July 5, 20187 yr If a fix does not come soon, it would at least good to know what exactly is this light-sensor for and if we can safely disable it.

July 5, 20187 yr I think someone said above. You can just undock the window before enabling VR --> box disappears. I haven't noticed any negative consequences of this.

I understand, but I am still curious what this sensor is, considering that it seems that there is no functionality loss when it is disabled. 🙂 PC1: AMD Ryzen 9800X3D | Zotac RTX 5090 SOLID | Asus TUF X670E-Plus | G.SKILL 64GB DDR5 PC 6000 CL30 | 4TB NVMe | Noctua NH-D15 | Asus TUF 1000W Gold | be quiet!

July 5, 20187 yr It senses the light of the sim? :! there are tons of topics on avsim about it... one: ,

If you use the left mouse click with any of the shift, control or shift + control combinations it’s easy to move or resize the white window to nothing. If you change views it comes back but again very easy to move it or resize it to nothing. i know the config mod works but for now a little patience for PMDG to fix this and anything else they have uncovered is reasonable with a very easy work around for now.

July 29, 20187 yr Now that it was just announced (7/27/18) that the Operations Center will be pushing updates to the PMDG 737NGX and PMDG 777, will there be a fix for the Light Sensor that is causing a "white box" to appear when in VR?

August 4, 20187 yr PMDG, Any fix since this was posted more than a month ago? Should we regress to the previous version of v4?

Failure to include a signature will result in removal of the post without comment. We strongly encourage users to set up a signature block in their AVSim user account, then you never have to worry to remember in the future! For what aircraft? This has been fixed for the 744. For the rest of the planes a manual fix is needed Chris Makris PLEASE NOTE PMDG HAS DEPARTED AVSIM You can find us at http://forum.pmdg.com
December 4, 20187 yr It's on the 777-200LR (and 777-300ER as well I think) and it doesn't have a "Light Sensor" entry in the aircraft config file on either models. Eldon Murray Edited December 4, 20187 yr by Eldon Eldon Murray

Eldon Murray Not having a light sensor is not possible. Open a support ticket from the support portal (support.precisionmanuals.com) and will look at it.

Eldon Murray it's in the 777 panel.cfg window18=Light Sensor the aircraft.cfg doesn't handle the cockpit panels, just the views. ,
December 6, 20187 yr Thanks Marc that's where I was going wrong. Found it in panel.cfg and working fine now. Thanks guys. Eldon Eldon Murray
