This is a lighting tweak for pmdg 737. I found external lights are pretty dimmed in original settings. So, I boosted the intensity. Below you can find all changes I make;
Caution : Please back up Effects folder located in your community folder. Community/pmdg-aircraft-737/Effects
Installation:
It is a drag and drop mod simply put Effects folder inside Community/pmdg-aircraft-737
Navigation lights (Green and Red) :
- Intensity level increased.
- Coverage area slightly increased.
- Volumetric lighting effect increased.
Navigation lights (White) :
- Intensity significantly increased. ( In original setting its impossible to see those lights. Which are clearly seen in real life)
- Light color changed from led (cool white) to warm white to match real life color.
Strobes (Including Tail):
Strobes was okay in my opinion so I haven’t increased values a lot but still boosted intensity.
- Intensity increased.
- Coverage area increased.
Beacon Lights (Top, belly and top wing) :
- Intensity level increased.
- Coverage area significantly increased.
Landing, runway and taxi lights:
Overall, they were pretty accurate and strong enough but I still increased intensity of the light now in my opinion closer to real life
Important Note: I have done this change for my personal use and friends. I decided to share it after I got positive feedback from my friends. I have tried my best to represent what real 737 lighting looks like. Its drag and drop so if you think it’s not appeal to you, you can easily switch to original. I am still working on it so take it as a WIP there are some spot I am not %100 satisfied and I will push an update as soon as I get free time.
Here is a real life 737 night take off: https://www.youtube.com/clip/UgkxEAjry7LJ8-XZeuGwMFsQbhw-44Eu5Cpc
I would love to use this.
Do you maybe still have a link to it?

I loved this mod before the recent 737 update where now it seems the trailing nav light on the wing doesn't illuminate the winglet. Can you pls update this for the latest update and re-up? Thanks 😊

Okay! this is good for make it look like a youtube video,, but, in real life the hole wing get illuminated and the winglets are super illuminated, so much they have a glow I would love to recreate this on MSFS, can you tweak it again so the whole wing can be illuminated? And give it more light to the winglet?
Man, i really miss to see that in real life, that moment when the plane turn landing and wing lights before take off or landing is pure magic to me!!! One second you only see a few part of the winglet and the other second the whole wing lights up!
