Landing Lights - Cockpit Illumination

Post by BrettT »

I have noticed that the landing lights in the Connie will Illuminate the inside of the cockpit, including under the windows which doesn't seem right. It is almost as if they are shining through the airplane. Not sure if this is how the real deal is or if this is intentional to give a little light in a blacked out cockpit. Any feedback would be appreciated

Hi Brett.
I am assuming you use P3D , i use FSX and have not noticed this , but its been a while since i flew the connie , so will have to check this out , just to be sure.
If you are using P3D , it would help others to know which sim you are refering to , so they can help.

Hello Brett,

The latest hotfix for P3Dv5 made some significant changes to the existing dynamic lighting. We'll check the throw of the L-049 landing lights to see if a small update if necessary.

Thanks,
