There are some designers out there enriching or creating better runway lighting, but I haven't seen anything for taxiway lighting.

UndecidedTO MY OPINION THE DEFAULT TAXIWAY LIGHTS ARE TOO DIM!!

Well my point is that you can barely find your way around at night, especially when youu're using a 3rd party plane where the landing or taxi lights don't work.

does anybody know of any way, or 3rd party addition to make taxiway lights brighter.

Thanx!

He he, that reminds me when i was at Atlanta I believe on VATSIM and i was supposed to taxi to runway 27 ( or was it Orlando airport?) and all i had as guide was my GPS. Don't use the GPS! I was scared of ending up on a runway so i asked for help, i was so embarrased, the Controller was like: Sure, let me guide in an aircraft and i will be with you.
I learned to carry my facility charts at nights

As your trouble do the fix i did. Your monitor has a birghtness and contrast buttons rights? Mess with those, it gave me some trouble with my eyes at first but you get used to it. Later
