Thread: Runway markings flickering

    Default Runway markings flickering

    Since I have been running DX10 preview my runway lines flicker all the time and sometimes entire runway panels go blue with the Flightsimulator logo on it. Any ideas how this can be fixed ?

    I can't. DX10 preview is so fantastic I can't turn it off. Once I saw that, it was staying, no Q about that. So forget about ever leaving DX10 preview. It ain't gonna happen. ever. NOT an option. I even left my beloved ATR because I couldn't leave DX10 Preview. Not an option I'm afraid.

    The flickering is due to DX10. Either put up with the flickering or turn it off. Seeing that #2 is not an option then you'll have to chose #1.
    Thanks,

    Yes because of using different .dll's with DX10 Light Bloom is better and frame rates are a bit higher.

    But besides flashing graphics at some runway intersections, you will find some flashing buildings or structures and most important (for me) disturbed outside lights (strobes,taxi,landing) on several aircraft: in some view angles the lights disapear or come 'disconnected' from the airplane.

    It's just a DX10 'preview', never finisched properly: we had to wait until Flight Simulator 11 !

    Unfortunately big boss Microsoft decided that the flight sim community didn't need that and created Flight .............
