Rotating Beacon Light help

Featured Replies

Hello everyone.... I need help getting a rotating beacon light working on top of a Control tower I moved. I've tried all the xml code examples posted in this forum but have had no luck. I can get the default beacon light which is attached to the red/white tower working, but I want just the beacon light effect on top of the control tower. Any ideas?It looks like Dick created a XML file to do this "http://webpages.charter.net/ludowr/RhumbaBeacon.zip , but I can't seem to find this file anywhere... Could some post a like to this file or would someone be kind enough to share it with me? Thanks in advance...

Anyone? If not, how do I create a light beacon with no tower attached to it?Thanks

The XML code will something look like this. Insert the correct lat/lon and alt values for your application and compile with BGLComp from the FS2004SDK.
