I'm specifically looking for a description of the various lights effects files that (AI) aircraft use. For example, there are fx_navred, fx_navredc, fx_navredh, fx_navredm .fx files. What do the c, h, and m stand for. Same for the other default light files, I'm curious.Why do you ask? Well, just downloaded an AI aircraft that came with a Shockwave only light section... Wanna change them to default, but not sure which ones to pick.:(I've already checked the container and effects SDK's.

Hi Mike. Tell me what AI aircraft it is that you need the lights section for and I will help you match it up with the appropriate effects.Regards,Mel

The AI aircraft in question is the CIS Xian MA60. Available here.

Here is what I have for the AN-24 and the AN-32 from CIS: These obviously don't cover the shockwave landing light fx or NickN's Smoke fxAN-24[LIGHTS]//Types: 1=beacon, 2=strobe, 3=navigation, 4=cockpitlight.0=3, -2.50,-47.45, 04.08, fx_navred ,light.1=3, -2.50, 47.45, 04.08, fx_navgre ,light.2=3, -46.18, 00.00, 04.25, fx_navwhi ,light.3=1, -34.30, 00.00, 09.50, fx_beaconb ,light.4=1, -6.96, 00.00, -3.40, fx_beaconh ,AN-32[lights]light.0 = 3, -2.50, -47.54, 4.15, fx_navredlight.1 = 3, -2.50, 47.55, 04.15, fx_navgre ,light.2 = 1, -34.30, 0.0, 09.50, fx_beaconb ,light.3 = 1, -6.96, 0, -3.39, fx_beaconhlight.4 = 3, -46.18, 00.00, 04.25, fx_navwhi ,Hope this helps you out. I have not gotten around to installing the Xian 60 yet, so now I know to look for this, thanks for the heads up.Regards,Mel

It helps a bit, still would like to know what the difference is between all the variations though.Or suppose I could just get the shockwave lights... They have a sale of 25% off this weekend. Of course, that means updating my entire AI fleet...:(
