Title: White Strobe lights air very dim
Post by Drego22 on Nov 13^th, 2020 at 1:39am

Hello, I am sending this message to see if there is way that I could brighten up my white Strobe lights. They are so dim, that the only way that I know that they are on, is to zoom in close to the aircraft. Please help me with this issue, thank you very much in advance! Cheers!

They did that recently to make them much more realistic. I much prefer it now honestly! Can’t stand the fake big huge lights developers put on aircraft. You should barely be able to see them in the daytime IRL

I wonder if the brightness of the strobe lights can be modified in an .fx files?
I took a look, and the only one I could find that might be the strobe lights, was the cs757_stb.fx.
I'm not sure how to modify it either.
