Hello everyone, since flying in Norway and Alaska in FSX, I wanted to spot the Aurora Borealis aka the Northern lights. Yes, I did scan the whole internet, but there is not much to find.
I know they were in fs2004 and 2002. And yes, they definitely should be in FSX. I saw the files and even downloaded the free Night Sky HD addon, that adds new textures for the aurora ( you can even choose which one do you want). And no, I don't want Envtex, and I'd like to keep it free.
Many hours in these regions were spent without success. Today, I downloaded a mission that should add it just to test it out. Nothing. I will try it with the original textures again, but that doesn't seem to be the issue I think.
I also saw a youtube video with aurora and the guy edited aircraft.cfg to show the effect instead of smoke. I tried that, but no output (even tried pressing "I" which he was talking about, I don't see any smoke in other planes while pressing "I" anyways tho). Waiting for the guys further reply's.
So, who of you saw the aurora in FSX? Did you use any addon? Mission? Scenery? Anything else? Or did it just very luckily appear?
Any tips what could I do to see it? Preferably to force it, to be 100% sure they will appear for me.
Thx for help.
