donsalvi, welcome to SimV..
I doubt it is an Afcad problem or an FS settings problem.
The lights placed by Afcad, like the default airport lights, rely on the 'halo.bmp' in the main 'Texture' folder. If that file is missing or altered, lights would not show correctly. Does lighting at other airports show correctly? Do you have any other add-ons installed that altered airport lighting? (Thinking specifically of Golden Wings 3 which removes all airport lighting)
I don't have UT so don't know if it might have removed or altered the file for it's own night lighting, or any UT setting that might be connected.
The default 'halo.bmp' is 87KB, 5/5/2003, FS Disc 2\MSGAME3.cab.
