C172II N & shockwave lights

Featured Replies

hello,I am having fun flying this older cessna but the lights are terrible.So far I have been able to replace all lights by those created by A2A.The only (and most important) lights that I can't seem to replace are the landinglights.Did anyone succeed?Would you please share your solution with me because I sure can't find it on my own.Luc BrusselmansBelgium

Thanks Treetops,I notice in your setup that you just added the lines in the cfg file.It took me a while to come up with that idea. I just kept on looking for one or another entry in the cfg that pointed to the landing lights.I assume now that they are incorporated in the model itself and can't be changed by itself.I can't test it out right now but will ceratinly give it a go tonight.ThanksLuc BrusselmansBelgium

On a lot of aircraft, landing lights are in the model. Simplest way with a lot of payware and some excelent freeware, is look in the shockwave directory for the coordinates. They have a lot of aircraft listed and updated as people add them. Though I've done my share of guess positioning in the past!
