Dark Cockpit...

Apart from the glare shield, the rest of the cockpit is bathed in darkness. Overhead dome light and master bright have no effect.

Am I missing something regarding how to get lighting into the cockpit ?

Regards

Also having an issue with the pedestal flood, dome, and storm lights. Insanely dark at night, can't really fly! Pilot/FO floods work.

Yes, fully up to date with the EICAS and Salty mods.

Btw, found the flood light knobs which definitely improved things, but parts of the cockpit are still pretty dark. I guess it would be the (inoperable) dome light that would really improve the lighting ?

There is a bug with the newest version of the compatibility mod that makes the dome light inoperable. For now just use the flood lights.

Thanks - yes I was beginning to wonder that as I was pretty sure that I had seen the dome lighting at some point in the past...

Yeah it kind of through me for a loop, too. Masterrob (developer of the compatibility mod) did say that he is only working on the 777 for now and will continue to make improvements to the 767 once he is done with the 777.

If the dome light is an issue for you, I remember reading in the comments section for the compatibility mod that someone found the text line and corrected it.
