ITC v4.5 is now available. The legacy FWL 3.2 version has been discontinued permanently. Feel free to message me directly if you need the FWL 3.2 version.

New features: ITC now has an "Advanced Settings" option. Experienced users can create a "compatibility profile" with other mods/lua scripts. These settings are saved to the settings.itc file. NOTE: Changing Advanced Settings will disable ITC presets, as preset behavior cannot be guaranteed when certain features are disabled.

This is likely the last feature update for ITC for a while, as I have other projects to work on. Bug fixes and X Plane compatibility patches will continue for the foreseeable future.

Check out ITC on the ITC YouTube channel:

---------------------------------

ITC has been completely rewritten, and is now a standalone plugin. It does not require FlyWithLua, Reshade, Nvidia filters, or any other library to work. Simple drag and drop installation, or use the included installer.

ITC allows you to customize X Plane 12's lighting and atmosphere. It also includes night lighting enhancements for a more realistic look.

Key features:

Adjust intensity of night lighting to suit your preference.

Adjust daytime lighting and atmosphere.

Adjust intensity of night sky.

Save and load up to three presets, with keybind support (search ITC in keybind menu).

Set a default preset to load when X Plane starts up.

Adjust cloud size, scale, and shape.

Change color of far night lighting in real time.

The plugin is fully compatible with other lights.txt mods and default lighting and has an Advanced Settings option to disable specific dataref controls, allowing experienced users to create compatibility profiles with other mods/scripts.

--

Note screenshots represent custom values, they're used to give an idea of what types of changes can be achieved. Find your own preset and use that!

The mod is versatile. You can use just the lights, just the plugin, your own lights, other light mods, or any combination. It's up to you.

To Update ITC:

Use the new "Install Update" feature in the ITC Installer, or manually copy itc.xpl from your downloaded folder to the Resources\plugins\ITC\win_x64\ folder. Replace the file when prompted.

Automatic Installation:

Open the ITC Installer.exe. Select components to install, and click the Install button. Navigate to your X Plane 12 root folder (the folder containing X-Plane 12.exe, if the installer doesn't find it automatically), this folder is usually:

C:\X-Plane 12 for standalone, or

C:\Program Files(x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\xplane12 for Steam users. 

NOTE: Your X Plane 12 installation folder may vary. The installer will prompt you if it doesn't find the correct files.

Hit OK and let the installer copy files and you're done.

Manual Installation:

Unzip the zip file and copy the entire "ITC" folder to your Resources\plugins folder for X Plane 12. NOTE: Check for a sub folder after unzipping. The folder structure should be ITC\win_x64\, not ITC v4.5\ITC\win_x64.

For the optional light changes:

Go to C:\X-Plane 12\Resources\bitmaps\world\lites and make a backup copy of lights.txt and 1000_lights_close.png, then copy the files from the Optional Lights folder and paste them into the C:\X-Plane 12\Resources\bitmaps\world\lites folder.

--

Make a copy of default files prior to installing. If you have issues with the mod, you can restore default files:

On Steam, go to your Library, right click X Plane 12, select Properties>Local Files, and click Verify Integrity of game files.

On Standalone, go to your X Plane 12 folder and run the X Plane 12 Installer, click to Update, allow it to scan files, and when prompted, allow it to replace old files.

--

Launch X Plane and find it under Plugins>ITC Light Mod>Main Window.

To use preset keybinds:

Go to your keybind menu and search for "ITC." They may be at the bottom of the list. You can load presets without opening the ITC window.

To use the jetway sounds:

Search your keybinds for "ITC Jetway" and bind a key/key combo to that. Jetways will activate and play relevant sound files. Some aircraft have jetway sounds built in. In that case you can use the default keybind, "Service the airplane with Jetways." Choose your own keybind or use both, it's up to you.

To modify jetway volume, go to the Extra Options menu and set your desired volume level. Jetway volume is saved to your presets.

Note: Jetway sounds are compatible with default airport jetways. SAM and Autogate jetways play their own sounds and will not activate with the ITC Jetway keybind or the default keybind.

---------------------------------

FAQ:

Q: My screen is flickering after installing ITC. What's going on?

A: It's most likely a lua script conflict. Many visual enhancing lua scripts operate every frame, and that causes the screen flickering. Disabling cloud controls may resolve the issue, otherwise removing the Lua script, or ITC will fix the problem.

Q: Is ITC Light Mod compatible with VR?

A: Partially. The changes made with the mod are fully VR compatible, however some headsets may not display the floating ITC window. It's recommended you make changes outside of VR, save a preset, then load it when you're in VR with a keybind. Hopefully full VR support will be in a future version.

Q: Is ITC compatible with 4k?

A: Yes, partially. However, if you're using a UI scale of 150%, you will not be able to interact with the ITC window. It's recommended you lower the scale temporarily to 100%, make changes in ITC, and save your presets. There may also be some UI issues. Full 4k support will hopefully be included in a future version.

Q: I have a "notice" message in ITC and I can't make any changes. What's going on?

A: Reducing your UI scale to 100% in X Plane settings will resolve the issue. Currently, ITC does not support 150% UI scaling. The notice is there to let you know of the issue and how to correct it.

Q: Is the ITC Installer a virus/malware? Windows Defender is warning me about it.

A: No, it's not malware. xplane.to scans every file for viruses. The installer copies files to and from folders, which triggers Windows Defender's threat protection. You can click "Run Anyway" to bypass this. If you're not comfortable running it, manual installation is a simple drag and drop process.

Unfortunately for me with 4k resolution the UI is unresponsive. Even though "User Interface Size" is set to 100% on the graphics settings (added an image to the User Gallery in case it helps debug). Pictures here look great though.

Best plugin for XP

When unzipping I do not see this for standalone Unzip the zip file and copy the entire "ITC" folder to your Resources\plugins folder for X Plane 12. NOTE: Check for a sub folder after unzipping. The folder structure should be ITC\win_x64\, not ITC\ITC\win_x64. All I see is these folders below, no ITC\win_x64.

Hello, with 4.2 standalone update, the gui is unresponsive when I click it. I use the installer option and can that the plugin is changing lighting effects but I can't modify settings or close the GUI once open. Any idea what I can do to fix? Thanks

Hi! And how this mod correlates with this RXP XP12 Enhancer?

X-Plane 12.1.3 and using v4.0 of ITC plugin. Plugin UI is unresponsive and once called it will not even close. Using Lua script 3.2 and seems ok.

Hi,

Do you think you will build a Linux version also?

Thanks.

Excellent mod, it really makes the night lighting incredible and gives nice controls for adjusting.

I used the installer to install the plugin, did this automatically change the lites files, and if so can you let me know what other files the mod replaces for the atmospheric and lighting effects?

Thanks!

Awesome addon, I've been using it for a while now and V4 is even better. However I got 2 suggestions for it.

Add "Set as default" option to the presets, I don't want to be opening the plugin window every time just to load my preset.

Add an option to disable cloud controls, some people here use other addons for clouds and we don't need ITC to be causing issues.

when I re-open the menu all changes revert back to normal..

This is the best light addon I have tried. I do love it and really easy to use. But I have a question. I have set the brightness as my love, and save it to preset1, 3. I found preset 1 always auto restore to default. It not a very important problem for me. My question is, how to save my setting as default? I mean everytime I start a new flight can direct show me the effect as my setting?

Actually the default sky color itself is perfect

it's gonna be better sir if you make a separate version of lights only with the same sky and clouds

Thanks again for the mod

Thanks for the Mod

but unfortunately I can't save any presets , it is not compatible with rxp enhancer mod.. I can save it only when I remove it

Can u make only light mod without the sky and clouds edit ?

Download shows Error 404 File Not Found? Was it removed?

Fantastic plugin! My favorite. Makes night flying more immersive. I can't seem to get Presets to save, however. I click Save Preset, and when i load it later its back to something else. Otherwise fantastic!

Hello, amazing mods esp with volumetric lights with minor fps impact, it would be amazing if i know how to keep the default xplane colors, can you please tell me how can i use default skycolors and cloud colors while using this mod?

Causes crash upon loading. Toliss A320Neo

  • Version v4.5 January 20, 2025

    v4.5 changelog:

    Added a new "Advanced Settings" menu.

    Added dataref control checkboxes. Users can disable individual dataref control for compatibility purposes.

    Disabled datarefs are saved to the settings file, allowing users to create a "compatibility profile" with other mods/lua scripts.

    Presets are now disabled if Advanced Settings are modified to prevent undefined behavior.

    Added UI feedback for Advanced Settings modified.

    Added a "Check All" button to the Advanced Settings.

    Added a UI notice for users running at 150% scaling to notify them of the known issue with 150%s scaling. This is a temporary workaround while I investigate resolving the issue directly.

    Refactored a lot of code on the back end to increase ITC stability/performance.

    Corrected the upload file to include relevant folders.

  • Version v4.2 December 25, 2024

    v4.2 changelog:

    Added a new "Settings" menu.

    Added the ability to choose a default preset when X Plane loads.

    Added new "Cloud Control" in the settings menu (enabled or disabled). Disabling cloud controls may help with compatibility with other mods/lua scripts (use if needed).

    Addeded extensive error handling with the settings file to ensure stability.

    Refactored some code on the back end to optimize ITC further.

    Updated the ITC Installer to version 1.4:

    The installer now automatically searches for X Plane in the two most common locations (standalone and Steam on the C:\ drive) and auto populates the file path, if found it requires no additional user input.

    Added an "Install Update" option, which preserves your presets and settings file.

    Added a "Change Folder" button, allowing users to choose which folder ITC should be installed to.

    Added additional error handling for ITC not found, ITC corrupted, and X Plane not found in selected folders.

    Fixed an issue with the installer reporting ITC files installed and validated without running the appropriate checks.

    Fixed an issue with the installer disabling the install button in undefined ways.

    Fixed an issue with the installer possibly not installing the lights correctly.

    Updated the UI.

    Added user feedback for successful update.

    ------

    Merry Christmas, happy holidays, and happy new year! Thank you all for supporting ITC.

  • Version v4.0 November 20, 2024

    v4.0 changelog:

    Rewrote the entire plugin in C++. ITC is now a standalone plugin that does not require FWL.

    Added extensive error handling, optimization, and failure handling for performance/stability.

    Removed redundant/deprecated checkboxes from the "Extra Options" menu.

    Built in scaling features. ITC grabs default values directly from X Plane, and will disable
    individual features if it has issues loading the dataref.

    Added dynamic UI scaling for 4k resolution (WIP).

    Rebuilt the ITC presets with new values.

    Corrected the order of the ozone sliders.

    Updated the UI to a smaller, semi-transparent window, added a collapse button.

    Enhanced the behaviour of the keybinds.

    Added an appropriate shutdown routine.

    Enhaned the behaviour of the load preset functions, reducing the risk of undefined values.

    Added user feedback to the save/load functions of presets.

    Added native logging from ITC, which is found in the Log.txt file.

    Rewrote file i/o functionality, which hopefully eliminates an ongoing issue with dynamic save/load.

    ITC Installer Changes:

    Updated the ITC installer to v1.0. It now requires less user input, and correctly installs ITC as a standalone plugin.

    Added proper file checks to reduce the possibility of user errors.

    Included required dependencies in the folder.

    Modified the UI.

  • Version v3.2 August 01, 2024

    v3.2 Changelog:

    ITC no longer loads Preset 1 on startup. Use a keybind or manually load the preset in the UI.

    Added Bloom slider to "Extras" menu.

    Included the ITC Installer.

    Uploaded as a .zip rather than a .rar, which is more universal.

  • Version v3.0 September 15, 2023

    v3.0 Changelog:

    Added new Moon Light control under Extra Options. It is saved to presets.

    Modified lights.txt and brought back in very minimal light spills.

    Removed Old Timey and Kill Moon as those were just memes.

  • Version v2.8 May 28, 2023

    v2.8 Changelog:

    Added Jetways Volume slider to "Extra Options" menu. Volume setting is saved to your preset.
