No, i was talking about enhanced runway lightning, this is what i get when running flightgear with this option: --enable-enhanced-lighting I was not talking about specular highlights. > > Why is it so expensive of frame-rate? > > This is very hardware and driver dependent.

If not, then we should move it to the advanced options. I also want to mention, that MS FS2004 has something similar, but without framerate drop, so there must be another way to display runway lights in such a way.
