I assumed I should start asking this question on the P3D forum, but have not had any luck w/ any sort of response.  I have always found this group to be knowledgeable and helpful.

 

When I fly at night in P3D V.4 I am unable to see the ALS strobe landing light system at any airport (addon or existing). I have been reading up on the subject and see that the latest Nvidia driver causes some issues so I have reverted back to a previous driver (344.75), but still have the issue. I can see the PITA landing lights, but the ALS system is not visible….any help would be appreciated.

Chuck,

 

"When I fly at night in P3D V.4 I am unable to see the ALS strobe landing light system at any airport (addon or existing)."

 

Which Addon scenery/airports do you have?

 

Which version of Windows?

 

Is your version of P3D V2 or V2.4?

 

Which default P3D 4/x airport approach lighting does not work for you?

 

"I can see the PITA landing lights"

Or PAPI lights?

 

"I assumed I should start asking this question on the P3D forum, but have not had any luck w/ any sort of response."

On this topic or other topics ?

Do you have just this problem or several?

 

With Nvidia 344.75 / P3D 2.4

Thank you for taking time on this - sorry for the delay...work keeps getting in the way of my hobby!!

 

Here are specs of my system/software (I should have done this upfront):

 

Hardware: Intel Core i7 4770KQuad Core, 4.4GHz Overclock, 16GB Trident x DDR3 SDRAM 2133 MHz, Nvidia Geforce GTX 770 - 2GB, Asus Z87 Maximus VI Hero Mother Board, 2x's 2TB Seagate 7200 RPM SATA, 3x's Asus Monitors, Winodws 7, Joystick/Yoke - Jetmax, Rudder Pedals - Saitek, Flight Deck Solutions CDU.

 

Software: P3D V2.4

FS Global 2010

REX Texture Direct

Active Sky Next - P3D

Addons - Orix/FlyTampa/Flight Beam/FSDT

 

Right now the only problem I have is this lighting issue - but I have just recently moved to P3D so I don't have a lot of time in the software.  I should have some more time tonight and I will try and post some images, but right now I am unable to see the ALS strobe landing lights at any airport (addon or not) that I have checked.

 

More to come - thanks.

Which version of Windows?

 

 

 

Which default P3D 4.2 airport approach lighting does not work for you?

 

"I can see the PITA landing lights"

Or PAPI lights?

 

Do you suspect any of your scenery addons ... or have you checked with their support?

Has this been resolved? I have the same issue, no approach lighting system including PAPI lights.

 

I have Orbx PNW and fly into Cyvr

Newer NVidia drivers broke the lights. ast one that worked was 347.88

Yup you're right, rolled back to the 347.88 driver, seems to work again.

 

thanks
