March 4, 20188 yr Ever since P3D 4.2 and the 747 hotfix, I have noticed that there are no longer light relections on the aircraft at night for example: -strobe light reflection on outer engine pylon, winglets and tail cone -glow of nav lights on outer part of wing and winglets However, these things appear fine on my NGX and 777. Is it just me or can someone confirm this? Is it worth re-installing the 747 Flying Tigers Group
April 13, 20188 yr Got the same issue and tried reinstalling the 747 and repaints with no luck. Best regards Peter Lund
April 13, 20188 yr Reinstallation is almost never the solution of any problem and should only done if developers tell you. It won‘t solve anything most times. DL is activated in your options? have you tweaked your .cfg in any way? Do you use aftermarket shaders like PTA? Edited April 13, 20188 yr by Ephedrin ,
April 13, 20188 yr Commercial Member Guys, Please remember the proper way to ask support for such thinks is the ticket portal to be sure that it will be looked after. We have missed the initial post but I checked here and confirmed that this is indeed true and have notified the development team to check.

April 13, 20188 yr Commercial Member Guys, I checked with the development team and the current behavior is the correct behavior on the 744 for these lights, confirmed with the real aircraft as well. Chris Makris PLEASE NOTE PMDG HAS DEPARTED AVSIM You can find us at http://forum.pmdg.com

I decided not to re-install and went on to fly many lovely flights. Sadly two weeks ago a windows update failed and I had to reinstall EVERYTHING haha. I can confirm the light stuff still happens but I now know its how its supposed to be. P.S: if the HDMI cable disconnected (it was accidentally pulled out of the port) during the installation of the 747 Ops centre update, Would that have harmed the installation or it doesn't matter either way?

Asking for a friend I'm not really sure what the HDMI cable has to do with installing the plane. If you had ripped out the hard drive or maybe the power supply, I guess that would be a different situation altogether.

For example the new tech from the 747v3 such as the dim and bright dome lighting, groun fiction and so were passed onto the 777 after the queen of the sky was released Flying Tigers Group
