Paco Posted May 29, 2020 Posted May 29, 2020 The light on the refueling probe does not illuminate the basket during night refueling. I look on the external view and see the peanut light is on but it doesn't illuminate the basket. Seem to remember is used to. And yes, I'm probably the only dork who tanks at night. Paco
Nealius Posted May 30, 2020 Posted May 30, 2020 It worked for me the other day, but it was excessively bright and caused pixelated artifacts on the S-3 basket.

Paco Posted May 30, 2020 Author Posted May 30, 2020 Odd. I was tanking off the KC-135 and it was completely dark. I did verify by external view that the lights were on including the peanut light, but it didn't light up the tanker. I'm on the road. Will posts pics later. Paco
Paco Posted May 31, 2020 Author Posted May 31, 2020 Just tested the Harrier and the light on the basket worked. Paco
Nealius Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 Were you on stable? Open Beta. You might have left your master lights pinky switch off, or inadvertently bumped it before refueling.
petritis Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 On the other hand if you order your AI wing man to hit the tanker at night, his probe illuminates fine. But i didn't make it to light my own, although in external view i can see a small dimmed light. "ARGO 2.0 Project Phoenix" UH-1H DLC Campaign - WIP "ARGO" DCS UH-1H DLC SP Campaign
Paco Posted June 1, 2020 Author Posted June 1, 2020 Open Beta. You might have left your master lights pinky switch off, or inadvertently bumped it before refueling. Nope, my lights were on. I'll replay the mission and post pics. On the F2 view, I could see the peanut light on, but it doesn't illuminate the basket. More accurately.........the graphics representation of the light being on does not produce a picture that represents an illuminated basket. Paco
Sandman1330 Posted June 2, 2020 Posted June 2, 2020 Same issue. All lights turned on, light appears on from outside, but it does not illuminate the tanker. I'm forced to refuel on goggles, which would be fine if the tanker's red wingtip light wasn't flaring my NVG directly in front of me through the whole process!

robgraham Posted June 3, 2020 Posted June 3, 2020 The issue with the S3 is that the baskets normals are inverted meaning it screws up with light sources hitting it.. reported it ages ago still hasn't been fixed. i7 13700k, 64gb DDR5, Warthog HOTAS, HP Reverb G2 VR, win 11, RTX 3070 TGW Dedicated Server Admin, Australian PVE/PVP gameplay.

Northstar98 Posted June 3, 2020 Posted June 3, 2020 It'll probably get fixed when the S-3's model gets updated.
