I just got a new computer with Windows 7 on it. I notice that on the Airbus 321 and a couple of 3rd party craft when you turn the panel lights on at night, no guages appear. They're fine in the daytime and you can see them, though dimly, at night if you turn the panel lights off. Very strange. Anybody seen this problem? Didn't have a problem on XP.

No problem here! ... other than the default aircraft lighting limitations.

Note, I do not use Dx10 nor Acceleration.

Someone who does aircraft modelling could explain the lighting problems, quirks and limitations.

Are you sure there isn't another set of lights for the gauges? I've noticed in some aircraft (mostly payware however) that there are another set of "gauge" lights. Have you tried just hitting 'l' and turning all of the lights on to see if this is true?

I too am having this problem with a new set of aircraft I have bought. I have found it is because I have the DX 10 preview checked on.

When I uncheck it, the graphics look bad, but the VC and the textures for the plane itself show up.

Waiting on an email from the developer :)
