Large Black Box

Featured Replies

Have any of you experienced large black box being displayed in some of the missions. They seem to be positioned over locations related to mission goals. I wonder is it glitch in the FSX program or my PC.Although they help by indicating where to head for they make completing the mission impossible or at least very dificult.I have attached a couple of screen shots.Any suggestions on how to remove them?

>Are they full of stars?"Something beautiful is going to happen" - LOL :)It looks to me to some shader problem. Do you have the same problem with other games? Try upgrading your GFX drivers and turn on/off some features in FSX.

Dood,That ain't no glitch.That's the MONOLITH from 2001 A Space Odessey.I'd recommend you not fly into it or you'll enter a weird dimension and instantly be transported to Jupiter.No amount of flaps would save you then, bub.

In some of the missions we used a large invisible cube as an object to attach effects to. In the case of your screenshot it is the object which the flare effects and campfire are attached to.It appears that something about your PC configuration is not able to render the cube as transparent. I'm no expert on shaders, so I can't say if it's that or something else.
