No runway lights with my photo scenery

[buzzard2008]

Hey guys I seem to have lost runway lights for most/all of my photo scenery areas. All my Orbx areas work ok, NZAA etc. Here is a shot circling over Wellington airport and as you can see no lights. All the other city lights look great. Has anyone here had a similar problem? maybe you could point me toward a solution? I tried using the textures in Rex + overdrive but still nothing

Buzz , I have no answer for this other than thinking the possible FS settings .. ORBX switch's can be horrible and shut affects like this down.

Are you running DX10 mode by any chance? If not, this thread could be of interest:

No I've never used dx10 before I got my graphics looking rather good and don't really wanna change anything if I can help it

Good thing is stick with what you know ... really I seldom night fly , old days I did , I'll have a look at your settings and compare.

Thanks Ian, I haven't had a chance to get to my computer but will after work today, I have inspector and nvidia control panel but they are nothing flash, just basic tweaks picked up online infant the only tweaks I have in my cfg are the pinned post ones that were on fsx professionals Facebook, the less the better for my machine

Did you check the link I gave you? - it has a possible fix in.

Heya guys sorry Ive been so long in getting back to yall, one word, work. Here are screenshots of all my settings in game, Nvidia Inspaector/Controll Panel, Scenery Library and a pic of what my Halo bmp files look like. Ive noticed that there is no .bak at the end of any of them hence maybe nothing to change? Also my cfg file:
