The Moon

[dandog]

Hello All. Is there a way to brighten up the moon in FSX? I have the 15 HD moon textures, but the moon still looks dull all of the time. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Edit the textures and make them brighter with a paint program?

moonglow.bmp, moonglow_right.bmp, and moonglow_left.bmp in the main texture folder are the ones to brighten.

I did as suggested, and like the results! I actually did something myself for a change. :jump:

Now only if it would brighten the whole sky as in real life!
