ScatterbrainKid Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 I don't know the answer off the top of my head but your best bet is to take a shower, comb your hair, brush your teeth and go ask in the FSX forum where the FSX gurus, prophets and mystics hang. Meanwhile you might be able to pick up some clues from these threads that have appeared there, they're like holy writ- https://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthread.php?292690-Switching-on-AI-Plane-s-Lights&highlight=lights https://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthread.php?248532-Taxi-lights-in-spot-view&highlight=illumination https://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthread.php?292529-Taxi-Lights https://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthread.php?292564-Default-FSX-aircraft-lights-not-working&highlight=lights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n4gix Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 The honest and short answer to your question is no, there is nothing that you as an end user can do. Full stop. The default landing/taxi lights are compiled into the core of the simulator, and cannot be affected directly. In addition, they must be implemented correctly in the compiled model (.mdl) file by the developer. Custom landing/taxi lights (such as in your second screenshot) are likewise compiled into the model (.mdl) file by the developer, and whatever custom graphic files are also supplied by the developer.

Welp, that sucks. I was hoping I could edit some textures or something and it'd be fixed. Anyways, thanks for clearing that up. -Vick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
