    Description

    MFS2024 A-400 Lighting Mod

    This is a VC lighting mod for the MFS2024 SU1 release, toned down overly bright light bounce under the glareshield and VC ambient lighting.  Since only .fx files can be modified due to encryption, extensive lighting overhaul is out of reach at this point.   

    V1.1
    To make it work with SU1

    V1.0
    1) under glareshield light bounce from LCD screens toned down
    2) prevent lights from illuminating area above the glareshield and center post
    3) beacon lights adjusted to prevent light passing through fuselage
    4) rear and wing flood lights toned down

    To install, place "xA400_light_mod" folder in the MSFS2024/Community folder.

    Hi, unfortunately the some parts of the mod no longer works correctly after Sim Update 1. Are you planning an update?

    The rear nav lights are at least extremely bright again and look like reverse lights. The lights in the cockpit are also very bright again.

    Nevertheless: Thanks for your work so far, it makes flying the A400M in the dark much more enjoyable.

    wow nice, didn't know you can already mod anything. Cool as inibuilds doesn't seem to give a damn about a400. Thanks

    thanks. modding is limited due to many critical files being encrypted.

    Placing this in my MSFS24 Community folder did nothing for me unfortunately. Suspect this is due to the streamed aircraft of MSFS 2024. If anyone knows a fix let me know as I love this plane so much but the lights really kills it for me during night time ops.

    model is first first streamed to your pc in full before the mod is applied so it works fine. not sure what's up with your setup, but may want to double check the sim is pointing to the correct /community folder and there are no other m400 mods that could interfere.

    Community folder is confirmed, and I have no other mods for the A400M in there. Will give it another go.

    Where can I find the aircraft effects folder? I have so many light mods planned but its a shame everything is streamed. They NEED to change that!
