POSKY 737NG and panel by Paul Scarratt (PS Panels)

[Guest JollyRoger]

Hi all!I'm trying to set up the B738 from POSKY with the great panel from Paul Scarratt (setup.zip here at AVSIM).In the panel readme it says that the [LIGHT] section of the aircraft.cfg probably needs some changes to fit with the panel light switches. But I don't see what changes...Did anyone modify the [LIGHT] section with good results? If yes, please post it here.Many thanks!J.R.

J.R.:Here's that section from my aircraft.cfg file. I'm pretty sure I made the recommended changes, but I can't find Paul's documentation on my computer right now, so please check it first.

JR-No, that's the -700, but as I recall the only changes necessary had to do with renumbering the light TYPES, not their positions, so that the switches operated the correct lights -- if that's what you're getting at.

Ok, just took her for a test flight. All lights 'n switches work fine! :( You're right, it's only about renumbering the light types. Thanks for your great help, Chuck! :( GreetsJ.R.
