reported Groovy lights on KC-135 MPRS

[4H_Ccrashh]

Running latest standard version with Military AC and Civilian AC mod.

Night mission Nellis AFB, KC-135 MPRS taxis to the runway and turns on lights before takeoff. The light itself is white, the beam reflected off the side of the AC and the runway is magenta. 

 

No other aircraft taking off (B-52, AWACS) have this issue.

I agree. There are actually two bugs with KC-135MPRS unit:

• landing lights are only lit once unit is aligned on the runway
• landing lights cast a purple light

Here's a track showing both KC-135 and KC-135MPRS taxiing then taking off.

Seems fine for me, can not reproduce

 

are you using any shader mods? try cleaning out the fxo and metashader2 folder in saved games dcs see if it helps

 

thank you

@BIGNEWY There are two aircraft on my track. Have you waited for the second aircraft to turn her lights on?

• the first one is a standard KC-135 and her lights are OK
• the second one is a KC-135MPRS and her lights cast this purple light once she reaches the runway

I use no mods, no ReShade or anything. I've just done a slow repair and also renamed my Saved Games\DCS.openbeta folder just to be sure. Purple light is still here. I bet Prince is on board.

I will retest

 

Edit: Reported, yes looks like in my haste I did not look at the correct aircraft. 

 

I have reported it now. 

 

thanks
