Simbol

AS per my previous note, I love the way the lights scale with distance. I now have various groups set up in expert mode with different configs tested in preview mode and the config set to 4K for my screen.

 

However, changing the size of the strobe effects in expert mode (including the dynamic light size) does not appear to have any discernible effect on the size of the strobe lights either in the sim or in the preview module.

 

Any ideas why or things I should try.

Also, I have been going through all my ai aircraft, modifying the aircraft.cfg and/or model.cfg to make them P3DDv4 SDK compliant to get landing lights showing properly, and have been successful with various aircraft in achieving this. There are a couple which I am still failing on. Can I send you the .cfg files on these by email?

 

Best regards

Hi Rob,

I know this works because I was just fiddling with it yesterday while testing FSPAIX models.

When you are on the preview mode, are you selecting an AI model that doesn't have a warning on the right side list? models with warnings means they have the effects attached via the model and your changes will not be represented immediately in the sim due to P3D effects caching techniques and therefore it requires a P3D reset / restart.

For this reason It is advisable to use an AI model without warnings to see how they look, then click apply and restart P3D.

With which models are you having trouble with the landing lights, Rob?
