theo__h 19 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Hi, I have an issue with lights on the A333. Even if the switches are on the ON pos, I can't see any lights from my exterior model. (see photos) Haven't found any key on the doc (maybe I missed something, if yes sorry). Thanks in advance for your help ! Theo Please login to display this image. Please login to display this image.

Deputy Sheriffs Secondator 643 Posted December 12, 2019 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted December 12, 2019 Do you have any battery power to the aircraft? Could also be that your light effect files have been replaced by some other software which alters the sims default files for whatever reason..

Maybe a software but wich one ? I don't have any soft that changes lights... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs Secondator 643 Posted December 12, 2019 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted December 12, 2019 Have you tried reinstalling the aircraft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theo__h 19 Posted December 12, 2019 Author Share Posted December 12, 2019 Just tried, got this issue. Maybe it is linked ? "Installation failed because newer versio is already installed" Please login to display this image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs Secondator 643 Posted December 12, 2019 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted December 12, 2019 You could try to uninsatll the Redistributable C++ 2015 and then run the installer so that it installs the one in the installer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4161 Posted December 12, 2019 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted December 12, 2019 Theo, when you look from different angles to the lights, do you see them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes nothing from all angles. I have the light reflection on the fuselage and on the ground but it seems that light source isn't shown 13 minutes ago, Secondator said: You could try to uninsatll the Redistributable C++ 2015 and then run the installer so that it installs the one in the installer. Isn't fine having a newer version of what the installer proposes ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have any soft that changes lights... There are several tweaking tools (e.g. for shaders) that change default sim files, causing such issues. Which exact version of P3Dv4 are you using. Please post the version number of the prepar3d.exe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theo__h 19 Posted December 12, 2019 Author Share Posted December 12, 2019 I'm using 4.5.13.32097. I haven't myself changed any Shaders7/installed mod or anything. The only "tweak" (wich isn't really one) is Envtex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theo__h 19 Posted December 12, 2019 Author Share Posted December 12, 2019 The only thing that changes light is FSL Spotlight, but if I turn it off, it is still not working Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4161 Posted December 12, 2019 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted December 12, 2019 Ok, so finally there is at least one tool that could be the problem. For good reason I do not trust anything that comes from FSL. For sure it changes default files and maybe it even want make a backup of the original ones. Uninstall it and maybe you need to do a reinstall of P3D to get rid of this sh... I can proof that lights work, with no tweaks of whatever kind: Please login to display this image.

theo__h 19 Posted December 12, 2019 Author Share Posted December 12, 2019 It may be the issue but if I watch at streamers that fly both addons : their lights seems to appear normaly so I don't know if it is worth to reinstall my entire P3D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs Secondator 643 Posted December 13, 2019 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted December 13, 2019 You could try first just reinstalling the client and see if that helps. That's not as much work as full P3D install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
