In addition to night lighting, when flying in daytime and the panel is in the shadow, its very difficult to see the gauges. Seems to me you should be able to light it, but I can't figure out how.Lon

Thanks for repleying, I can't believe nobody has an answer for this.Wilson HinesUAL006VHQCCSenior Vice President, Corporate Communicationshttp://virtual.united.com --------------------------------------Proficiencies: PSS 747,777, A32x, CS 727,PMDG 737-700---------------------------------------FS2002|ActiveSky|FSRealTime|FSBuild2|FSNav|Jep SimCharts2|ACLoaderhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/checkcapt.jpghttp://heavylhc.com/images/av/anna.jpg

Wilson,If I'm not mistaken the night lighting, or the lighting as a whole, in the VC is controlled by MSFS. It's the same thing with any other plane I think.Cheers,

Are you using MSFS 2002? Make sure Multitexturing is checked. Should solve your night time problems.As for day time light, I believe someone uploaded to AVSIM some time ago a vc light for the pmdg737. Check the library.Hope this helps!VinPMDGwww.precisionmanuals.comhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/devteam.jpg
