bradley27 26 Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Maybe answered before? I have noticed that the familiar street lighting seems to be missing from these 2 addons for FSX?Its quite common to see street lights and rather impressive night lighting assisted by ORBX FTX Global/Vector/Open LC Europe. I understand that this might be because both islands are covered by a photographic base image but is there any work around?I have seen the Aerosoft published Night Environment for Spain but i dont have problems with mainland Spain its just these Bealerics that are proving atad annoying...Help or opinions welcome Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradley27 26 Posted August 17, 2015 Author Share Posted August 17, 2015 The first shot is Berlin (Germany), you can see the night lighting which is supplied via ORBX FTX Global, then the remaining 3 are images from Ibiza and Palma (Both Evo). You can now see there is no street lighting at all and the only lighting is that of the airport and the photographic base images light bloom. Please login to display this image.

Aerosoft Jonas S. 466 Posted August 21, 2015 Aerosoft Share Posted August 21, 2015 I see your problem but i currently don't know how that could be solved. Maybe there is a solution over there at ORBX?Jonas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Cardeira 4 Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 This isn't ORBX fault, because the FTX lights won't display in photosceneries. Since aerosoft didn't model the streets/roads lights ajusted to the photoscenery, to have lighting in the whole island i suggest you to buy Taburet Night Environment IBERIA (it covers the balearic and canary islands too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradley27 26 Posted August 24, 2015 Author Share Posted August 24, 2015 This is technically throwing money away though...ORBX supply a perfectly good night lighting system so to then go and buy something else just seems crazy. It would be nice if Simwings could look into this for the ORBX users especially given that by todays standards street lighting goes without saying? I have seen the Night Enviro Spain in action in a tralier for Mallorca Evo...so if that addon can do it why cant ORBX? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Cardeira 4 Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 I think it's because of the landclass they use on FTX global. FTX lights are adjusted only for their modified ground textures. Even if you disable FTX global and use only ftx lighting on fsx default landclass i bet they will not show. Aerosoft and Taburet lighting are designed to work in every landclass you use in the simulator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradley27 26 Posted August 25, 2015 Author Share Posted August 25, 2015 This is likely as a reply over at ORBX mentions this...i wonder if theres anyway Simwings can look at this?

Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4162 Posted August 25, 2015 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted August 25, 2015 To quote Holger Sandmann (FTX Developer) in this topic:Hi there, while photoreal coverage will suppress the autogen of the FTX Global landclass ground textures, including its 3D lights, the street lighting associated with Vector's urban roads should remain visible. It's possible though that the Aerosoft product excludes all local roads in which case the Vector road lights would disappear as well.

Developer Autopiloth 458 Posted August 26, 2015 Developer Share Posted August 26, 2015 Thanx.Well, try to deactivate the following files of the /*TERRAIN/SCENERY directories of the airports.:Ibiza Evo: cvxIBIZA_EXCL_ROADS.bgl (and/or cvxIBIZA_EXCLUDE_UTX.bgl)Mallorca Evo: cvxEXCLUDEMALLORCAROADSUT.bglNot sure if it will work than, but these are the only files suspected to excude such lights. If the photoground won´t exclude them anyway.Thorsten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradley27 26 Posted August 26, 2015 Author Share Posted August 26, 2015 Just like i said. Your only solution is to buy taburet night iberia. I'll post here some shots and you will see that will be a worth buy! This is only at Mallorca, if you want i upload some ibiza pics too! Not gonna lie, that looks great. Some Ibiza too yes please! Thats what i love about flying at night now in todays FSX....the lights! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradley27 26 Posted August 28, 2015 Author Share Posted August 28, 2015 The suggested deactivation of the 2 files in Ibiza doesn't do what we hoped. A few lights happen to appear but its no way worth really mentioning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer Autopiloth 458 Posted August 29, 2015 Developer Share Posted August 29, 2015 Hi,if that´s the case than nothing can be done by us to make them show. Seems like ORBX lights are simply not compatible to overlaying photo sceneries.Which was intended by Microsoft (photo sceneries covering landclass sceneries) and does not happen by accident or because we did something wrongwith the photo scenery.Thorsten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bell 144 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 currently all standard autogen based lights will be obscured with an active photoreal,Night Environment is the only night lighting system that will work in any setup or scenario combination, our work is often imitated, never duplicated take your pick; all videos on this page are with photoreal(also note our lights illuminate the ground and shine through the photoreal itself for seamless ground effect)http://forums.nightenvironment.com/media.html/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradley27 26 Posted November 23, 2015 Author Share Posted November 23, 2015 To bring up this topic after seeing many others talking about the same issue with Flytampas Dubai...is there a chance for P3Dv3 that 3D night lighting for the island will/can be looked at for the Belearic Evo series (Menorca still to come)? It just seems slightly strange that there is no island lighting in 3D form? Its almost a given in sceneries there days no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
