• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

FS2004 Scenery Lighteffect Problem

Hi!
A Freind is working on a Scenery and has a Problem with some light effects provided from FSDS 3?
Since he does not speak english I am asking for him ;)

On the Runway he has put the Papi Lights (2 Dots) with AFCAD and you can see them from a fare off!
At the Baseline of the Runway he has put in FSDS a Line of Lights (7 Dots) using a effect. The thing is you only can see them if you are already very close to the Airport.
The question is, is there something he could change to make them visible from a fare of?

Thanks for any Help!!
 
Hi,

As far as I know that is a limitation of effect files. The default runway lighting is hard coded in the scenery engine and has a much higher visibility range.
 
You could try to put the light effects on the same position, they will for sure get brighter, but I'm not sure if it will enlarge it's range...

I'm stuck with the lightning system on my side too, the FS engine has quite a weird way of thinking :D
