Hi all!!!

Does someone knows how to add correctly the "Shockwave 3D Lights Redux for fs9" to the Captainsim's B757-200/300???

Tks in advance

Fábio

Don't know if I sow a topic about this, I don't remeber and did't find it!

Regards

Fábio

I just bought that add-on, but haven't tried it yet.  I'm interested in adding it to CptSim's 757-200 also since I'll be using this so much now.

Hi all!!

Can someone help us, since shockwave's 3d party data base doesn't include Captainsim's B757!

Regards

Fábio

Firstly I dont have this addon, but there's a section in your aircraft.cfg:
[LIGHTS]        
light.0 = 1,   0.70,   0.00, -3.90, fx_beaconh
light.1 = 1,  40.00,   0.30, 10.57, fx_beaconh
light.2 = 4,  67.00,   2.00,  5.19, fx_vclightwhi
light.3 = 4,  67.00,   -2.00,  5.19, fx_vclightwhi
light.4 = 5,  15.35,   7.35,  0.10, cs757_land
light.5 = 5,  15.35,  -7.35,  0.10, cs757_land
light.6 = 7, -17.00, -47.00,  2.50, cs757_sf
light.7 = 7, -17.00,  47.00,  2.50, cs757_sf
light.8 = 8, 13.40, -17.47, 3.40, cs757_edge
light.9 = 8, 13.40,  17.47, 3.40, cs757_edge

These are your landing lights. You will have to add your parameters in those lines. If your lights-addon is just an effect file then just replace cs757_land with the files name.
Hope thisll help

Tks for your informatio,

I'm using this configuration

[LIGHTS]        
light.0 = 1,   0.70,   0.00, -3.90, fx_shockwave_beaconh , //fx_beaconh
light.1 = 1,  40.00,   0.30, 10.57, fx_shockwave_beaconh , //fx_beaconh
light.2 = 4,  67.00,   2.00,  5.19, fx_shockwave_vclight_l , //fx_vclightwhi
light.3 = 4,  67.00,   -2.00,  5.19, fx_shockwave_vclight_l , //fx_vclightwhi
light.4 = 5,  15.35,   7.35,  0.10, fx_Shockwave_landing_light ,      //cs757_land
light.5 = 5,  15.35,  -7.35,  0.10, fx_Shockwave_landing_light ,      //cs757_land
light.6 = 7, -17.00, -47.00,  2.50, fx_Shockwave_landing_light ,      //cs757_sf
light.7 = 7, -17.00,  47.00,  2.50, fx_Shockwave_landing_light ,      //cs757_sf
light.8 = 8, 13.40, -17.47, 3.40, cs757_edge
light.9 = 8, 13.40,  17.47, 3.40, cs757_edge

It's only a tentative to do it. I think it is possible to do it better. There are a lot of effects installed and Shockwave Manufacture don't have yet a configuration predefined.

The effect is realy nice and soberb, but I can't put the shockwave lights in the nose gear lights. Don't know how to do it! Does someone have any idea? Perhaps those lights are linked to the 3D model. Don't know!

PS: don't forget to put the below line in the VC1 section:
gauge28=shockwave_lights!SW Lights_gear,  1,1,1,1 //shockwave light

I have shockwave 3D light fsx,  NOT RELUX edition. can that be add to my CS757 and other addon craft?
if yes, am I right, just replace my cs757 CFG file with configuration given by Santos Dumont?

thanks alot

you did a mistake with light 6 an 7, these are effects for Con Trails...

...for the taxilight, you have to find the right coordinates, just add a third Landing light entry, perhaps with a shockwave taxi light effect and play with the coordinates till it is fitting...

after that it could look like this...

Included are the vc doom light, rotating beakon, xeon landing, and small taxi heading down.

To be independent of the gear (landing lights are switched on by default descending below FL100)
dont add the shockwave gear entry in the panel.cfg and delete the line regarding light.12, the taxi light
is linked to the taxi light switches and could be turned on after gear down, landing lights of course are
linked to the landing light switches.

Hi Stormfly!!!

Tks a lot for the entries!! I've tested them and what a show is it now!!!

Regards

Looks very great is this added on the tested on the FS9 version of the CS 757 or the FSX version.
I am verry curious to us this in FS9

I use shockwave lights in fs9 only and looks very nice, like in the photos taken by Stormfly! He did a great job!

Thanks much..!

Sebastian

Just tried this, and thankyou.
Just one thing.
If I want to control the landing lights before GEAR DOWN how do I edit the panel.cfg
(Dont want to gear down at 10,000ft).
Will the nose light go out when wheels retracted?
Cheers
Eddie

...but carefull with

light.2 = 4,  67.00,   2.00,  5.19, fx_shockwave_vclight_l.fx
light.3 = 4,  67.00,   -2.00, 5.19, fx_shockwave_vclight_l.fx

it would be better that you let them original, cause it seams that this are effects for the bigger rain wash animation on the windows... on the other hand, it seams that i have always enough light to read the gauges now, even with frontlight at daytimes, using overhead light switch.  :-X

Now that the addons are out, I installed Shockwave to both of them.
Freighter needs the same entries as -200.

You can use this for -300:

[LIGHTS]
light.0 = 1,   0.70,   0.00, -3.90, fx_shockwave_beacon_rotating_red.fx
light.1 = 1,  55.20,   0.40, 10.57, fx_shockwave_beacon_rotating_red.fx
light.2 = 4,  79.00,   2.00,  5.19, fx_shockwave_vclight.fx
light.3 = 4,  79.00,   -2.00,  5.19, fx_shockwave_vclight.fx
light.4 = 5,  15.35,   7.35,  0.10, Fx_shockwave_landing_light_small_xenon
light.5 = 5,  15.35,  -7.35,  0.10, Fx_shockwave_landing_light_small_xenon
light.6 = 7, -17.00, -47.00,  2.50, cs757_sf
light.7 = 7, -17.00,  47.00,  2.50, cs757_sf
light.8 = 8, 13.40, -17.47, 3.40, cs757_edge
light.9 = 8, 13.40,  17.47, 3.40, cs757_edge
light.10= 6,  69.90,    0.7, -4.70, fx_shockwave_landing_light_narrow_down.fx
light.11= 6,  69.90,   -0.7, -4.70, fx_shockwave_landing_light_narrow_down.fx

Hi all!!
After I installed the new Shockwave Lights Redux fs9 update 1.1 (see: www.shockwaveproductions.com/shockwave_3dlights/swlights_utility_v1.1.zip) I have the wing landing lights desapiered and the noge gear light doesn't go out eny more). This ahppens in all models. I thing there is something to do with new effects, althow the names are the same. Does some one has experienced that?

Regards

Fábio

For you information, just unistalled shockwave base and update and installed them once more. Now evething works correct.

I have a problem with the 3D llights Redux on the CS 757 pro pack.
I have installed the lights like a few posts back in this topic.
All lights works perfect, only the taxi lights that iluminatus the front fuselage do not have the 3D effect.
I have win XP SP3, FSX SP2, CS 757-200 pro.

Anyone nows why this one does not work correctly ?

I also have a question about the tail light.
Is it possible to make it a bit brighter.
When I fly at dusk, you cannot even see it at the shadow side.  

I am almost certain the CS 757 model has a few lights that are embedded into the model that can not be modified by the aircraft.cfg.
Nonetheless, here is my setup if you want to try.

[LIGHTS]
//Types: 1=beacon, 2=strobe, 3=navigation, 4=cockpit, 5=landing  
light.0 = 1, 0.70, 0.00, -3.90,fx_beaconh

light.3 = 4, 67.00, 2.00, 5.19, fx_shockwave_vclight_l
light.4 = 4, 67.00, -2.00, 5.19, fx_shockwave_vclight_l
light.5 = 5, 15.35, 7.35, 0.10, Fx_shockwave_landing_light_small_xenon
light.6 = 5, 15.35, -7.35, 0.10, Fx_shockwave_landing_light_small_xenon

Thanks a BUNCH!!!!

Greatly Appreciate it!  :)
