Lclass highways at night

[ha5mvo]

Just a quisk one,

Does anybody know how to dim the overly emphasized (IMO) yellow lights that you get on highways at night?

I'm not sure but I think they also reduce performance

Thanx

i think turning the MIP Mapping down a bit should do the trick

or it could disable the feature completely :?

anyway, give it a try.

Hi,

1. The "moving highways" do reduce performance quite significantly since they are a "leftover" technology from the previous FS and it seems that they are not optimized for FS2K4. But Seev decided rightly that they add very much to the realism so they will stay... Anyway, until the full SDK does not appear, there is nothing to be done.

2. Reducing mipmaps etc. will have no influence on the dynamic highways since they are not bitmaps.

You might want to try to reduce the Autogen which also reduces FPS significantly.

Oh, didn't realise these lights were not bimaps... ok, so here's another one:

Is there any way to reduce the size or intensity of the bulbs on lamp poles

I did try changing the size of runway lights through FS9.cfg as I thought

they use the same bmp or effect, but that didn''t make any difference

It's not that I'm nite-picking, these bulbs tend to be a real frame hog - too dear a price for the effect

Thanx again

P.S

Alex,

Your Scenery is truely excellent, the view from LLSD 21 is VERY impressive!!

Sorry but you cannot change that intensity either - it is all "hard coded" in the scenery by the developer. Besides, it wouldn't have improved the framerate either :-)

I am happy you like TLV. Happy VFR-ing.
