I have the same problem... Nav and Strobe lights wont come on unless either A) the landing / taxi light is on or :( I get lucky and hit the sweet spot in the external view and get to catch a glimps of the lights. As stated above this excludes the cockpit and landing / taxi lighting.

Hello thereI have the same problem, totally the same. I can always see the landing lights and wing lights (and also tail) but the others, well it greatly depends on which angle you can get the view in...On the Boeing 747-400X I can't get the tail lights to work at all!Any ideas?Kimberly.

There are two possible problems here:1) There seems to be a problem with FSX DX10 Preview mode: The nav/strobes/position/beacon lights will not appear unless there is a landing light on.2) Be sure your special effects slider is maximized.
