Shockwave Lights: Coordinates for MAIW models
Posted: 06 Nov 2008, 18:23
Here are the lines to add to your Aircraft.cfg [Lights] section for those users who have purchased the Shockwave Light effects, now produced by A2A Simulations and would like to utilize those effects on MAIW models.
AI models do not use traditional landing and taxi lighting effects like a user aircraft does. Instead they use a flat, triangular shaped polygon that is simply colored to look like a landing or taxi light beam at night.
Therefore adding these lines to your light section will not give you a true landing or taxi light. Instead, by defining the light effects as "taxi" type lights in the [Lights] section, the effect will show up while the aircraft is taxiing only. Once the AI reach the runway and are cleared for takeoff, the effect will disappear. If it is not defined as a "taxi" type light, it would remain on at all times on an AI aircraft since there is no way to turn it off.
This list will be under construction until further notice: If you have coordinates for other MAIW models, please feel free to post them here.
Simply add the lines of code into your Aircraft.cfg [Lights] section, changing the "xx" part to the next numerical number in the sequence.
