enlarged signal light

[bennycdn]

The signal lighs are enlarged on Mactier. What file do I need to edit?

[ebnertra000]

Sigcfg.dat, namely the Radius ( xxx ) line of each SignalLight in the file. There are a lot of them, but the Replace tool of most text editors makes short work of them. Typically I use 0.104 for 8" lenses.

You may need to change the light texture, as well. You can either change the texture referenced in the sigcfg (right up top), or overwrite the existing texture

The open rails signal light glow checkbox is designed around default MSTS values. Over the years, route builders who lacked the ability to check a similar enhancement box in MSTS (because there was none) resorted to changing (enlarging) the radius values in the SigCfg file AND replacing the siglight.ace file.

Which Route? ( Ok missed that = Mactier, which I don't have on my laptop ). Might be able to determine if it used the updated light ace that showed lights further. Of course turning off Light Glow in OR might well solve your problem. I have routes that I need it on and others with it off. Found that a lot easier than modifying the signal codes of each route.

Thanks,that did it. 0.104 radius.
