active LOWI No Dynamic Light upon arrival P3Dv5.1 HF2

[max303]

Hello Orbx-Team!

 

Simualtor: P3Dv5.1 HF1 with EA activated

Scenery: Orbx LOWI 1.30 with option P3Dv4 Dynamic Lights activated

CPU: Intel i9-9900k

Graphicscard: RTX 3080 (actual driver version 460.79)

RAM: 32GB 3600MHz

 

I have installed the actual LOWI V1.30 scenery and i have the problem, that on arrival  the Dynamic Light is misssing. Departing from LOWI is not the problem, the Dynamic Lights working as intended.
But at arrival to the airport, the airport is completely dark. It´s seems that there is a fallback to legacy light as seen in the screenshot below.
This happens after a testflight from FT LOWW to Orbx LOWI. And it is reproducable every single flight.

 

I searched your forums, that i´m not the only one having this problems.

I build in the fX controller files that the user "Johannes Bautz" has uploaded to this thread.
But that didn´t solve the problem.

So i built my own fX controller files, compared to soultion fixes from you (Orbx) or from other developers (Aerosoft), etc..., they solved the problem with a fx controller file.

But no chance to get the Dynamic Lights working on arrival!

 

I found a forumsthread about EGPH, where the same problem occured. After some testing of the Dev´s, a solution was found and an update via Orbx Central was released.

 

Can you please take a look into it, and help me and other users having this problem?
If you need more helpful informations from my side, let me know.

 

Thank you very much in advance!

 

Kind regards!

After MANY hours of searching for similar problems that I had with my sceneries (even with controller files), I have found a solution that works well in most cases.

 

The controller files should include:

 

[Library Effect]
Lifetime=5
Version=1.00
Radius=200

Priority=0

 

[controller.0]
lifetime=0.0, 0.0
type=3
distance=4000.00, 4000.00
delay=80000.00, 80000.00

.....

 

The effect file that the controller is poiting to, should be in Version=2.00.

 

In addition, it is suggested to have separate bgl file for the dynamic lights, included in airport scenery folder.

 

Hope this helps.
