Hi ,
I sometimes sit here for hours trying to capture a good shot of lightning with FS2002 set for thunderstorms and heavy rain . Is there a way to have lightning on demand

Nope, but in order to cheat the lightning turn time compression to its lowest level. Then, when you see a flash, you'll have plenty of time to pause the game and take your pic. Happy hunting ;D

Hi Jamie.........you could stop the sim right after a flash and go for the instant replay and maybe have better chance of catching the "screen grab moment"....just an idea..commoner

Hey commoner ,
Hate to admit it , but guess I am a notch or two below you here in Mineral Wells , Texas . Really not bad down here and guess we have fewer problems than those at the top !!
Have a nice day ,
Jamie
