What post are you replying to? A bit of "context" would help.

There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politicion will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment amoung members. It is a poison to the community. We apprciate compliance with the rules.

OK, I had a little time today to investigate the KBT L-188
starter issues.
There is a disconnect between the VC starter switch and
engine select and the 2D upper panel starter switch and the engine select.
My starter code resides in the 2D upper panel. That is the
only starter code I have "access" to and could revise so that
it worked in FSX.
The code revision affects only one XML file:
L188_Starter.xml
This file is located in the folder "PS_L188"
Unzip the attached file and replace the existing "L188_Starter.xml".
To start the KBT engines you must open the upper 2D panel.
Locate the 5-position "START" engine select switch.
Use this switch to select the engine you wish to start.
NOTE:
The switch on the VC upper panel does not function!!
Also on the 2D upper panel, press the green button to
the right of the "START" engine selector.
The engine "starter engaged" light for the selected engine
should illuminate in the lamp panel between the "START"
selector and the green button.
The lamp will go out once the engine spools up above
8300 RPM.
The green button should also pop out at that point.
Repeat the procedure for the other engines.
DO NOT use the green "Starter Switch" on the VC upper
panel. This may interfere with the starter logic and, in
any case, will only start engine #1.
The XML code is 'quick and dirty' as I've very limited time
to spend on this right now.

There is a update @Flightsim.com: http://www.flightsim.com/file.php?cm=SEARCH1&fsec=0&fname=L188_UPDATE_AND_FIX2.ZIP
Many thanks to the [SIZE=-1]FS KBT Team and Paul Strogen
Has anyone added the CIVA INS to the VC?
EDIT: Are the Nav lights coupled with the Landing lights?
Regarding the smoke: the "fx_smoke_rx" which is used in the aircraft.cfg is missing (at least on my system), so you have to use a different effect file. For instance "fx_smoke_f6".

On the IFR panel the switch that's labeled as GPS/NAV is actually the autopilot on/off switch. Just go into the panel.cfg Window03 and change it from the PS_L188!AP_Switch to the PS_L188!Navgps_Switch. Regards, Bob.
