westway Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Hopeless Problem with my FSX, I am getting "junk" when I open FSX, aircraft with only interior showing or no aircraft at all only the ground shadow of aircraft. When I attempt to change scenery I get scenery that shows up a "mess", see attachments. I have no idea what caused this to happen and I have no idea how to fix it, but as of now I can't use FSX without these issues appearing. Hoping someone can help me correct the problem.

dogdish Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 That second picture almost looks like video card artifacts when over-clocking. Does this happen in other games? If so, possibly damaged video card memory.

napamule2 Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 It looks like texture tearing due to overheating of video card, or cpu. I see you are running Aero which might be a problem. I also see you have an Nvidia card. Perhaps you got the wrong (Beta?) video driver? If it's a new FSX install on a new computer did you update your chip set (Moboard) drivers first? It's not a terminal problem. It can be fixed. Just have to run DxDiagnostic (DxDiag) to find what is 'wrong'. Go from there. Or undo last to first until it is fixed (ie: Orbx scenery and weather programs). Good luck.

zswobbie1 Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Also maybe bring Graphics sliders down a bit, & untick DX10 preview? Robin Cape Town, South Africa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westway Posted May 27, 2016 Author Share Posted May 27, 2016 What I did was several things, I reinstalled "all" my ORBX scenery, cleaned the registry and cache, lowered my graphics settings from high to medium, set my FXT setting from Global to North America and did a troubleshoot compatibility and reset it to recommended setting. Now having said all that, FSX tends to have a mind of it's own and I have found the same to be true with ORBX scenery, so I am keeping my fingers crossed for nowPleased to hear that, but what was the solution?
