LIGHTS ! Carriers, Tankers, Runways

[cesarferrolho]

With regular runways it's more a question of, during bad weather... they should turn on lights.

But, tankers and carriers are almost invisible at night !!! Even at relatively close range. (other airplanes too) And i have my graphic settings sort of high.

Tankers don't even seem to have any lights other than on wingtips.

Carrier lights, mostly the runway... are super dim at night, even in clear weather.

I'm not asking for real rendered lights but please increase their visibility in intensity/distance

aircraft external lights are broken since i started playing DCS at version 1.3 or something.

it's a shame. external aircraft lights should be visible for 25-50km and AI aircraft should have logic (and ME/script settings) to control light use. same for the other assets mentioned in the OP.

There is a mod now, that's kind of cool.

i think you mean Arttu's Light Fix, yes?

will try it out. thanks for the heads-up!

i must stress though, that such a important feature should be in by default. current visibility of external lights is a bit of a joke honestly.

Exactly! You might want to take a look at the night sky too. Constellations are now easily spotted.
