Caribbean Airline takes off and land on RWN 10 at St. Maarten Int. (TNCM).
Realistic Beacon Lights Created from Shockwave 3D Lights Redux's Textures.
I have always wanted Real Beacon Lights for Flight Simulator X and now I have them. If you want to see real strobe and Beacon lights, go to BlueStar167's channel.

Here is the CFG Lines.
[LIGHTS]
//Types: 1=beacon, 2=strobe, 3=navigation, 4=cockpit, 5=landing, 6=taxi, 7=recognition, 8=wing, 9=logo, 10=cabin

light.2 = 5, 5.50, -8.35, 0.20, fx_shockwave_landing_light_small_xenon // left wing landing light

light.3 = 5, 5.50, 8.35, 0.20, fx_shockwave_landing_light_small_xenon // right wing landing light

light.4 = 6, 42.6, 0.00, -5.85, fx_shockwave_landing_light_short // taxi light which are attached to the wheel (no need to edit panel.cfg)

light.5 = 5, 6.70, 3.40, -3.80, fx_shockwave_landing_light_narrow_no_flare // bottom right landing light

light.6 = 5, 6.70, -3.40, -3.80, fx_shockwave_landing_light_narrow_no_flare //bottom left landing light

light.7 = 1, 6.00, 0.50, 9.80, fx_shockwave_beacon_fastflash_lowl // top beacon light

light.8 = 1, -8.00, 0.00, -2.20, fx_shockwave_beacon_fastflash_lowl // bottom beacon light

light.9 = 2, -27.5, -57.3, 7.00, Fx_shockwave_strobe // left wing strobe light if needed. (not very realistic on the ground)

light.10 = 2, -27.5, 57.3, 7.00, Fx_shockwave_strobe // right wing strobe light if needed. (not very realistic on the ground)

light.11 = 3, -72.0, -0.00, 7.50, fx_shockwave_navwhi_l // large navigation light near the apu

A couple things to note.

1) These lights are only valid for pmdg 737-800 winglet model without a satcom antenna. Only The 4 landing lights can be used on 737-800 without winglets.
2) Wing strobes light sits in the center of the winglets due to wing flex. However, they appears in their correct position after the plane is in the air.
3) The Beacon lights were created from a Shockwave redux Strobe light cfg file. If you like real beacons then all you have to do is open up a strobe light cfg file and replace the color settings to a beacon cfg file settings. (its too long to explain in details)

  • AWESOME VIDEO! Thank you so much for the effects and the camera angles were awesome! Where did you get all that AI? It seems like a lot, and that looks great. Anyways, GREAT JOB!

  • @DMac10121 thanks for the comment.

    Ai traffic is just Traffic X and 30%

  • the lights looks even more awesome when lens flare and light bloom are enabled. But everybody know that's a major major frame killer -30fps

  • Hey Tubers,

    great vid you got here. Just wondering if you had the Redux 3D lights CFG information for the PMDG at all?

    Many thanks : )

  • @happygoluckychappy Please read video description. I've updated it.
