Hey guys, just for note in case of a fix....

Interior lighting
Interior lighting is provided by integral, flood and post lights. Three lighting control knobs grouped together on
the left-hand part of the left panel control the interior lighting:
• Normal lighting – instrument panel visor lighting
• Emergency lighting – overhead lights
• Instruments/radio lighting – console visor lighting and instrument panel lighting

There is no separation of the lights, it's all or nothing.  Three knobs but no individual control.

Thanks

The cockpit lighting is currently toggled on/off using the traditional lighting system, however we are currently looking into providing a free update with dimmable lighting controlled by the individual knobs.

Thanks for the reply Martyn. Even if it's not on a dimmer but just make the panel lights separate from the overhead lights would be great for night flying.

Thanks.

With the advent of HDR in P3D ALL common-installer aircraft should now include dimmable lighting as standard. 

The standard lighting with HDR will cause `whiteout` conditions in all P3Dv3 versions if it's left as the old FSX `on/off` option. It's actually enough to be a go/nogo decision on purchase for me as diurnal operations are cool, but flight in dusk/dawn and night are one of the main reasons for purchase of a professional simulator.

JF: IMPO These things should be considered by developers of all products intended for joint installation, or separate versions should be provided - the HDR buttons have been standard fare on several versions of the L-M sim for several iterations.

We've seen no issues when using the TB10/TB20 lighting with HDR enabled in P3D v3, however as mentioned above we are working on a dimmable lighting system.
