BVAI / FLAI and AI Lights Reborn

[simbol 5,818]

As you are aware the fantastic package of BVAI has been released, however If you are using AI Lights Reborn Free Edition you might encounter a conflict with some of the BVAI models AI lights, this is due to some technical configurations that the developers of BVAI are aware of and I have asked them to address in the future.

In the meantime to avoid any effects conflicts please follow these steps:

1.- Locate your P3D Add-ons folder, for example C:\Users\YourName\Documents\Prepar3D v4 Add-ons

2.- Find the Folder with the name BVAI or FLAI 

3.- Make a backup of your Add-on.xml file

4.- Edit the Add-on.xml using Notepad++

5.- Remove the Effects section:

6.- Save the changes, and relaunch P3D and VPILOT.

All the best,
Simbol

Please note BVAI has been converted into FLAI, the issue described above is still present on their new AddOnXML file as you can see below:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<SimBase.Document Type="AddOnXml" version="4,4" id="add-on">
  <AddOn.Name>FLAI</AddOn.Name>
  <AddOn.Description>FLAI - Next Generation Model Matching</AddOn.Description>
  <AddOn.Component>
    <Category>SimObjects</Category>
    <Path>C:\PD3 Scenary\FLAI\SimObjects\Airplanes</Path>
  </AddOn.Component>
  <AddOn.Component>
    <Category>Effects</Category>
    <Path>C:\PD3 Scenary\FLAI\Effects</Path>
  </AddOn.Component>
  <AddOn.Component>
    <Category>Texture</Category>
    <Path>C:\PD3 Scenary\FLAI\Texture</Path>
  </AddOn.Component>
</SimBase.Document>

Please be sure to remove the Effects entry as otherwise AI Lights FSReborn Freeware edition will not work as expected.

All the best,
Simbol
