The overall taste of this add-on is not bad, but I get the impression that the lighting of the aircraft is incomplete.
The navigation light on the top of the fuselage illuminates the cockpit, brightening the panel even during the day. Also, the current P3D landing light effect (fx_landing.fx) doesn't illuminate the light source, so it looks like the light source isn't lit even at night.
When I checked the exterior model with Model Converter X (MCX), the effect fx_AH_white.fx was assigned to the light source of the landing light. However, this effect is omitted.
I have resolved these to the extent that users find it customizable.
Fx_AH_white.fx included in the attached zip file is a point type light source effect. It was created with MCX and has no dynamic light effect. Place it in the following folder together with fx_AHrecog_red.fx.

Also, rewrite the [lights] section of aircraft.cfg in the following folder.
Aeroplaneheaven Hurricane MK1 \ SimObjects \ Airplanes \ AH_Hawker_Hurricane_Mk1 \ aircraft.cfg
[lights]
// Types: 1 = beacon, 2 = strobe, 3 = navigation, 4 = cockpit, 5 = landing
//light.0 = 4, -3.53, 0, 0.62, fx_vclight
light.1 = 3, 1.850000, -18.28, -1.200000, fx_navredh
light.2 = 3, 1.850000, 18.28, -1.200000, fx_navgreh
light.3 = 3, -6.350000, 0.000000, 2.600000, fx_AH_white
light.4 = 3, -5.650000, 0.000000, -2.300000, fx_AHrecog_red
fx_navredh and fx_navgreh are slightly larger light sources. This will depend on your taste.
Finally, I made some modifications to the model file.
Aeroplaneheaven Hurricane MK1 \ SimObjects \ Airplanes \ AH_Hawker_Hurricane_Mk1 \ model.Mk1
Open AH_HurricaneMK1_PBR_exterior.mdl in the above folder with MCX (it may take some time to open). Remove the following two effects with the Attached Object Editor.
attachpt_AH_white_43
attachpt_AH_white_42
These effects are not needed as they are set in aircraft.cfg.
attachpt_navwhih_40
For this, the light source installed on the ladder is too strong, so change the effect name to fx_navwhi. After making the above changes, export it as an mdl file for v4.4 with MCX. This may also take some time. Let's wait patiently. Don't forget to back up the files you change.
Once you've mastered all these steps, you'll be able to fix the lights on older aircraft, such as the FSX generation C172 and Beaver.

If you copy this folder to the user folder, you can start the effect tool with [tools] on the menu bar and visually check the effect.
I opened the .fx file with a text editor and studied the contents a little, and I also learned the troublesome work.
