Today, I changed the Lighting in a Cockpit for the 1st time, I'd never done it before, I got a "C-46A Commando" propliner off from here, but the lights inside the cockpit were so Bright, you'd think the Sun was setting in your lap. So, luckily, I had another Aircraft, the Uiver DC-2 and the lighting inside that cockpit is perfect O',, so I went into the CFG files and copied the VC Lighting command lines and swapped them out, but only for the VC and nothing else. I deleted these lines : light.7 = 4,   18,      -1.0,       2.731,  fx_vclighth ,
light.8 = 4,    7.985,   0.0,      2.431,  fx_vclighth ,
light.9 = 4,    1.102,   0.0,      2.431,  fx_vclighth ,
light.10 = 4,   -5.932,   0.0,     2.431,  fx_vclighth ,
light.11 = 4,  -12.869,   0.0,      2.431,  fx_vclighth ,
and swapped them with another aircraft more desirable, just had to make sure that the "h" was behind the vclight,, because thats the way the original file line was used, so, I didn't want to stray and find out the hard way,, now the lights inside the commondo are more reasonable and I don't feel like i'm going to get sunburned ! I'll try to provide photos of before and after, so you can see the difference.  Jet. Lips Sealed

Just be thankful it was Truck who moved this, as a military man, he has endless patience with the lower ranks. Now Ozzy on the other hand spends his days dealing with people who should not even look at a mouse let alone have on in their hands, so you can imagine the reaction you would get from him Grin Grin
