FSX F16 white screens

Featured Replies

After watching the Thunderbirds at the Dayton Air Show recently, I downloaded and installed Bob Chicilo's FSX update of the Kirk Olsson F-16. What a sweet aircraft! Works great after some cockpit and panel tweaking except for one thing. Whenever I encounter a fog or fog-like texture (like a ground haze at an airport) the entire screen goes to white, except for certain artifacts (like spray from wheels on wet pavement), in all views but the regular cockpit view--see attached jpeg. If I change the weather to clear skies, no problems. The condition seems to prevail in more than one incarnation of the aircraft, including the Tbird and the RDAF E-174 (clean) with the drogue chute and its default panel. When I switch to a different aircraft (the default FSX Baron 58) in the same saved flight, with the weather set to something other than clear skies, no problem; no white screens, all foggy like it should be. Any others have the same problem? Any ideas out there of a way to get it to work with weather other than clear--like a setting in the aircraft.cfg? I've tried a variety of different settings, including turning off cockpit tooltips and flight tips and nothing seems to work except for the clear weather fix.Thanks for any help.

I finally figured this out. Turn light bloom off in the display settings. Also occurs with several other converted FS9 aircraft (including SR71A). Problem even worse with Sp2.
