ScottyBs Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Hi, Only issue I am having at the moment is the beacon is not visible - with power and switch cycled. Thanks Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airspeed Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Same for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobias Nome Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 I expirience that the effects are all pretty faded out. I think this stems from the same problem - there might be a beacon effect, but a bit faded out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Can you show us your lighting settings? The new files double the light output and are close too being too bright on our test machines.

mpantel69 Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Same issue here. With both landing and beacon lights always off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobias Nome Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Might it have something to do with HDR? I have that turned off, since recently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
02vallancel Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Hi everyone, I'm having the exact same issue. Beacon, nav and landing lights are actually completely invisible in my case. Here are my lighting settings in P3D v5. As you can see, no HRD. So far I have only noticed this issue during the day. I'm not sure the situation is during the night.

Thomas Ammann Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Same issue here with the Lights! I noticed that sometimes i see the lights, dependig on the outside view. Maybe a issue from LM During Nighttime all Lights are visible, only during the Day sometimes i cant see the Lights. On the first Day Picture you can see the Lights but not very bright, second Pic you cant see any Lights during TakeOff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schafsviech Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Same here. With P3Dv5 HF1 und a fresh purchased and installed A330. Lighting Settings below. Please help.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin Mathijs Kok Posted June 5, 2020 Root Admin Share Posted June 5, 2020 Mmmmmm how strange. None of our testers can recreate this issue and I am running out of idea why this happens. We hope that Lockheed swiftly releases the new version as we have the idea it is a simulator issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, HDR is a very subjective choice and people are split down the middle when it comes to enabling it. Are you saying that HDR should be enabled in order to get the external lights working properly, or that it's a personal choice that you recommend? Cheers, Louis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hungrypilot Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 I am experiencing the same issue. Only in the darkest of night can you actually see the landing/taxi/wing/turnoff lights illuminating the aircraft or the ground... even then the beacon is barely visible. During the dawn/day/dusk, almost none of the lights are visible at all. Edit: It almost seems like the beacon effect is inside the airframe, rather than in the lens. Not sure if that has any relevance or not... also, there aren't any changes in the lighting settings that affect this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Louis Louis, this is not a personal opinion: The only thing I recommend is to turn down "Bloom" to at least nearly zero. My personal opinion: I do not use P3Dv5, due to the many bugs, like memory management, still not full compatible 3rd party addons etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My personal opinion: I do not use P3Dv5, due to the many bugs, like memory management, still not full compatible 3rd party addons etc. That's interesting. Nowhere in the english language product description is HDR listed as a requirement, and I do not find any reference to the HDR setting in any of the PDF documentation files. Apart from the standard effect, I do not notice anything special with regard to the airbus cockpit lighting when HDR is enabled, so I don't see why it would be listed as a requirement (especially when it's such a personal choice). Could anyone from development comment on this? If there is a tangible benfit to enabling HDR with the Aerosoft Airbus then I will definitely consider enabling it at all times. Cheers, Louis Edit: My post is probably off-topic, so I'll refrain from commenting further on this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin Mathijs Kok Posted June 6, 2020 Root Admin Share Posted June 6, 2020 I will have that added, becaue the whole development is done with HDR in mind. It is virtually impossible to make something that looks good in both conditions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrice_cesson Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 For me too, the external lights are very low during the day, even the landing lights are almost invisible... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin Mathijs Kok Posted June 11, 2020 Root Admin Share Posted June 11, 2020 If you report this, please add a screenshot of the lights settings of the sim and a screenshot of what you believe is unrealistic. For example landing lights in daytime with sun should be extremely hard to detect, you really need a very well tuned monitor to see the landing lights. Sunlight at noon is about 200 times brighter than the landing lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrice_cesson Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Hi Mathijs, Here are the images: On P3DV5 HF1, default scenery, EA weather activated Here the Aerosoft A330 with HDR, all exterior lights activated: we cannot see any lights For a comparison, the NGXU from PMDG, same scene, same weather, but no HDR, all lights activated too. and here my light settings: Patrice.
