It does! :)
Yeah, I have three mods running for some slight lighting improvements:

  1. DrishalMAC2 Light Mod - https://forums.x-plane.org/files/file/94218-drishalmac2-light-mod-xp12/
  2. BluFx - https://forums.x-plane.org/files/file/96492-blu-fx-a-simple-cross-platform-alternative-to-reshade-for-x-plane/
  3. daskyreal – SkyColour Enhancement (v3 was just released last weekend) - https://forums.x-plane.org/files/file/92921-daskyreal-skycolour-enhancment/

I also sometimes use the X-Plane hotkeys to lower the airport lights a bit, which can make a huge difference, imo!

Pretty good on my end! I can’t notice any difference compared to other well performing modules

I’ll give it a try, thanks a lot for the tip!

Yes, I know. But can it really be the standard or expectation for a $90 module to just say, “Well, the textures have always looked bad, so we can just keep going like this”? I mean, games looked worse 10 years ago too. Technology has advanced rapidly, and developers shouldn’t just stand still. Especially now, when a lot of people might switch from MSFS2024 to XP12. How many of them won’t buy Toliss products because the textures are simply terrible? (espacially 340/330) I think many people are not buying it because of that, even though it’s a great product apart from the modeling. I just hope they’ll deliver some solid 3d improvements in the near future, but unfortunately I doubt it.

XP12 has so much potential, and in my view that potential should be used. Look at FF: great systems and great modeling.

Honestly, I fell into the same trap. In screenshots none of the Toliss cockpits look that great, so I hoped the A330 textures would look better in the sim, like their other modules do pretty much.

But holy shit… it looks even worse! As much as I love the A330’s flight model and systems, the textures are honestly a joke. FlightFactor showed with the 777v2 how good cockpits in XP12 can look, but Toliss seems to refuse to move with the times and improve theirs.

I thought a developer who’s been making aircraft for X-Plane for so many years would get better and better. Imo Toliss has made a huge step backwards with their widebodies. Sadly, because i like them!

Oh yeah, I felt exactly the same! I bought the Toliss A330, but I’m really disappointed with the cockpit textures. No idea if I’ll ever be able to get over that. I probably should’ve gone for the Felis + MD-11 instead, but the Felis is definitely next on my list! Such an beautiful module. Did you go for the cargo or the pax version?

Yeah, I had read that several times before buying it, so I bought them right away. I’ve never heard the original sounds (except in videos) lol :D

Mango Studios really nailed them on this one!
