ANSWERED Taxi way lights showing up as smooth blue cylinders

[RandyB]

I have installed the latest Libraries.  The taxiway lights on top of yellow poles, normally look like corrugated dark blue cylinders now look like smooth cylinders with light blue bands in top and bottom and dark blue middle.   This is occurring on Jefferson City, Redding and others.   The white runway lights look okay.  They are fully resolved into white corrugated, clear glass cylinders.

I should add that this seemed to appear after performing the latest Libraries update.

G'day Randy,

 

I can only attest for Redding, but what you are seeing is correct. The taxiway markers are actually unlit posts using reflective material (similar to what is used for roadside signs and markers), and as such don't have a specific light effects attached. For a little further information have a read of an earlier post on this subject - my expectation is that Jefferson has a similar setup. 

 

Cheers,

Jarrad

Thanks Jared for the reply - I took a closer look at the screenshots of Jefferson County on your website and at end of RW 27 I do now see the cylinders and also see the dark blue light (glass, corrugated) at end of runway.    Anacortes has the regular taxi way lights.   I see now why you did it that way - thanks for the link.
