• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    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 politician 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 among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

I tried this program some time ago when using FSX but never really used it. Discovered that is now free to the sim community and it has a P3DV5 version that works fine. They are working on an in sim GUI but the capacity to add and rework VC lighting does live up to its promise. For some of the older conversions into V5 this is transformative and gets around a lot of sticky issues with lighting and effects very well.

It self installs as an xml addon and I have had no problems with it. Lets you be as creative as you wish!

Anyway a sample of the KBT Electra Cockpit redone with panel storm lighting etc. Pretty impressive outcome!

They work and you can have a number of variations.
I like subtle lighting, even in daylight it makes a difference, and for night flying they need to set low enough to not glare.
