I consulted thy almighty oracles (ofpec  ;D) and they say you have to use a script:

(http://www.ofpec.com/forum/index.php?topic=21997.0). They also state this might kill performance because you can't use a delay in the script because the "Light off" action only works for a split second and a script delay would turn it into a disco flashlight.

Thanks Zwoboit, I tried the "Light "OFF"" command in init but that crashed the game (I used manned MG, maybe I should use empty?). I don't know why but I have a feeling this is not going to be easy...

Use the WGL M2HB or DSHK or NSV - just add more magazines....

I remember I had problems with this before...

??? Will that turn off the light??

They don't have lights at all as far as I remember.... but thay are kneeling height ones, unlike the BIS one which is standing height, which might make it hard to put behind some windows etc...

Would be good if WGL had included some mounted PKM and M60, I know there are some but they are extra addons...

Congrats with your 100th post Marto Smile but I'm afraid that is the same performance killer Zwobot links in second post (seems he has flooded the forum over there Smile )

ah yes I see now - same problem with that chopper having the light on in careless mode...
