Installing the lights into 3rd party aircraft?
Posted: 31 Jul 2017, 00:18
First up, I don't use generic panels in the aircraft I fly but 3rd party panels.
Those panels do not have a VCockpit01 section within the Panel .cfg. Therefore, editing the Panel .cfg (as per the rubbish manual) cannot be done.
As such, will the lights works without that panel .cfg edit?
I have installed the lights into, for example, the SMS 747 and 737-700 and don't see any difference in the lighting at all so I can only assume that the panel .cfg does have to be edited accordingly and that, in my case, cannot be done due to the non existence of the VCockpit01 section.
Also, I applied the update (the utility thing) and checked the "show landing lights all the time" and that also doesn't happen. Could be I have wasted my money on these lights?
