Captain Sim 777 lighting.....?

The place to ask for help or solve each others technical issues and discuss hardware

Postby Timmy74 » Sun Apr 13, 2014 9:05 pm

Hi Guys,

If some one has the Captain Sim 777 could you please let me know how I go about turning on the cockpit and external nav lights on please........ Its doing my head in!!!

I press in the "Master Switch" on the over head panel but nothing happens when I click ALL of the switches that have anything to do with lights.... I even try with both the "Master Switch" on and off....???

Even pressing "L" as my default cheat switch for lighting nothing happens......????!!!!

Thought a fresh install on my part may/might point some direction to the error, I'm sure its only small and maybe MS muck again.

Rocky, I recall the fix, but as one further down mentioned making sure everything was turned on, the generators.

I guys,

Thanks for the link and the help.

I have tried that (generators) and can now get the external nav lights, beacon and cabin lights (dome light, map light and glare shield lights) to work.

I can not however get the green backlit panel lights to work!!!!! Again no matter what I click or rotate!!!

I AM SOOOOO OVER THIS AIRCRAFT!!!!

That's a first for me!!

So the few hours between day and night ( I think they call it "dusk"), I can not have my panel lights on?????? So the 777 can only be flown either during the day or at night? Strange how all other lights can be turned on no matter what time of day, but the panel lights can not be.

I think I will put her back in the hanger!

Thank you so much for all of your help gentleman.

Kind regards.

I did not get a chance to re-install the 777 , but i have followed the model build - and I did have the nav's working , I wonder if it is a corrupt d/load - I do recall nav lights , or maybe missed a patch, end of the day its a WIP and customer build so i wonder if you may have missed an update.
