Installation: |
<< Very
Important >>
1) First of all create a backup
of your original "Aircraft.cfg"
file(s).
2) Unzip RNLE2.zip file to a
temporary folder. Then move "effects" folder to your main
FS2002 folder. This will not over right any of your default effects.
3) Open "Aircrafts"
folder in your temporary folder. Open an aircraft “~~~.txt” file (for
example B757-200(Mike Stone).txt) and copy all "Light.X=~~~~~"
lines. (Highlight them and press Ctrl+C )
4) Now go to your original aircraft folder
and open your "Aircraft.cfg" file of
aircraft witch you choose (e.g Aircraft\B757_200r\aircraft.cfg )
with windows standard notepad. paste copied lines in" [Lights] Section" (go to last line of
this section and press
Ctrl+V ) ,then correct Light.X
numbers. for example if your last
original light number is X(e.g light.11)
change your first new added "light.X" to "light.X+1" (e.g light.12)
and so on(13,14,…) .save it and exit.
Example:
The last
line of your beech baron 58 aircraft’s light section is:
Light.7= 4, -8.00, 0.00,
2.70, fx_vclight,
You must
paste following line to this section(bellow the above
line) to add lighting effect:
Light.X= 6, 10.0,
0.00, -5.00, RNLE2,
It must be
look like this if you paste it correctly:
Light.7= 4, -8.00, 0.00,
2.70, fx_vclight,
Light.X= 6, 10.0,
0.00, -5.00, RNLE2,
Finally you need to correct X number(s). your
final lines should be look like this after editing:
Light.7= 4, -8.00, 0.00,
2.70, fx_vclight,
Light.8= 6, 10.0,
0.00, -5.00, RNLE2,
Remember that
If there are more new light X lines you must
correct all of them.
