CYVR goes black after about 3 seconds
« on: April 22, 2013, 03:04:42 pm »
HI,

I've checked the forums but haven't seen this problem yet or maybe overlooked it.  But all of the scenery around Vancouver is black.  I do the option of "restarting Couatl" but that only fixes it initially and it reverts back to the black textures. Any suggestions???? I reinstalled the scenery thinking that would help but it doesn't help.

Thanks in advance,

Gary

Nobody has ever reported this problem so far. It might be related to video memory corruption or exhaustion, due to wrong or too high settings or wrong tweaks.

 - 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, that's the only setting that really needs to be applied.
