Lighting updates for default aircraft

Recommended Posts

Alrighty, thanks for the feedback everyone, please keep it coming.

Changed my mod structure - the download is still one file, but it contains each aircraft in its own folder.You can now easily modify or delete a single aircraft lighting mod without breaking the entire package. Also - added the X Cub, DR400, and Cap 10 (which turned out a lot more fun to fly than I expected!).
I have a couple more planes to go, then I'll start looking at cockpit lighting and integrating some of the relevant mods already available. Also noodling on making landing lights reflect in clouds without it looking like pea soup outside of clouds. Would be nice to have that effect.

You are the boss, man 😎 if you'll change your mind about longitude, just give me a call 😉

Does this conflict with the G36 mod?

 They already have my lighting updates. Easiest way - extract all my Uwa light mod folders into your community folder, then delete my "Uwa light mod - G36 Bonanza" folder". You'll get all the other planes and the G36 mod without problems.

Glad you it like!! 🙂

Btw, if you are feeling adventurous, I have actually included 3 different strobe light options, they're in the texture folder for each plane (e.g. ..\Community\Uwa light mod - XCub\Effects\texture) The default for all my planes is FX_ulm03.PNG - but you can into any strobe.fx file  and replace all instances of "FX_ulm03.PNG" with either "FX_ulm01.PNG" or "FX_ulm02.PNG" - you just need to change the number really, nothing else. Sizing might be a tad off, but not by much. Give it a shot and see which you prefer. Oh.. and don't use 04, that's just a dupe of the default round halo.

Uwajimaya,

Is your TBM cabin/glareshield lighting mod working with the Japan 1.9.3.0 update?

I have not made any changes to the cabin/glareshield, I'm only editing the external lights at this time (which are working). Are you seeing something weird? Or not seeing something you should?

Any chance on getting the Baron done?  Great job so far.

Your panel lights are not working in the TBM.  I don't have any other mods loaded and the panel is dark like before your mod.

If I may quote the FAQ from my site 🙂

Q: Can you create mods for any of the Premium/Deluxe edition aircraft?
A: Unfortunately not. The DA40-TDI, DV20, Baron G58, C152 Aerobat, C172 Classic, Boeing 787, Cirrus 22, Virus SW 121, Citation Longitude and Shock Ultra all have hidden & encrypted files. We have to wait and see if/when Asobo makes those files available.

Ok, I apologize, but I'm not 100% sure I understand. Are the panel lights working in the default TBM but not with mod? Or not working with either?

You just answered my question I posted in another thread. I totally forgot about this...  Thanks.

They never worked in the default TBM.

Got it, thank you. So while a sucky experience, it's the "correct" experience for now. As I said, I have not done anything with the interior lighting - but will take a look once I have updated exterior lights for all planes.
