787-9 Lights viewed from the outside

    Hi all,
    I've been having an issue in that the lights in the cabin of the 787-9 can be seen from the outside of the plane when it's night (and not through the windows). This doesn't happen when the Nav lights are switched off. This is in MSFS 2024. I've attached a link to a screenshot below, where you can see the lights are above the windows. Any ideas how to fix this/if this will be fixed in a future update? I'm on Xbox if that helps.
    Thanks,

        This issue has been fixed. We'll wait for marketplace to release the update.

          Hi,
          wow. Thank you for this.
          We'll have to see what we can do on the 2020 side of things.
          But the 2024 version should be cleansed of anything passed on from 2020.

              Hi Francis,
              Have just been using the 787-8 in MSFS 2024 and thought it would be good to let you know that the same issue is occuring on the B788 as well.
              Thanks so much for your help!

              1. I'm going to release a patch this Monday to address this. This after all was a SU3 bug.

                    Hi Francis,
                    Thanks for this. The issue still persists however on both aircraft. I'm wondering if it's an issue with the patch, or has the patch just not released yet? Let me know your thoughts.
                    Thanks

                        This is SU3 issue. Some effects are not supported. I have to try to bypass this until the native is released.
