To add on to the above said, I have run into a variety of nuisances I'd like to share: - Anytime I enable any lighting setting, more specifically aircraft or autogen lighting, I lose most light polygons that comes with orbx base. I have also noticed that aircraft windows on the start page preview window also disappear. As soon as I disable it, they return. No matter what values I use, this happens. I had initially thought I had an issue with orbx or even P3D itself. I have deleted and reinstalled everything, P3D inclusive, and then realized that the RDshade customized preset was inducing this issue. - autogen emissive lighting has no effect on the autogen brightness. No matter what values I use, the autgen still shows overly bright. -in regards to aircraft lighting settings, they also do not make any changes to the brightness or shadows either inside or outside the aircraft. But as mentioned above, they do erase night light polygons on the ground.

Good Morning, I had recently downloaded & installed RDshade to work with P3D v4.5, however, I have noticed that only some settings are taking effect. I have been able to modify a few items such as clouds, sky & terrain saturation, etc.. but some other settings have no change what so ever. I have been having a really hard time noticing any lighting changes with virtual cockpit diffuse and ambient values, aircraft exterior, or autogen night lighting. I have tried to set the values at both extremes of the spectrum, but I have failed to notice any changes. I then proceeded to not use the live change function, and close P3D before making any changes, and then opening it afterwards to no avail. I have used PTA in the past so I'm a little familiar with customizing shaders and lighting values. For what its worth, I looked up the the preset files that's generated every time I apply new shader settings, and I noticed that there are 2 separate files with shader settings, one titled "Prepar3D v4.5.14.xxxx" and another "Prepar3D v5.3.17.xxxx', which is curious since I have never had P3D v5 ever installed in my computer. both preset files also have values for different settings, so they're not identical. any help would be appreciated! thanks, Zauris
