Black_Hawk Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 Have you noticed the look of russian position lights when turned on? They don't really look nice. If you take a look at the position lights of let's say F-15 or F-18 they look much better. On russian ones you can see the 3 flat surfaces forming the light. Has anyone made a Mod that fixes it? I saw one a while ago but it wasn't good, it made them look even worse. 159th GAR LockOnFiles CAW Team
Black_Hawk Posted March 11, 2007 Author Posted March 11, 2007 Bump... I guess noone gets what I'm whining about. So here's a screenie... (they say that a picture is worth 1000 words) 159th GAR LockOnFiles CAW Team
monotwix Posted March 11, 2007 Posted March 11, 2007 That's acceptable after having seen landing lights. I know the human being and fish can coexist peacefully.
Aeroscout Posted March 11, 2007 Posted March 11, 2007 mm? what do you mean? They look normal to me...

Black_Hawk Posted March 11, 2007 Author Posted March 11, 2007 Are you sure??? Because you can clearly see the 3 textures. Surely NOT normal. I'll give ya some more screenies tomorow, I'm too tired now 159th GAR LockOnFiles CAW Team
Aeroscout Posted March 12, 2007 Posted March 12, 2007 Ya, some more would help. I cant see them in your current pic.

Disso Posted March 12, 2007 Posted March 12, 2007 No, that's what you get with Archer's Light mod. Sure, his mod looks better on the Mig and US jets, and on the Flankers it turns out as 2d flat lights in 3 angles, however this is better than the default, some sparkly christmas light majigger dingie. Again, you can get rid of this by uninstalling his mod, and return to the default lights, but these looks WORLDS more realistic than the cartoon'ish looking defaults.

Black_Hawk Posted March 12, 2007 Author Posted March 12, 2007 Hm, I never noticed that it looks good on the MiG. If it looks ok on the '29 I don't care about other a/c :thumbup: I'll try it out now. edit: Still no joy 159th GAR LockOnFiles CAW Team
Disso Posted March 12, 2007 Posted March 12, 2007 Well, the US Hog and Eagle at least. Just stop zooming in so close! The default light bulbs look just as fugly that close. SU-30MKI F/A-18F ...Beauty, grace, lethality.

Kuky Posted March 12, 2007 Posted March 12, 2007 hm I just checked these NAV lights specifically on the MiG-29 and they seem just fine to me?!

Aeroscout Posted March 12, 2007 Posted March 12, 2007 Ok, I see what your talking about. It doesn't happen to me, but I don't have any mods that do this, so I dont know how to fix it. The best tihing I can tell you is to remove the mod.

Viper101 Posted March 12, 2007 Posted March 12, 2007 to me. i think the lights are correct in the game because on the American jets the lights are closed in the wing and on the Russian aircraft, their not covered up in the wing, their just out there :-P [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
VMFA-Blaze Posted March 12, 2007 Posted March 12, 2007 The lights have been a big issue since Lock On first hit the selves... One Guy even went as far as ranting about flashing beacons... And then there was the guy that actually asked for the kitchen sink (no lie).. :lol: But as far as I'm concerned they always appeared to be just fine .... ~S~ Blaze intel Cor i7-6700K ASUS ROG MAX VIII Extreme G.Skill TridentZ Series 32 GB Samsung 850 Pro 1TB SATA II ASUS GTX 1080/DIRECTX 12 Windows 10 PRO Thrustmaster Warthog Oculus Rift VR
