DPetitme, YOU'RE A LIFESAVER! Thank you for your excellent commentary. The FSPXAI author's 777 NoLight instructions are incorrect. You correctly noted that it's the L2 file that gets renamed. I did that and now I have 777 logo and cabin lights at the gate. Now, I've tried this same fix for the FSP A380 and it doesn't work. If you or anyone else has any ideas on that, I'm all ears. Thanks again. This is a great forum! Steve

Dale_YVR, Thanks. Yes, I tried that approach and still can't figure out how to get those darn lights to stay on at night. Simbol, I have reached out to the author. Hope to hear back from him. If anyone else has been able to get the logo lights (Always On) to work on the FSPXAI 777 series, I'm all ears!

I really would like to use the FSPXAI model because it's superior, in my opinion, to the TFS model. The instructions came with the paid model. Having the logo light always on should be possible. If you don't want to make your repaint as sleep(cold and dark) state at night - in other words, you want to keep cabin windows and logo light illumination truning on through the night, you can generate this(Always ON) state by duplicate "FSPXAI_(Model name)_L.dds" and rename the duplicated file to "FSPXAI_NoLight_(Model name).dds " in your repaint folder. In order to generate Always ON state by duplicate of "FSPXAI_(Model name)_L.dds", original "FSPXAI_(Model name)_L.dds" MUST have logo light illumination. Though a bit complicated, I believe that I have followed these instructions perfectly. Again, if anyone else has been able to make the logo lights stay on at the gates for the FSPXAI 777, I'd love to know how!

I can usually figure out the tweaks necessary to make my sim work well, but getting logo lights to stay ALWAYS ON for the FSPXAI 777 models is driving me crazy. I've read and read the instructions a hundred times and have tried to follow them to the letter. But no matter what I try, I can't get the logo lights to stay on at night (while aircraft sitting at gate). Any guidance would be AWESOME! Thanks, SGFIntl

When I land at night, most of the AI aircraft are all dark. Would be nice if the logo light, cabin lights and wingtip lights remained illuminated. (At least the wingtip lights). Any way to force this with AI aircraft? SGFry KDSM

I probably missed this somewhere in all the discussion but will PMDG be offering these new aircraft in FSX only or will those of us still flying FS9 be gleeful as well?

Just reinstalled all of (or at least most of) my FS9 set up onto new machine. My Active Camera is working great EXCEPT for panning in virtual cockpit. When I press down on center scroll ball and move around it's very jerky. When I stop, it's fine. It's just the movement itself that is making my screen jigger.I think this happened way back and there was an easy fix. Any thoughts?Many thanks and Merry Christmas!SteveKDSM

Is there a way to reverse the RR on the PMDG 744 engine cowlings?

Just got a new machine and have reinstalled FS9 (I still like it better) and tons of upgrades. What a job that is...Anyway, since Windows 7 doesn't allow spanning of 2 monitors like XP did, I bought a TripleHead2Go adapter and have it kind of working. The problem is that in the Virtual Cockpit of my PMDG 744 aircraft, the gauges are all black.Any ideas???Thanks all!steveNew machine specs:INTEL I7-2600K, overclocked 20% | Windows 7 | NVIDIA GTX 580 3GB GDDR5 PCI-E
