war would not agree that Germany is part of the British Isles cos we actually won the war. Perhaps if we hadn't then we would be included in the German update ;-( Please try to iron out whats going on here. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All written in a light hearted manner of course if any of our German friends are reading Chris on a more serious note. Now I uninstalled British Isles 1.1 waiting for the 1.7 version, I note Germany 1.7 disappeared from the configuration program leaving me with just France/Paris configurable. Hopefully it will return when I get the new British Isles update. Graham

Chris can you start a locked thread to announce individual updates etc. I know you mentioned a number of releases are due when aerosoft complete the wrapper process but I'm not sure where we can see when it's actually publicly released. Thanks Graham. Ps I know you have an announcement thread already but it appears unused and possibly unlocked for others to post to which will cloud proper announcements.

Well done Chris that is indeed great news. Just hope the file distributors can keep up with you lol I couldnt help noticing that your configurator is back to 1.0. Mine was updated to 1.1 when you issued a fix a while ago. Is the new installer corrected or should we apply your fix again Regards Graham

Its annoying Chris. Flightsimstore still don't stock France yet so I had to purchase from somewhere else. Ive sent them an email. Ill try to contact aerosoft also. Perhaps if I can download from them it will be the same wrapper with my serial number. Also Chris does this install correct the problems with version 1.0 or will I still have to manually update it to v1.1 again with the extra file we downloaded. Thanks Graham

Hi Chris and development team, Firstly congratulations on France V2. There certainly wont be people complaining its not configurable enough that's for sure. I'm eager as will others be, to match my existing regions with the latest version of NE. Im guessing this is going to take time as it wont be a case of just adding them to the new control panel. What will the update involve. Will it be a complete install or a patch as I guess if its all going into one folder and one scenery.cfg entry for each region a lot of file moving around will be required. Do you have a roll out plan and ideas of timescales. I know these are difficult questions and I don't expect to pin you down to dates, but a weeks per area, or months per area, advisory would be a start. Can I ask some consideration to be given to the manual also. I like to print them out to read from a hard copy and although the manual looks good onscreen, it would use an awful lot of black ink to print out. Perhaps a white back-grounded printable version would be a nice addition. Thanks guys - great work Graham

Hi Chris and All, Im currently using Base Level + 0 + 2 in the earlier products. Can you recomend settings for a starting point for V2 which will be about the same result as the above. Im currently using sceneryconfigeditor to turn off NE in my earlier products. I see V2 has an on/off switch which will perform this task in future. Will V2 show up as a layer and if so we just ignore it and leave it switched on in the scenery layers and use the V2 control panel for the on/off setting. Is this correct. I guess as we upgrade each country we will just remove entry from sceneryconfigeditor and slowly move this on/off selection over to V2 config panel. Correct. Thanks mate and good luck Graham
