I know that if a part has a material assigned to it, like a spec map, and it isn't present within the texture folder, the lighting gets placed on the part opposite to what it should be - for example making the bottom light, and the top dark, during mid-day. This could be what is happening with that section of the engine.
I also noticed that it looks like the cockpit light is on as well in the shot - it could be that it is bleeding out, and affecting that section of the engine.

@Bruce..... are you running Windows 7 by any chance ????
Congrats Francois and team for the release of the Lysander!
My apologies. I didnt see this thread until just now. Great to see it finally out. The bird looks gorgeous! Job well done!
The ribbing work on the back top of the fuselage is just awesome.

Thanks Bill !
Pity. We seem to have a problem with Windows 7 and I was kinda hoping this would fall into that category as well. Have e-mailed the developer and am waiting to chat with him.
Francois, I'm running Windows 7, 32 bit ultimate if I can help. I hadn't noticed the prop spinner texture issue, but I'm not really all that picky about things like that, most of the time.
I think I have gotten the black screen on exit a couple times and had to go to the Task Manager to stop the FSX process.

Hi Guys
that reversed lighting is usually a bump map not formatted correctly
I don't have the model so can't check from here
Regards
Rick
Chuck will have a look at the mapping. Meanwhile there's a problem with the panel lighting under Windows 7 as well. Problem is, my developer does not have Windows 7, so that makes finding the problem extremely difficult.
Haven't seen black screens, Glenn, but then again, I run the 64-bit version of everything except XP. Maybe that's the reason for that part.
We'll need some R&R first though, and I'll be on the road the next two days. Follow-up after New Year.
So, Happy New Year already !

I'll try and finish/ upload my last two repaints tomorrow..
You can find most of my repaints for FSX/P3D in the library here on the outhouse.

Hello one and all , hope your holiday was pleasant .
Thanks for the suggestions about the shadows being reversed , in this case the original model had " toolbar " mirror modifiers used all over and were a source trouble in a number of locations , the majority of them Jan Kees and i managed to sort out and the prop hub seems to have slipped through the cracks unfortunately.
The panel lighting issue under W7 is what i could use some reports about, a brief summation of what is seen or not , if they work when the L key is used and if they are seen in the exterior only , being that its all default code and .cfg effects there is nothing that stands out as a cause so i could use a few clues .
Many thanks , C Jodry for FSAddon
Probably should post this on the FSAddon forums, but I digress. I have a panel lighting issue (hope this is the same one others are getting?). Basically, the panel lights don't work. Francois helped me to make sure I was doing it correctly, but I have spent quite a bit of time trying to get it to work. On that note however, I am not using W7, but rather Vista 64 at this point.

Vista Ultimate 64 with latest updates
... and that should about do it.
Last, thanks Francois for the present! I really like this bird
Latest news on the panel lights: Chuck found that three effect files have gone missing in the initial install, or rather got stuck in the wrong folder. This MIGHT be the issue! I can't test it because I have packed my PC's ready for the trip to France tomorrow o'dark early.
If you want to try, please do!
Look in the SimObjects/Aircraft/Lysander-SO/Effects folder.
Copy the three effects files found there AND the texture files to the main FSX/Effects folder.
Test it.
????????????
Most illuminating.
Yes - copying/moving the contents of the Effects folder (including the texture folder, not just the .fx files) from the aircraft directory to the FSX/Effects folder solved the issue.
Thanks gents!
Found it first day...I like to have a rummage through the folders of new aircraft...to see what I've got

Yes. I must have missed it with testing because I installed so many different versions before already. So basically the files were in two places on all of my test PC's. Urghs....
I just uploaded these two:
Happy flying!
