What do you mean with "more realistic" ? Your screenshot is not very clear. You want them smaller ?

B738SXD:
Yes i think they are too big, if you compare them with engines or the main gear  :)

They aren't. I just made a bit of research, and it seems traffic cones comes in several standard sizes, with the largest one being 36 inches, which I guess is used for airliners, which is what GSX is geared towards. Other standard sizes are 18 and 28 inches in height:

I measured the 3 models we supply with GSX, and they are ALL about 36 inches, some 1-2 inches less, some 1-2 more, but they are basically all the same so, they are all of the correct (highest) standard size.

Just for the sake of precision, I changed the size slightly for them to be EXACTLY 36" inches, and while I was at it, I added some better textures. You can get them by downloading one of the vehicle update installers now. I think you'll notice the new texture way more than the SLIGHT change in size. They were already *basically* correct, now they are 100% entirely correct.

Of course, we could always improve, add the 18" and the 28" variations, and make some kind of logic to decide depending on airplane size, but that's another issue that can always be added. But the cones size WAS, basically, correct. At least for a large airliner.

In P3d choose Avatar mode and stand next to them, you would need a forklift to move the cones or share the load between 2 lol, but thats my view, personally i would prefer the option to turn them off with the GSX editor.
