Issue with swlights_utility_1.2a.EXE

Post by Yuxtapuestoelmono »

Hello, i am trying to re run the configuration utility to re apply the shockwave configurations for the default aircraft, however, the utility keeps failing, it appears to run properly but no configuration is applied, i tried deleting the backups folder and still the same problem occurs.
Can somebody provide the shockwave light settings for the default FSX aircraft?

Hello?, is this forum still visited by devs or somebody that can answer my question?, perhaps a reader can post the shockwave modified lights sections of the default fsx planes?

Hello!, thanks for replying :D
Well, i had FSX with several add-ons in the past, including shockwave lights redux, last year i decided to reinstall my FSX so i bought the Steam edition, of course i ran the sw lights utility and it installed the appropriate gauges and effects, however it has not installed the configurations for the lights into the default planes, so, i have shockwave lights working and i have applied the configurations into several 3rd party planes and all my AI, but the default planes are still using normal lights, of course i could just modify the configurations myself, but i would prefer to have the full configurations with landing lights.
The utility "runs" and appears to work as far as installing stuff, then it stops at the part where it should apply the configurations and finishes, so it never ever applies the modifications to the aircraft.cfg files.

Hello,

during the install of the FSX Steam edition can you please let me know where you have installed too and if you completely removed the old FSX disc edition from your PC as this can cause issues if remnants of the old install are still present in the system or the registry.

and if you did a full complete install of 3d lights?

thanks,

Yes i had no FS installed as it was after a fresh windows install, i did a full install of 3d lights and then upgraded to redux using the files i had previously downloaded.
I installed FS9 after FSX-SE and after 3d lights, however 3d lights properly recognized fs9 and correctly installed the configurations over there.
If you need proof of purchase i can PM you the details, can you post the configurations in this thread please?

All set, give that new one a go, make sure to remove the old one first. And run the installer as admin.
