Unrealistic day/night hours on sim

The place to ask for help or solve each others technical issues and discuss hardware

Postby BigBird » Tue Nov 25, 2008 10:46 am

I like to fly in real time with real weather conditions.

One thing that I dislike about FSX is when, say for example, you go for a flight at 1800hrs, it is night time on the sim. You look out the window and it is still nice and light and the sun is still reasonably high in the sky. FSX 1600hrs seems more aligned to real life 1800hrs.

Is their anyway to tweak the program to make this more realistic or is there an add on that makes daylight hours more realistic?
