P3D MV F-4 interior lighting

[Brian Riggs 16]

I just purchased the F-4 yesterday and have spent hours trying to figure out why I have no interior cockpit lighting.  I've tried all the interior lighting knobs both front and back and nothing works. 

 

I'm using the latest F-4 SP1 version, P3D w/HF4, NVidia 353.62 drivers.

 

Still waiting on access to the Milviz forum so thought I would post here.  Can someone help me troubleshoot this?

The most common "errors" are:

 

1) not turning off anti-##### while downloading and installing.

 

2) not disabling UAC

 

3) not running P3D/FSX in admin mode.

 

4) disabling anti-##### checking on the FSX directory and all subdirectories.

 

5) not having the most up to date hotfixes for P3D.

1) not turning off anti-##### while downloading and installing. 

 

-No anti-virus software installed

 

2) not disabling UAC

 

- UAC is disabled

 

3) not running P3D/FSX in admin mode.

 

- Will try this...

 

4) disabling anti-##### checking on the FSX directory and all subdirectories.

 

- No anti-virus software installed

 

5) not having the most up to date hotfixes for P3D. 

 

-I have the latest P3D 2.5 hotfix installed.

Hi Hamilton,

If I remember correctly, I couldn't get  F-4 lighting to work due to Estonia Migration Tool running in background.  I disabled it by editing the dll.xml file.

Yah.. that MUST be disabled.
