strobe light effect, strength of the flash and frequency as it is in pmdg, or any other comparing airplane. In poskys 777 the strobe goes once a 2 seconds and flashes too long with simple boring white spot without any 'echo' like it does in pmdg models.

You could try copying the PMDG lines to the Posky

You want bluer strobes 🙄 then here you are, I use these from Avsim, just type ....... (strobe.zip) in the Avsim search bar, without the brackets ofcourse. 👍

this file changes only 'halo' of the light which is good too, but I am still fighting myself through all the number in lights line in aircraft.cfg. I figured it out which ones are responsible for position on the wings but am still stuck with the frequency... :/
