Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:

The Pilatus PC-12 NGX has several missing sounds and some model / visual bugs, in the new SU1 Update. Doors do not have noises internally or externally, the nose wheel light does not fully turn with the steering but part of the model stays facing forward.

Please add a screenshot or video of the issue occurring.
The PC-12’s pilot direct vision window does not open - not sure if this is a bug or was just never modeled, which would be a shame considering similar DV windows open on Carenado’s other aircraft.

The cabin cargo door has no ‘clunky’ opening sound. Nor does the outside world sound (wind, birds chirping etc) increase in volume like it correctly does with the entry/exit door.

The entry/exit door has no ‘clunk’ sounds either. It does correctly increase the outside environment sound though.

These lack of sounds are also on the outside too when operated externally, both cabin doors are the same.

Same for the engine compartment, no sound effect.

As the OP has found, the nose wheel light shines correctly when tracking straight…

Turn the nose and the light appears to stay modeled straight forward while the actual illuminated part of the light turns with the wheel.

This happens in both directions.

Additionally at night or in low light the landing/taxi light ‘beam’ does not turn with the illuminated light.
