    Orbx Night lighting issue in 5.3

    in Prepar3D

    Posted

    Hello,

     

    So I upgraded from V5.2 to V5.3 but I can't seem to get my Orbx night lighting to pop like it was before in V5.2 with the settings I adjusted for it, I don't have LC EU or True Earth Britian...

    I was just using FTX Global and the FTX lights that come with that to make my 5.2 pop, but I don't know if it is a bug or a known issue in 5.3 where the lighting from that control panel doesn't really work.

    Image 1 - 5.3 Night Lighting to the West of Heathrow.
    Image 2 - 5.2 Night Lighting arrival into Heathrow from 27R

     

    Thanks

    Any help would be great

    Hi. Beedan, although Volanta devs may visit the forums, Volanta suggestions and issues are normally better handled on the Volanta discord, or through a ticket on the Volanta website

    True, but also good to post here to get other people's views and optinon on what they think about it too for feedback, I would join there discord but part of 100 atm so a bit stuck there unless I get the Nitro which I don't really see me getting.

    Volanta Suggestion with leaderboards

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Hello,

    So not to brag about anything but I feel the leaderboard system for airports needs like some sort of requirements met before you flight will count towards going out of that airport and to it, as I currently have 27 Flights out of Heathrow all legit legs etc and I was in close competition with "RoopeZ" with 21 flight all legit too.

     

    But then someone called "not_oxi" has came along out of now where and now has 24 flight all cause he is using simulation rates to get the flights done faster, from the second image I attached.

    I feel that Volanta should do a check to see if you use simulation rate or not and if you don't then count it towards the number of flights in/out of that airport, if you do use it then it will not count towards the airport or leaderboards but still log it in your "Flights"

     

    Why should it be like this?

    People like myself like to take simulation serious and not take advantage of a simulation rate to get top of leaderboards, myself and RoopeZ we have nice some friendly competition with legit flying to and from places in real time, until someone that probably has no idea what he is doing just gets up in the air to cruise and just does max simulation rate to climb a leaderboard.

     

    Hopefully this sugestion will get looked into for the hard/ immersion flight simmers so the leaderboards can be like a taken proper with legit flying.

     

    Thanks

    Weird Night Texture conflict with OpenLC NA

    Beedan, I don't know if your sceneries are installed  inside P3D or inside an Orbx Library folder, but I had the same problem at one time when all my Orbx sceneries were installed in an Orbx Library folder. My "FIX" was to install the Open LC NA scenery inside P3D instead of the Orbx Library. I still have all my other Orbx sceneries in the library, including Global Base. Only the LC NA is in P3D.

     

    I don't know if it will solve your problem or not, but might be worth a try. Strangely, my other LCs are in a library and do not cause problem (LC Africa, Europe, South America).

     

    Best regards,

    Any LC or region based stuff are installed into the main P3D root folder, all my airports are in a seperate folder outside of that main folder in a folder called "P3D V5 Addons"

    Hello,

    are your products installed into or outside your P3D root folder?

    Hello,

    if this is only around your addon airport, have a look and see if it includes a landclass file and if it does, disable it.

    Hello,

     

    Nope it is on the entire of the US at the moment from what I am seeing, currently flying over the US heading to SFO and only have Global and OpenLC America and seeeing black night texture coming through conflicting with the daylight snow textures

    Hello,

     

    I recently reinstalled my OpenLC NA in P3D 5.2 HF1 and went to test it after it was installed and loaded up into FlightBeam KIAD and went into Top down view to see if there was any issues and I was met with this?

     

    I only have Global, OpenLC NA & Trees HD, No night lighting addon etc just base

     

    Any way of fixing this would be great, I also tried to verify the files too but nothing

    Thanks
