No shadows and PAPIs blinking **SOLVED**

[Nepomuk]

Hello!
I got two problems in P3D v4 @CYVR:
- There are no shadows cast by SimObjects
- PAPIs are blinking at low altitude

Could you please confim the issues? Or maybe it´s related to my settings?

Best regards
Stephan

- There are no shadows cast by SimObjects

Try to enable the "No shadow flagged content" option.

- PAPIs are blinking at low altitude

This is entirely normal, and it's the FAROS system:

Hello Umberto!
Enabling the "No shadow flagged content" did not solve the issue. Shadows are still not visible on the ground. They are there at other 3rd party airports.

Ok, the FAROS system is a really nice feature. Could you please confim it is actually active at CYVR, as it isn´t mentioned on the charts nor the FSDT manual.

Best regards

Got it!
SimObjects receive shadows checkbox needs to be set. This wasn´t the case in V3.
Now everything is fine!
