Hello, Even with it's faults, I do like this airplane. I'm trying to add some of the A2A Shockwave lights to it.
This is the way the 'original' light .cfg for the airplane looked:
[LIGHTS]
light.0 = 5, 17, -7.5, -4.5, cs727_landing //left
light.1 = 5, 17, 4.5, -6.5, cs727_landing //right
I found this Shockwave light configuration on the A2A website here: http://a2asimulations.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=21388&p=301739#p301739
NOTE: the author has posted that these are " 'FS9' Captain Sim 727-100 ".
I added the Shockwave lines directly below the original lines. Then I '//' those 'original' lines to deactivate them.
So, my new light .cfg looks like this:
[LIGHTS]
//light.0 = 5, 17, -7.5, -4.5, cs727_landing //left
//light.1 = 5, 17, 4.5, -6.5, cs727_landing //right
light.0 = 3, -27.59, -52.90, -2.49, Fx_shockwave_navred
light.1 = 3, -27.59, 52.90, -2.49, Fx_shockwave_navgre
light.2 = 3, -29.00, -53.40, -2.49, Fx_shockwave_navred
light.3 = 3, -29.00, 53.40, -2.49, Fx_shockwave_navgre
light.4 = 2, -33.50, -53.10, -2.50, fx_navwhih
light.5 = 2, -33.50, 53.10, -2.50, fx_navwhih
light.6 = 2, -28.25, -53.15, -2.49, Fx_shockwave_strobe
light.7 = 2, -28.25, 53.15, -2.49, Fx_shockwave_strobe
light.8 = 2, 23.40, 0.00, 7.20, Fx_shockwave_beacon
light.9 = 2, 1.05, 0.00, -7.20, Fx_shockwave_beacon
light.10 = 4, 50.00, -2.50, 0.70, cs727_vclight
light.11 = 4, 48.50, 0.00, 1.00, cs727_vclight
light.12 = 5, 9.50, 6.10, -2.90, Fx_shockwave_landing_light
light.13 = 5, 9.50, -6.10, -2.90, Fx_shockwave_landing_light
light.14 = 9, -20.00, -52.00, -4.50, cs727_voda
light.15 = 9, -20.00, 52.00, -4.50, cs727_voda
light.16 = 6, 43.7, 0.11, -9.5, fx_Shockwave_landing_light // Shockwave light
>>I added these lines into the panel.cfg (changing the gauge #'s to follow after the other gauge #'s)
[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
>>>The lights appear to work fine. But I see 2-lights hanging below the wing on both sides of the aircraft.
They appear to be nav lights.

When I try to reposition them, by changing their coordinates, that seems to put some of the other lights out of wack.
Another issue for me is that I cannot turn-off the landing and taxi lights with the cockpit switches. The only way to turn them off is to use the CNTL+L to get the landing lights to go off and use the L-key to get the taxilight to go off.
Any suggestions will be appreciated...?
