I think it's a graphics engine problem. Memoirs suggest that they could see quite well all things considered. Darkness in FS is always pitch black, I have managed to read a news paper by starlight on a good night. Moonlight is even brighter.

Who switched the lights off? I can't see a thing....... Hold on, my eyes were closed. Oops, my bad...............&&

I think that a Freeware Lancaster might persuade me to reinstall CFS3. All we need to do is code an OBOE and H2S2 guage.

EDIT: And search lights and flares (The bright glowey things, not the trousers). Pathfinder missions would be fun, you could do them in in a Mossie, or trying to find a Dam whilst flying over the Ruhr Valley at 70 feet in a four engined heavy in the dark would be a challenge to say the least.

Search lights and flares are already avaliable and Groundcrew have been teasing us with a Lancaster for years.

You've really got to crank up the brightness/contrast on either your graphics card or monitor when flying at night. Accepted you can see quite well on a clear moon lit night but its still darn near impossible to spot a small fast moving aeroplane.

You get a Lancaster with the Firepower add on - it's on Amazon.co.uk for £4.99 - http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0000A12T1/qid=1140974744/sr=8-1/ref=pd...

You get 2 versions, one of them with the 12000lb Tallboy.

All we need is for someone to create the Norway Scenery....

There may be light at the end of the tunnel, I've passed on the source file to someone who has (hopefully) more time to complete it than me. Wink
