Are these external lights "normal"?

You show a beacon rotating effect on the fuel tanks and horizontal stabilizer.  I do not see that.  There’s nothing in my sim that shows the beacon is rotating or anything otherwise to suggest it isn’t just another red navigation-like light.

 

Your lights are also far smaller and much more believable than the giant orbs on my aircraft.

If you look up a ways, I posted the effects I had created before Mark altered them to look bigger. Here's the quote again...

The Beacon is not supposed to flash.
It is an old school rotating beacon. The effect is attached to the rotating parts of the fixture. The Dynamic light spill as well, so you can see the beacons rotating as they hit the tip tanks in P3D v4.

On the note of them being over-exaggerated, Mark increased the size of them because some people complained, I personally made them a LOT smaller.

Here's a link to what I believe are my original files, as I don't currently have the L35 installed since my new PC.

I really don't know how to help you with the issue, are you using P3D v4+?
This only works on v4.

New effect files will probably not fix your issue. Though it will make them smaller.

There must be something wrong with either your P3D installation, or the installation on the Lear. Make sure you are installing the P3D v4.4+ version.
Afraid I can't help you any further, as i've never experienced this issue. Good luck.

Do you have client and content for 4.5HF2 installed? If not,  also update content. That often causes issues.

Those effects exactly fixed my issue.  The lights/effects are much more reasonably sized and the beacon truly looks like it is rotating instead of steadily on.  Thank you.

Do you have a Carenado aircraft installed or do you use ini-build dynamic light mods?
