Luka Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 Hi, everytime I fly at night and climb above 2000 ft my cockpit gets all lit up (see picture). Even with all lights off, this is really annoying, any fix for this?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hullu-poika Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 I do not have this with XP10, either with and without XEnviro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmerelles Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 I think this is an issue with xplane that the cabin is lighting the cockpit as if no cockpit door were present. Try to change the seatbelt position to turn off the cabin light and see if this cure the problem for now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luka Posted November 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 Ok so turning the seatbelt sign back on (or leaving it on) doesn't stop the cabin lights from turning on. They turn on at around FL180 and turn back of at FL100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Litjan Posted November 4, 2017 Report Share Posted November 4, 2017 because you dont put it to on - only to AUTO. Try again, please. Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan I know the difference between AUTO and on... Anyway, back to the point. That seems to work, only it takes 10m to dim the lights, hence why I didn't notice it when posting this.

That seems to work, only it takes 10m to dim the lights, hence why I didn't notice it when posting this. Ah - ok. I have noticed this, too. Sometimes it takes a few minutes for the light-level to register... The whole thing is somewhat of a mystery to us (and the staff at Laminar Research, too). First, the "LIT" texture in the cabin should not cast light on the cockpit in the first place - even if there was no backwall or door to the cockpit at all. It is not a dynamic 3D light...so we have no idea why it does that. Second, no one has any idea why it takes a few minutes for X-Plane to register the new light-level. The good news is that we are planning to add a better 3D cabin with 3D lights in a future update - at that point I hope that these problems will go away. For now my workaround (if you suffer from the time-delay) is to simply leave the Fasten belt switch to ON.
