Hi,

ok, run the following test.

Made copy of modded game to run tests.(don't want to mess everything up do we!!)

created night mission with search lights.

flew mission lights where ok.

I THEN REPLACED my confi with yours.

I lost the search beams, just like you.

Basically, I don't now enough to advise you on this, but it is my opinion that the error is in the confi file of yours, because if you look at mine, i don't have half the things you have at the end, yet it still changes my game, so the error is in here & not in mods.

I have tried changing a few settings , but it is very time consuming & its something you can do yourself.

I reccommend you make a copy, change setting by setting until you've done them all.

Maybe someone has a better solution. :wink:

Maybe you could start changing the OpenGL values one by one?

Thanks guys, I will try it when my computer was ok, because my alimentation font, literally burns. So In one week more or less I don't have computer

I let you know when I try it.
And thanks again
