	I would like to increase the intensity or brightness of the my CS 757-200 strobe lights. Is there a way to edit the aircraft.cfg file to make this change? Thanks for your help! simboy_al

	I wanna do that too, in fact I'll check out the .cfg files and see if we can do something about it.

	Maybe the strobe lights are a part of the MDL file. If they are, the only way to increase the intensity would be to edit the MDL file itself.

	Actually you don't need to edit MDL. 757 uses "fx_strobe" effect. So try to edit it.

You're right there should be strobe lines in aircraft.cfg, but there are not. And you're �right once again saying the lights are in MDL file. Just open it with ModelConverterX and you'll see.
