OK I tried the search feature for the forum to try and help me out but it seems that my dial-up modem is too slow and it was taking forever to retrieve results so I guess I'll ask you all guys.The following are my Questions:

1.How do I make the Runway Lights Brighter at night and make the runway visible from a greater distance at night?,or shall I say the runway lights visible from a greater distance :) By the way, all my FS Display Settings are set to minimum.

2.Everytime when I first load a plane up and I set it to spot view the plane is like a million miles away(not literaly),I know I can simply go to the view settings and zoom in on the plane but is there any modification to start off the plane spot view from a closer distance to the aircraft?

3.I'm not that knowledgeable about all them computer frame rates and all so can you all tell me up to what number should I have the Display frame rate setting in FS2002 set to?

Guys I would Really Appreciate Your Help,Thanks!

Can't increase visibility. It's much closer to real life this way.

Use tcdsview (download from the library).

20 or more depending on your system. If it's a haggard old excuse for a computer fit only for museum display, 18.
