Hi Tekman No problem just explaining why it's not a comprehensive answer. you might find it easier to use a different colout for the LL polys. default i think is 255'255'255 (white). try a mid grey of say 190,190,190 (light will still be white but not as bright) "Diffuse" is the only colou...

Hi Tekman

I'm a little up to my ears currently frantically trying to get the 748 ready.

Hi Tekman

in FSDS2

create a Front view model (model, add new)

then copy and paste your light beam polygons into the front view model.

Then you will see the light beams from the 2d panel.

Hi Tekman

you still didn't say which 3d proggy.

you need the Light polys for Taxy and Landing Lamps in front view model
to see them in the 2 d panel.

ie: you need a front view model to see the beams in the 2d panel.

Without knowing what your designing in i don't know.
