Yes they work for all the big ports.
Read careful the Read me files including in the zip file.Usually its a word document.

In most cases you add them in textures folder but you have first to save somewhere the defaults one and then replace them.

Be careful with your steps and feel free to ask anything you like.

thanks! didn't see the readme file among all those picture files ^^

do they works sean?

hm.. doesn't seem to work at KSEA at least..

I just put the files in "addon scenery" --> "textures", because the readme file only directed me to a webpage where it didn't say anything..

Didn't I do it correctly? where should I put the files?

Which one of the above suggested links have you download?

the second one, uneppreviewpackage.zip

This is a payware my friend... 😉 Try ntctytxt.zip it contains a txt file with simple instructions... 😉 and also try RaraMans links.

i just need realistic lights any EASY to install ones?

Ok thanks greekman.. I just downloaded the files. I'm busy with something atm so I'll try to install them later.. I'll keep you updated on how it goes and if they work 🙂

btw, all this time I thought your signature picture was real, just realized it was from FS. haha

LooooL...i will take it as a compliment for my PC perfomance... 😂 😂 😂

Yes its a cropped FS screenshot. 😉

ok I just installed them.. landed at KSEA but didn't really notice any difference.. does this mean they don't work? where could I go/what could I do to check if they work properly? I put everything from both of the unzipped files in scenery --> world --> textures

A fool question..Did you restart FS?It is working for me

You wont notice big difference 😉 except maybe a smooth blue light instead of the default white one.

;(

the taxi lights are so bright I can't even see where I'm heading, lol. that's why I always taxi without lights ^^

edit: talking about the old ones now, still haven't tried the new ones 🙂

ill try the xenon ones greek how can install it i tryed the readme but i didnt help.

Extract spotlight.bmp(including in the XENON subfolder of your Zip file) to your c:\programs\microsoft games\flight simulator 9\ Texture and that was it. 😉

If you want good airport and runway lights use these

I have been using them for a while now and they are great

Just copy the Halo.BMP to the FS2004 texture folder and overwrite the old one.

I have already told you earlier dear George but maybe you miss the post cause a lot of others follow.No problem and no fuss 😉
Is it clear to you my friend?Feel free to ask anything... 😀

Ive tried that and it has simply failed,

Extract this BMP file to your desktop.Cut it from there and paste it into your textures folder.Replace the old one(before you replace you can save you old BMP somewhere just in case you dont like your new ligts.

Every time you add something new in FS you can notice it after you restart it.

Let us know. 😉

Yay finally, i dont know why it failed bit still they work now 🍻
