olderndirt Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Several posts on non Chamber of Commerce weather so here's more. Don't ask - cranked a brightness up in uwxp and voila. The poor guy in the plane is still anchored. They rescued the Skyhawk and I'm waiting for more lightning bolts. Hate to say it but it looks like this more than it needs to.

flyingleaf Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Wow them are striking shots OND. Last time I tried "catching" lightening strikes I hit that V key 75 times and still didn't catch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hit whatever you use for 'pause' (top center button on my x52) to stop motion on something good then 'shift+space' for your shot. More time consuming, run the recording and pick out the good stuff.

Jack Sawyer Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 I didn't even know XP would produce lightning, I need to try it sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the way right on the stormy stuff and I use 'Renault's' no rain script 'cause XP rain is ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakashi Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 That first one is almost shocking! The second one is not quite as shocking! Two great shots! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renault Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Oh that's how you do it. It's often pretty dry here, so my method is to rub my feet and socks on the carpet, put my index finger about an inch from the screen and watch the sparks fly! Only problem is XPlane doesn't seem to have a key to capture that! Cheers R PS - maybe that's why I practically rebuilt my computer over the last two months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear you changed from "G" to "R" - more appropriate for 'Renault'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
