AIRPORT LIGHTS

Hi Guys,


 


This is of course not an FTX issue but I find my airport runway lights go out a little earlier than I would like.


 


Is there an edit somewhere so that you could delay them from going out for perhaps another 20 mins.


 


Thanks

Hi Alex

I've not taken much notice whether it's at generic airports really or pay are although I mostly fly from pay ware places in the UK. Especially UK2000 extreme addons. I thought it may be controlled by a separate file by the sim which offsets on off times in relation to dawn timings where ever you happen to be.

Thanks

Found the answer ! Eureka !

 

Do you find the taxiway lights go off too soon leaving you in the dark when taxiing out at dawn.

Yeah me too ! So I found this fsx.cfg tweak. Just add these 2 lines to your .cfg file ( remembering to backup of course )

[GRAPHICS]
DAY_THRESHOLD=39000
NIGHT_THRESHOLD=4096

defaults are
day 32768
night 4096

I changed my day to 39000 and now the lights stay on later. ( street lights too though )

Much better.
