Raz_Specter Posted September 7, 2018 Author Posted September 7, 2018 was it a bug? i was thinking that i can't turn them on because of me. irrespective of the time of day or night, you should be able to turn the external lights on or off, like the formation ones etc Custom built W10 Pro 64Bit, Intel Core i9 9900k, Asus ROG Maximus Code XI Z390, 64GB DDR4 3200 RGB, Samsung 1TB NVme M.2 Drive, Gigabyte AORUS 2080TI, 40" Iiyama Display.

derodo Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 Maybe you have the “global external lights” switch off? Don’t remember the exact name on the bindings, but its the switch on the left side of the left throttle axis. If its aft, no external lights will turn on. I usually have all them on, and just flick that switch aft when fencing in :P

Daytime - you can put the external formation lights on etc Nighttime - they don't work sounds like an easy fix to be honest and would help those doing night missions Hum, maybe the fix is 10 times easier to be fix by ED than you actualy though and told them, as i think it's mostly a pilot error or in any cases, on your side, as i just tried on latest Open Beta version and latest Stable version, both night mission created for 3 AM time, tried both, Hornet parking hot and cold start on both DCS versions, all 4 situations all lights were working, no issues on my side, most likely something wrong on your side.

Doum76 Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 (edited) where is this switch? on my side, it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. i always use the plane either running engines or auto start. Look at your throttle, there is a flip switch on the left side of the left engine throttle handle, that is your master switch light, jsut look for the bindings in the controls options (can't remember the default keys as i binded it to a HOTAs switch), flip it on and off and you'll see it move while looking at your throttle to spot the switch easily Edited September 7, 2018 by Doum76
