Buildings shimmering and this.....
« on: March 11, 2013, 07:43:14 am »
I flew from Whitehorse to CYVR and on approach I noticed the buildings shimmering and no textures on the runways,
this was also one of the few times I didn't get an OOM. I didn't see this until I was off the rwy. Orbx was turned off,
the only other things running was Active sky and AI Traffic at 20%. I didn't even notice the little stutter at 9.2 miles when CYVR loads.
No wonder I had trouble staying on the rwy ;D

This has been discussed several times on the forum too, and happens with other sceneries too: it has nothing to do with CYVR, and it caused by a problem or a bug of your video driver, likely a problem with video memory corruption. It's either the driver, or it's a setting in the driver, or it's a tweak, or it's just video memory corruption.

- First try to reset your video driver settings to default. Be sure you don't use "Transparency Antialiasing" (or "Adaptive Anti-aliasing" ).

- If that doesn't work, try to update your video driver too.

- If that doesn't work, try to reset your %APPDATA%\Microsoft\FSX\FSX.CFG file, to have FSX rebuild a new one with default settings

- Be sure you apply the HIGHMEMFIX tweak to the FSX.CFG, you can enabled it with the Addon Manager too.
