Hello everyone,

I'm working on a scenery of my local airport. I have the AFCAD file done and now I'm adding objects to the airport. I wanted to make more realistic approach lights (CALVERT) something like that: http://virtualvss.ru/screenshots/VSS_scr_030.jpg

Could you tell me where can I find such objects?

Best regards,

Loma

Hi,

I haven't seen such objects being available often. Most developers will custom design them for the airport they are working on. That can be done with any tool to design 3D objects, although some tweaking might be needed to get the lights to respond realistically.

Thanks Arno. I'm afraid I won't build those lights as I have no 3D modeling skills, I'll leave the default ones.


Cheers

Loma,

hurry up, here is maybe your help, I want to try if I can help you.

I build for you the CALVERT - Lights.

What dimension have they - what color?

Maybe you have a Picture?
