outrun74 0 Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Hi, I have been using Gibraltar X for a month or so, I notice when I fly the Aerosoft F16 or Wilco Airbus, sometimes the papi lights disappear. It also seems like the runway texture disappears also. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks, Outrun74 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Fletcher 570 Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Hello Outrun74, Might be due to system overload. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James A 39 Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Sounds like a graphics card/driver issue to me..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outrun74 0 Posted May 31, 2011 Author Share Posted May 31, 2011 Hi, this is the only add on airport I have purchased that does it(i have heathrow extreme, uk airports, flytampa, cote dazur, etc) My system is a phenom quadcore 3.2ghz, NVIDIA GTX 260 with latest drivers, 4gb ram and I dont think its under particularly heavy loads as this is no AI traffic in the area. Just before they disappear, black boxes appear around the lights... As much as I like this airport, If I cant get the PAPI lights working, this airport is useless to me (particularly as Gibraltar does have ILS!) I have tried: 1.Disabling the road traffic does not solve it 2.Tried the highmemfix - issue persists Is there anything else I can try? Can I copy over using the default FSX PAPI lights or something? Thanks, Outrun 74 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Fletcher 570 Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Hello Outrun, You say sometimes, do you know under what circumstances they disappear as I flew the F-16 and all looks fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outrun74 0 Posted May 31, 2011 Author Share Posted May 31, 2011 Hi Shaun, It has happened to me a couple of times on touch and go's with the F16 for runway 09. It happened every time yesterday after taking off in the Wilco a320, when I come back the lights and runway texture have disappeared on runway 27.. I am going to try a few more tests tonight to try and isolate the cause. Kind regards, Outrun74 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer OPabst 2091 Posted May 31, 2011 Developer Share Posted May 31, 2011 How did you set the Autogen Slider? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outrun74 0 Posted May 31, 2011 Author Share Posted May 31, 2011 Autogen is off Kind regards, Outrun74 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer OPabst 2091 Posted May 31, 2011 Developer Share Posted May 31, 2011 Then please read this pinned post here in the forum and set the Autogen to spare, but not to OFF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outrun74 0 Posted June 1, 2011 Author Share Posted June 1, 2011 Thanks Oliver, I tried a couple of circuits last night with autogen on "sparse" and the problem did not happen! I will do more tests tonight . I would never have thought it would be related with this setting, I have always prefered autogen off (my vfr photo scenery disables this on install) FSX has some strange quirks!
