KBOS lights

Post by LVBer123 » Thu Jul 21, 2005 5:44 pm

Does anyone know how to get rid of those horrid red lights on George's KBOS (Boston-Logan) scenery?

Hi, which red lights are you talking about? The PAPI? The hold-short lines? The beacons on top of buildings and towers?

Because all of those exist in real life... :wink:

Take a look at the screenshot. They look huge and awful, and just make the scenery look terrible. I think it'd look a million times better on approach if they were gone. I've circled them for you. They just clash with everything else.

Have you installed one of those god awful runwaylight enhancements or some other type of environment addon?

I think your Halo.bmp has been replaced & thats why the lights are so big.

That looks the same as mine... and I fail to see a problem, this is how it appears in real life. (Except for a bunch of the red lights that are in the now-finished construction area.)

Also the draw distance on the lights is not very far, you would not notice them so prominently like this unless you are slewing or flying somewhere a normal plane would never fly.

Edit: Well, okay, during the day, they're definitely too bright, comparing with airliners.net pics. George, maybe when you update KBOS, you can make the lights only come on at night?

Try this addon at Avsim.It fixed the Halo lights include KFBO.

How does it look during the daytime? As I said it looks fine at night but is too bright in broad daylight.

Have you tried this addon?

Observe in the screenshot "TEST WITH BOSTON LOGAN".

Works to me...
