Lighting Effects

[mick1]

Hi All,...
Couple of questions:

1. When I first set up FSX, it seemed I got things like random grass fires etc, and now I don't. Any idea why? Could something have gotten tweaked that now makes them not visible?

2. Anyone know of any replacement effects that will make airfield lights and reunway lights show up a longer ways out? Seems to me there were some halo effects that made airstrips show up a really long wasy away, which really helped me in finding stuff at night. Also, I dont seem to ever see the rotating green/white beacons at airports. Anyone know of any replacement lights that would brighten these up, as well?

Thanks...
