Weird... the X-Plane 10 traffic is almost absurdly visible on my system. The lights are incredibly bright. I can see them from 20 miles away occasionally.

I had that issue as well until I updated my PE client and switched to HDR rendering full time. Before I did, the lights were larger than the planes themselves at anything more than a mile away.

The way it is now, it's just slightly harder than the r/w to spot traffic, which IMO is a good thing.

I know this much - I had no problems spotting aircraft yesterday evening. That was awesome!

Yeah, in X-Plane I never had trouble spotting traffic as the nav lights are so bright.

It just seems like in FSX that the NAV lights aren't always on for drones? (at least not on my system.) For other human traffic on PE it looks fine.
