This has really REALLY bugged me for a long time now. I use to be able to see taxi lights on the nose gear of AI aircraft during daytime but I have noticed since updating with newer models (FAIB/TFS etc) that no taxi light on the nose is visible during day. The only time they are visible is sunrise/sunset/night. I tried tweaking the coordinates in the aircraft.cfg and changing the fx file in use but to no avail. Is it possible using Jan Martin's FDEs have changed some global setting? I use to use shockwave lights too and recently installed the update for enable lights during the day but that hasn't made any difference either.
As reference, this is the FAIB A320IAE [lights] settings.
Obviously the landing lights have been commented out as I believe the FAIB has built in lights?
This is the fx_landing.fx
Tried to attach the fx_2.bmp been used from the effects texture directory but doesn't seem to want to (must be banned file extension).
Any ideas? I Just simply want to be able to see a bright light on the nose wheels on all AI models during day for taxi.
As reference, this is the FAIB A320IAE [lights] settings.
