Working Slime lights on AS/Vitaria C-17A Globemaster III

Good day all
Sometime ago after I had purchased AlphaSims C-17, someone came out with a updates aircraft.cfg file for the working lights, using shockwaves 3D lights. I do remember that they did get the slime lights to function.

This is the original .cfg file for the lights. (With B.747 VC cockpit)
[lights]
//Types: 1=beacon, 2=strobe, 3=navigation, 4=cockpit, 5=landing
light.0 = 3, -84.50, 0.0, 13.14, fx_navwhih ; Nav tail
light.1 = 3, -18.85, -84.50, 3.07, fx_navredh ; Nav red
light.2 = 3, -18.85, 84.50, 3.07, fx_navgreh ; Nav grn
light.3 = 1, -85.85, 0.0, 46.00, fx_beaconh ; Beacon top
light.4 = 1, 27.41, 0.0, -10.50, fx_beaconh ; Beacon lower
light.5 = 4, 62.71, -2.17, 4.73, fx_vclight ; Cockpit
light.6 = 4, 62.71, 2.17, 4.73, fx_vclight ; Cockpit

This is the updated one using the new 2D cockpit and the Shockwave 3D lighting system.
[lights]
//Types: 1=beacon, 2=strobe, 3=navigation, 4=cockpit, 5=landing, 6=taxi, 7=recognition, 8=wing, 9=logo

light.0 = 3, -18.85, -84.50, 3.07, fx_shockwave_navred ; Nav Red Left
light.1 = 3, -18.85, 84.50, 3.07, fx_shockwave_navgre ; Nav Green Right
light.2 = 1, -85.85, 0.0, 46.00, fx_shockwave_Beaconh ; Beacon top
light.3 = 1, 27.41, 0.0, -10.50, fx_shockwave_Beaconl ; Beacon lower
light.4 = 4, 62.71, 0.00, 4.73, fx_vclight ; Cockpit Lighting
light.5 = 2, -18.93, -84.60, 3.07, fx_shockwave_strobe ; Wingtip Strobe Left FWD
light.6 = 2, -18.93, 84.60, 3.07, fx_shockwave_strobe ; Wingtip Strobe Right FWD
light.7 = 2, -29.35, -84.60, 3.07, fx_shockwave_strobe ; Wingtip Strobe Left AFT
light.8 = 2, -29.35, 84.60, 3.07, fx_shockwave_strobe ; Wingtip Strobe Right AFT
light.9 = 5, 43.10, -10.90, -3.15, fx_shockwave_landing_light_small_xenon ; Landing Light Left Fuselage
light.10 = 5, 43.10, 10.90, -3.15, fx_shockwave_landing_light_small_xenon ; Landing Light Right Fuselage
light.11 = 7, -17.50, -84.50, 3.07, fx_shockwave_landing_light_small_xenon ; Landing Light Left Wing Tip
light.12 = 7, -17.50, 84.50, 3.07, fx_shockwave_landing_light_small_xenon ; Landing Light Right Wing Tip
light.13 = 3, -29.35, -84.60, 3.07, fx_shockwave_navwhi ; Nav Tail White AFT
light.14 = 3, -29.35, 84.60, 3.07, fx_shockwave_navwhi ; Nav Tail White AFT
light.15 = 3, -87.8, -2.5, 28.0, fx_fxlogot
light.16 = 3, -87.8, 2.5, 28.0, fx_fxlogot
light.17 = 6, 22.90, -12.05, -4.80, fx_shockwave_landing_light_small ; Taxi Light Left Fuselage
light.18 = 6, 30.70, 11.70, -4.80, fx_shockwave_landing_light_small ; Taxi Light Right Fuselage

The problem is I cannot remember if the updated file was done at SOH or on the Alphasim forum. I am hoping someone out there has the complete updated (Lights) section of the cfg file. Mine became corrupted when I had a HD melt down. Unfortunately I did not back up the new file as I did for everything else. As it is several lines became corrupted (see below) but have corrected those.

corrupt lines: AS738_BcnU & AS738_BcnL see lines 2 & 3 in correct file above.

light.2 = 1, -85.85, 0.0, 46.00, AS738_BcnU ; Beacon top
light.3 = 1, 27.41, 0.0, -10.50, AS738_BcnL ; Beacon lower

Many thanks
Derek
