Default Small Leigh Light Mod for GWX & NYGM.

Made this last spring, ran across it today and figured I might as well upload it.
It makes the lights available only from 6/42 as was historically the case vs. all the time. UPDATE 8/23/21: The GWX Sunderland is equipped with a light but never carried one historically so it's .eqp file has been changed to reflect that. The Wellington has also been added to the mod.
See the readme for details.

1. Instructions for not using Commander are in the readme. I like using the date function of Commander a lot for many things; that way one doesn't have to remember to put in the files vis JSGME at the appropriate time, etc.
Either option is available in the mod.



2. I know; the Wellington was. But the Wellington didn't have the 3d work done to it for the light and the Sunderland did in the two mods iirc.

I'm not familar with how to do that work so left things as the mods have them.
Maybe I'll take a look at what was done at some point.

Was just looking at that myself. Not sure why they had the Sunderland with it, but when I get the chance I'll take it out and put the Wellington in.
