Thanks for the heads up. Issue reported.

They are...

Hmm... wait, how do you do this?

OK, I got this:

1. Armor plates hide lights, one needs to removed them.
2. If the aircraft is set with no hardpoints in the ME, lights will be present and they will work.
3. If the aircraft is set with hardpoints in the ME, and the player remove them during the mission, lights are missing. That's the bug.

That's the behaviour since the first release of the module....so even if you report it, don't get your hopes high this will change in the near future.  But as the saying goes, hope dies last.

You do know the invisible hardpoints were fixed in 2023?

Things are a-changin'.

No because i stopped flying ~mid 2022 and didn't had time for it until the beginning of~2024 with the exception of some short trips. So it looks like i missed the short periode it worked, mea culpa

Thank you.

Anyway, it doesn't match the visibility angles (110º green and red, and 140º the white)

If it brights and works I would call that a win!

The position lights are a problem since ever in general, it has someting to do with the core light emitter model in DCS. I think its possible to make a complete new standard one day, an emitter what emitts light in certain angles only, look at the rotating beacons - there it works.
