Ground effects of landing/taxiing lights

Postby JJH » Wed Apr 21, 2010 3:08 pm

I have downloaded several aircraft which have landing lights showing on the aircraft and set out in the aircraft cfg.. When either or both of the landing and taxiing lights are turned on, they shine ok but there is no light effect on the ground. I can't see anything obviously missing in the cfg. when comparing these to those of the default aircraft. Is there by chance a simple solution?

Short answer, no.

The light splash seen on the ground is part of the model and there is no way for us to add that feature.

The listings in the aircraft.cfg are for the glow seen around the source only.

Sorry to not be able to help.

cheers,
Joe

Can you point the way to some of these models?  It would help to know if it's your setup or the models you're choosing.
