A while ago I disabled DX10 in FSX options, in order to see the textures in an aircraft I downloaded. Problem was, without DX10, FSX would freeze for 10-15 seconds every 10-15 seconds, usually on final approach. I read somewhere that if I put UIAutomatianCoredll in the FSX main folder, it would cure the freezes. Anyway it didn't. I have now reinstalled DX10, no more freezes but cant see any textures in some add-on aircraft, and the shimmering taxiways are I know, a much reported side effect with DX10. Has anybody else had this problem?

In DX10 in FSX everybody sees shimmering runways/taxiways ("z-buffer fighting") and yes, some aircraft unfortunately sport textures not suited for DX10. That's why many of us are waiting for MS Flight and hoping Microsoft finish their DX10 implementation (DX10 is just "preview" in FSX...)Cheers,- jahman.
