[Answered] FLAi A330 not showing Nav or Strobes

[Wise87 1,286]

I just loaded up at LSZH and watched a Swiss Air A330 take off. It showed the taxi and landing lights and logo light but I did not see the nav, beacon or strobe. Its a TFS model in FLAi. The Utility shows everything is OK with that aircraft? Am I missing something? I see the FSReborn Lights CTRL in the CFG.

Hi Dan,

Make sure the [General] section looks like this:

[General]
atc_type=AIRBUS
atc_model=A330
editable=0
performance=
category=airplane

Some devs forget about this section and the first two and last lines are critical for both P3D and AILRP. AILRP will tell you if there are missing\incorrect category lines when you scan so if you didn't get a warning it's probably ok.

The two most common errors we see are incorrect atc_type and missing category line. For the type line there are some aircraft made by, for example, Bombardier that are identified as Canadair. Some of the Challengers from AIG, the AIM CRJ-200 and the new A220 come to mind as having Canadair instead of Bombardier. AILRP lights won't show if it says Canadair. For those you have to change them to Bombardier and you'll be fine.

HTH!

Change it to A330 and I believe it will work. I checked all my 330's (3 332's and 3 333's) and all have A330 for model.

The best thing to confirm the model is working as intended is to launch the preview module in expert mode, find the AI model in question in the list located on the right and select it.

Now click preview or move one of the controls, AILRP will inject that particular AI model in various stages of the flight with their corresponding lights enabled for each. If you see all working the model has all the lights configured correctly if not then you can start to troubleshoot.
