<< < (2/2)

EHM-1838 Andrew:
That didnt work.
cheers Andy

EHM-1838 Andrew:
But this has.I found some new night lighting textures at POSKY site and now i have night lighting in at least one of my 737/700s without the landing lights having to be switched on.
cheers Andy

EHM-1001 Robert:
Hi Andy,

I am sure the aircraft textures do not control the cabin lights.

The Landing light switch in coopeartion with proper night textures can virtually turn on-off the tail lights, and any night lighting reflection on the fuselage. Textures do not do more.

I think the key is in the panel.cfg. Some panels (just as paywares do) have a different backbround image, and color setting for night lighting. I think that is badly coded or missing from the buggy panel. Maybe you should copy the whole PANEL folder of the working 737 onto the non-working one, and check the result.

It is just wasting time to search the bug around airplane textures ;)

Errr...if you are talking about Virtual Cockpit...then textures does do the trick ! There, a new texture is required when you turn on the panel light. I was always talking about 2D panels before...

EHM-1838 Andrew:
Hello Robert
I have solved the problem (for POSKY 737/700s anyway)and it was updated night lighting textures from POSKY i now do have cabin lights(nice and subtle to)without the landing lights being on,they are linked to the Nav lights which of course is fine.
cheers Andy
