Avwriter Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 The new night lighting is interesting. I gather this is a sort of experiment in creating pleasing effects while managing performance. Perhaps not realistic with the pale glowing sky, but it is eerily reminiscent of the white nights seen in Scandinavia and northern Russia. Kind of fun, in a surreal kind of way. Be sure to keep this effect in mind in case one of your add-ons would be Helsinki - Vantaa or St. Petersburg - Pulkovo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avwriter Posted October 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 I just wanted to update my impressions of the night lighting. The previous statement was based on a session at 22:00. which in New York should be fully dark even in late June. However, I will note that changing the time to 03:00 does result in a fully dark sky. Regardless, I am pleased with the enhanced lighting and color on the ground. Looks much better than before the SP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeelThere_Vic Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 Unfortunately the bright night is a bug and will be fixed along with the trees on one of the runway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see. That explains it. Nevertheless, sometime good things come from mistakes :-) I was not kidding about the idea of doing some northern airports, please make a note of how the effect was produced for future reference. Perhaps one of the 3rd parties might some day want to make PANC or EFHK. Either would actually be rather good possibilities for Tower 3D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
