Wing- and engine reflections are missing. (PMDG) *SOLVED*

Post by windh »

Hi.

I´ve been using A2A Redux lights for a while (FS9), but one thing bothers me.

Since I installed them, the wing- and engine light reflexions are gone. They are still in the corresponding aircraft.cfg, but they do not appear at night.


This is for both the 737´s and the 744 by PMDG.




Any help appreciated!!

PROBLEM SOLVED:


I found the problem: In some way, the [LIGHTS] section of the different PMDG aircrafts were missing the correct lines for the reflections.

If anyone else ever has this problem; Here are the settings:

Just open your Aircraft/PMDGTYPE-X/Aircraft.cfg file and enter these lines under [LIGHTS] for the corresponding aircrafts:


PMDG B747-400 and B747-400F:


[LIGHTS]
light.0 = 3, -225.90, 0.30, 4.72, fx_navwhih, //Position Aft
light.1 = 3, -225.90,-0.30, 4.72, fx_navwhih, //Position Aft
light.2 = 1, -33.596, 0.00, 14.868, fx_shockwave_beacon_rotating_red, //Beacon Top

Haven´t installed Redux Lights on the 739, since I very rarely fly it.

Hope it helps.

//Johan


p.s. the settings also include correct positions for all lights and aircrafts! :)
