FSX-MS F16 afterburner help needed

[Berlopez 33]

When I first downloaded the ViperDen, installed it and realized I couldn't live with the Glass tranparency issue in VC I deleted it; Then I found a fix, that didn't help, later on I found another that after unzipping the file it gave me the result of a .Bmp file that work !😃 The transparency even improved the look of the panel in VC.

Then I realized the AfterBurner effect was on ALL the time, even at idle and the lights blincked insasibely/Constantly, so I deleted again. Now after reinstalling I am more satisfied. I tried, only copying the Exhaust effect, hoping it was the Afterburner, but nothing shows.

Can anyone advice?

I have split this topic off from the 2003 original.  Is the A/B effect triggered by any of the lights?  What does the [lights] section of the aircraft.cfg look like?

I have a Kirk Olsen F-16.  This is my [lights] section:  If you use L key to turn on all of your lights, it also turns on the A/B!
