Help please
Today I noticed that my A2A 182 custom lights are not working (I now have the simulator standard lights),
I then checked the rest of my A2a fleet (all ga), and found the same thing.
I then opened the air craft configurator for each airplane to find yhat there is no longer an option to set the custon lights. The configurator only gives option to set preffered GPS.
I then ran the latest A2A update. Still no lights option.
I then ran the PP3d v4 installers. Still no lights option.
Has anyone her had this experience? If so please share info on how to fix please.
Robin.

Do you have any idea why the custom lights no longer work on my entire A2A fleet?
Do you know how to fix the problem.
Every thing worked fine until tonight when I switched from flying the 182(been flying it exclusively for weeks now) to the 172 (haven't flown it for about a month).
Loaded the 172 at KSEA and found that the 3d lights no longer works. I then tried the rest of the fleet and found that 3D lights no longer work on any A2A airplane.

The custom lights are not applicable to P3D so boring is broken or needs to be fixed. This is an FSX only function so you are all set as is.

Re: Custom Lights
If I understand you, I have just been lucky to have had 3D lights working in all previous versions of pp3d including V4.1 up till today.Oracle427 wrote:The custom lights are not applicable to P3D so boring is broken or needs to be fixed. This is an FSX only function so you are all set as is.
Guess it would be interesting to figure what changed today or better yet; what was broken in all my previous PP3d versions including V4.1, that allowed the 3d lights to work until today.
I hope it is not a text or document file as I am going to try rolling back windows 10 to an earlier date with the hope that whatever was broken will be broken again and give me back 3D lights.
Thanks.

Re: Custom Lights
I'll let someone else with P3D comment on specifics. As I understand from other forum posts this should not function in P3D. Are you saying that you lost an actual visual effect in the sim or just the option to install the feature?

Re: Custom Lights
I have lost the visual effect of the custom landing lights. This effect has always worked for me through all versions of PP3d that I have had.

I didn't miss the option from the configurator until today. (I don't mess with configurator settings much.)

Re: Custom Lights
Robin - please see my reply here. Can you check to see if "dynamic lighting" is ticked in the P3D settings?
Thanks,
Nick
