Dissapearing Aircraft

Featured Replies

whenever I go to ground view, or flyby view when I zoom out, my airplane dissapears.. The lights still appear, but the aircraft just dissapears.. Its not very good for taking screenshots and I dont know what to do about it, or why its happening.. any ideas?

michaelb15, Is this happening to one or all of your aircraft? You might need to check the aircraft.cfg and make sure the model assigned to your plane is identified and matches what is actually in the model folder. Otherwise Flightsim does not know what to wrap the textures around. I have seen this in some downloads where the model.mdl is there but the model.cfg is missing or has no text in it.

it happens to all aircraft.. I think its a loading issue, because when im close up in a normal spot view, or a zoomed in tower view, it shows up fine. It happens when the camera seems to be more then a few NM away, the plane dissapears, as if my computer was trying to save memory or somthing, only loading aircraft within a certain distance. including my own.
