I just jumped into my MD-11 and flew this evening and I noticed the Taxi/landing lights were weak and also about 200 feet way in front of the aircraft. ANy Ideas? The only thing new about my FSX install is REX 2.0Gary Trammell

In your rex theme, go to landing lights and use the xeon intense.

same thing happened to me with x-graphics. you need to restore your original spotlight files

As stated, your spotlight.bmp under TEXTURE folder has been changed by one of your add-ons. You have to replace the file in use by the original one (the original spotlight.bmp has 43 Kb)RegardsSchmid

See my post in the REX topic: http://forums1.avsim.net/index.php?s=&...t&p=1615983 Good luck!

Correct, REX uses its own landing lights. Uncheck the option in REX and then use the .bmp in the backup folder.

Ok I have the correct spotlight.bmp BUT the beam is still about 40 yards WAY out front. Like they are in the wrong place.

You can control the landing light placement with key strokes in MSFS, but I've never had to use them. This might be part of it, but it should reset after each flight. Some .cfg got hosed I think in your case.As for weak lights, I'd prefer some landing lights were weaker. The MD-11 is so bright I can't see the lines on the runway with all lights on. Not realistic.

had the same problem with my md 11 with rex2 all i did to resolve the problem was mentioned above go to rex config page and changed the rwy lights to exeon intense but make sure when u do this click the install other wise it want take efferct in rex2 since i was wondering the first time i selected forgot to intall the new themne

Got the same problem with weak lights, but only with the MD-11.Edit: The xeon intense thing worked, and now it's too bright. Ah well, can't have everything I guess ;)

hi guys, i know it's an old topic but i recently installed the md-11 and now also have the excact same problem. i can see the landinglights but they are way in front of the aircraft. I have rex texture direct installed but as far as i know that doenst change the landinglight files, does it?

When a post is over six years old, it's usually best to just start a new one and link back to the old one as necessary...

 

However, after a quick Google search, I found this:

It's REX4, but it definitely discusses a similar issue.
