    Lights

    Has anyone been able to determine if Schockwave lights will work in P3D?

    VCN-1, I installed with no effect. For me they did not work. I have Shockwave Lights installed on just about every aircraft. All those I have tested do not work. Hopefully down the road. If anyone gets them working, please let us know.

    That was my experience also. I thought maybe I had done something wrong during installation.

    What files did you copy and paste?
    I certainly have had no luck.


    EDIT: I just copied and pasted all the relative fx files from FSX to P3D.

    It worked! Don't know why the direct install didn't.

    Dangerous Beans, that did it. This is what I was missing. Once the textures were in all looks great. Thanks a million.
