FS9 reflections

Postby mustang51 » Sun Jul 01, 2007 3:25 pm

In settings-display-aircraft with the reflections box checked some of the aircraft are a little to bright for me. Is there a way to tone this down some?
Thanks for the info.

Yes there is but I think that is a hell of a lot of work. You could try to change the Alpha channel in the aircraft's textures with a tool called DXTBMP. It what we Dutch call a 'monks job', but if editing and painting aircraft is your cuppa tea then you might actually enjoy it ...

And you could also try flying in the dark. ;D

Harold.....don't like flying in the dark much and I am not very bright about this computer stuff, so guess I'll do with it as is.
Thanks for the reply.
