To get your illuminated cockpit adjusted properly, add these lines to the CFG files of your TR_AD-2, TR_AD-6 and TR_A-1H aircraft and save the file:

[LIGHTS]
panel= 0.00, 0.95, 0.50, fx_vclight
//Lateral (m), vertical (m), longitudinal (m)

This will place the vclight effect properly behind your instrument panel.   Smiley

There will be a tweak pack download available tomorrow that contains the complete CFG files for each Skyraider and the fx_vclight.fx file for those who do not have it.   Undecided

If the illumination is not to your liking, you can easily adjust the position of the light source by changing the numbers in the CFG entry...the key is in the entry itself and the reference point is the center of the model (normally somewhere near the center of the wing/center of the fuselage juncture).  Smiley

In fact, Nole has suggested that these settings work much better than those I originally posted....AND I would have to agree that the illumination is much better,  Further experimentation can lead to personalized settings most comfortable to each pilot....too dim, you can't read the panel; too bright, you ruin night vision.   Wink

panel= 0.00, 1.20, 0.30, fx_vclight
