I totally forgot about adding shockwave lights to my AI models, that Herc shot actually makes it look like the lights are working.

The thing with the shockwave lights is that you can only really use them on models like the C-130 that have non landing gear mounted landing lights. Otherwise the landing light effects stay on when the gear is retracted.

You can use some of the effects and make them a taxi light only which works as well.

Would it be possible to make a panel.cfg file, and add the following?

[VCockpit01]
gaugeXX=shockwave_lights!SW Lights, 1,1,1,1 //shockwave light
gaugeXX=shockwave_lights!SW Lights_taxi_gear, 1,1,1,1 //shockwave light
gaugeXX=shockwave_lights!SW Lights_gear, 1,1,1,1 //shockwave light

Since AI aircraft don't use a panel, I'm not sure. However I wonder if it would work if you went ahead and added a panel folder to your ai aircraft. Something to try I guess.
