Hawker Heroes Tempest V - lights?

[delta_lima]

Hello gang,

One of favourite mounts is the HH Hawker Tempest. Beautifully modelled. Trouble is apart from landing lights, there aren't any nav lights. Maybe that was accurate in its wartime role (I have the same problem with the RealAir Spitfire, too). There's a nice wingtip mount modelled for them, but nothing there.

The lights section is pretty bare:

[LIGHTS]
//Types: 1=beacon, 2=strobe, 3=navigation, 4=cockpit, 5=landing
light.0 = 4, -1.50, -0.00, 2.00, fx_vclight

So has anyone added lights on this lovely lady? If so, can anyone share their lights section?

If not, how does one find out the exact left/right fore/aft coordinates and add lights in? Suggestions on good light/effects are welcome. I know some planes have some really nice light effects.

thanks!

Hi dl,
See page 2 of this thread, I posted a lights section whilst not entirely accurate will give you a good starting point. http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?19784-Hawker-Heroes&highlight=Hawker+Heroes

This is the lights section for the Tempest...

[LIGHTS]
//Types: 1=beacon, 2=strobe, 3=navigation, 4=cockpit, 5=landing
light.0 = 4, -1.50, -0.00, 2.00, fx_vclight
light.1 = 3, 2.60, -20.20, -1.10, fx_navred
light.2 = 3, 2.60, 20.20, -1.10, fx_navgre
light.3 = 3, -20.25, -0.60, 0.70, fx_navwhi
light.4 = 3, -20.25, 0.60, 0.70, fx_navwhi
