October 10, 201312 yr Commercial Member No you add it to your aircraft not the AI aircraft. Currently assuming you have effects enabled the AI lights should be working but visibility is < 0.5nm (that is assuming that they are effect style lights and not embedded) Disabling effects will make the AI lights work at distance but you lose the nav lights on your plane. If AI lights matter to you the best solution is to give up on your aircraft nav lights or convert the aircraft nav lights the old way with ballast lights. My FSX Analysis Blog
October 10, 201312 yr Hi steve Are you referring to disabling light effects in the dx10 fixer or a change in the aircraft config file Thanks Wayne Hi steve Are you referring to disabling light effects in the dx10 fixer or a change in the aircraft config file Thanks Wayne Sounds like nothing can be done to fix this through the next dx10 fixer application update, is that correct that its something you cant directly fix, thanks Wayne such Asus Hero Z690, Gigabyte Aorus Master 5080, I914900K, Kraken 360 AIO CPU Cooled, 96 GIGS Corsair DDR5, 32 Inch 4K by 3
October 12, 201312 yr I think it's worth pointing out here that the instructions for adding a ballast light are slightly misleading. The manual makes it look like you only have to point it at the AIRPLANES folder, but in fact it needs to be pointed to the specific aircraft folder within the AIRPLANES folder for it to add the ballast light statement to the config file. That may sound obvious, but I assumed that the utility automatically added the ballast light statement to ALL of the aircraft in the folder. I will check again to see if it has worked this time.

October 12, 201312 yr Well, it doesn't seem to have worked with the PMDG 737NGX...... Christopher Low AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU / 64GB DDR5-6000 RAM / 12GB Nvidia RTX 4070 Super GPU / Gigabyte X870E Aorus Elite Wifi 7 / 1+2TB Samsung Evo Plus M2 Nvme UK2000 Beta Tester
October 12, 201312 yr Commercial Member Sorry Christopher we are at cross purposes here I was talking to someone else about adding a ballast to stop his ai blinking. You don't have that issue do you? Your problem is the ai range visibility. The solution there is to merge the basic nav lights with ballasts, and disable their conversion. I said I would create instructions or create a package next week. My FSX Analysis Blog
October 13, 201312 yr That's OK, Steve. If you are in the process of sorting it out, then I will leave you to it! Christopher Low AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU / 64GB DDR5-6000 RAM / 12GB Nvidia RTX 4070 Super GPU / Gigabyte X870E Aorus Elite Wifi 7 / 1+2TB Samsung Evo Plus M2 Nvme UK2000 Beta Tester
