    Default Lightning in FSX

    Awesome stuff as usual Peerboom! Looks dangerous.
    I just noticed in the fifth picture, what are those lights? They look like wing lights that have been miscalibrated in the config file, cos they're in midair?!

    Thanks Tom and Larry!
    Tom: those are "lightning balls" (don't know how to call them in English)they "explode" like the real ones. Oh, and when a lightning hits the ground you see some smoke.
    Larry: I like the old 247, it flies like a dream.

    Looks very cool to me Jan - would be interested to see some more pics in a low-light environment, perhaps dusk. Take care Mein Herr! Mike ;)

    Nice pics Jan, looks like a good lightning improvement. I noticed that lack of prop discs on show, is this due to the plane not being true FSX or is it just the screens?

    cheers

    It's the usual lack of prop discs in FSX when you add a cloudlayer. this is Jen's new FSX B-247. Thanks Keith :-)

    Thanks Compadre!! These add-on lightnings "last" longer so it's more easy to catch them.

    Talking about scary skies: this is what we got in Amsterdam this afternoon, I took the pic through our bedroom window just before the rain started. (sorry for the compression)
