Lights shine through surfaces-Exterior Lighting issue-Duke
-
Hey everyone. I got an issue with the lighting of both of the dukes. The recogniotion, Landing and taxi lights shine kind of backwards through the surfaces like the wingtips or the lamps/Gear/Fuselage. Also when you look from the cockpit to the recognition lights, there appears a small flash emitted by the recognition lights, shining through the wing. Appears with and without the lights mod by Zinertek

I saw exactly this while testing with the Dukes in SU3 Beta. Before SU3, there were big problems with lights shining through objects, being misaligned, and other issue. In SU3, Asobo provided a new flag for us to set in the lighting effects that prohibited the halos/flares that were causing the issues, specifically on omni-directional lights. I believe this is what's going on in your screenshots, since I don't see the navigation lights shining through, but only the omni-directional lights that I've added to enhance the lighting effects. Are you using the newly updated 2024 native version of the Dukes? Do you have any liveries/mods installed that may have overwritten my new lighting effects? It's also possible there was a reversion in the latest SU4 Beta, if you're on the beta branch. I can help you troubleshoot more from there, but I hope this might give you some places to start looking for what's interfering with those new files.

Yes I’m in the newest beta of Microsoft flight simulator. It appeared in the fs20 and fs24 version. I don’t have any livery mods installed but only the Zinertec light mods which also didn’t do a change. Thanks for your fast reply.

@Black-Square Thus, when I look to the sides of the plane from the outside, I notice some kind of "flickering shadows" on the whole plane. Only appears in certain angles.
