Landing lights not illumonating the ground

Post by TheHighFlight »

Hello, I recently bought the C182 Skylane and today did my first night flight. I am using P3Dv4. The landing lights however do not illuminate the ground when I am in the VC view. On the outside view however the runway is illuminated.

Thanks for any solutions, cheers Alex

Hello Alex and welcome to the A2A forums.

Please can you confirm if you've downloaded and run the separate P3D v4 version of the installer?

Also, please can you double check that you've got "landing lights illuminate ground" ticked in the P3D lighting settings screen? If so, please can you also let us know if you're using "dynamic lighting" setting or not?

Thanks,
Nick
