Title: night lighting
Post by: luis70 on December 11, 2008, 10:49:21 pm: Hi,

First of all, congratulations for this fantastic scenery.

I have a doubt concerning the night lighting in the apron. The apron appears to me very, very dark and even when I turn on my taxi lights I have serious troubles to follow the taxi lines and the parking signs.

Any suggestion?

Post by: Rafal on December 12, 2008, 12:33:33 am: I must agree with the above.
I've just finished an F100 night-time hop from Zurich and was blind while taxiing from rwy05 to the stand.
Strange!

Best regards,
Rafal

Post by: martyc on December 12, 2008, 04:39:19 pm: same to me, and for well knowing that airport cause I live in the area I can say that there is a lot of green centerline missing at night.

Meantime : At lsgg, most of the time the runway lights are on all the day, expet in summer, is it possible, like other developper does, to add, lets say in a nav2 frequency the abilitie to switch off and on the runways lights? >Should be great and realistic.

A big thank you for that wonderful airport which has been a lot forgotten before you did it !!

Post by: mackintosh on December 13, 2008, 10:02:07 am: Yep, add my surprise to the list as well. There are no green taxiway lights anywhere whatsoever. Surely that's not the normal state of affairs at Geneva?

Post by: Alessandro on December 13, 2008, 11:30:23 am: The taxi lighting will be improved on next week.

Post by: petermaxkoller on December 13, 2008, 11:48:04 pm: Hi

I installed it in the FSX version:

Taxiway lights are mucht to bright and to close one to the other.
The taxiway lights from Zürich are much better, why dont you use the same lights as LSZH?

Thanks Peter

Title: Re: night lighting
Post by: luis70 on December 14, 2008, 12:53:48 am: wow, thank you very much for the new taxiway lights.

Now it´s really great.

Just one thing, the apron is still too dark and even with the taxi lights on it´s really hard to see the parking signs on the floor and so to reach the correct stand.

Any fix is expected?
Title: Re: night lighting
Post by: Flyingnut on December 14, 2008, 12:55:14 am: That's much better!

Can anything like that be done for LSZH? See my post: http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php?topic=1351.0 (http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php?topic=1351.0)

We do not have documentation to see if the real airport have the taxi "inner" enlightened, if you have real charts or documentation with the lights reported, please send me and will be implemented in the next service pack.

I do not know if there is a taxiway lighting of the "Inner". By against there is an ambient lighting that will see the lines of taxiways. In Geneva's scenery at night it was difficult to see the lines ... especially the "links" which makes the taxi very difficult to go to the gate.
and sorry for my english ::)

Post by: Yvan-AIB1038 on December 17, 2008, 08:54:59 pm: Hi,
In Geneva there are 2 main taxiways One is INNER and other is OUTER between there are 3 groups of gates (perhaps say "satellites" like in french ??). Again to go from INNER to OUTER (or the other way) there are 5 taxiways named "LINKS 1 to 5".

Post by: luis70 on March 05, 2009, 03:47:54 pm: Hi,

It´s really disapointing to see that such a wonderfull scenery has a serious problem with night lighting which has been reported by Yvan.

I was hoping FSDT will have fixed it .... >:( >:(
