Black, flashing rectangles where water meets land

Featured Replies

On my FSX where ever water meets land there are big black rectangles flashing all over the coastline.Does anyone know what these are and how to stop them?Thanks Bill, how can I fix the wave animation effect?

Looks like the texture sheet that the wave animation effect uses is corrupted or missing on your system.

Perhaps the Gauge Recovery freeware may help?

Happy Flying,

Hi there,Not sure if you are running UTX, or if this will help but, if you are running UTX, try this:- exit FSX,- run UTX's configuration utility and then close the utility- re-open FSX and see if that helpedThe black rectangles are indeed supposed to have been the intended shore wave effects that seem in some way to have been corrupted in your installation.Hope this helps, Rusty

I thought UTX only altered coastlines, not the waves. <unsure>
Not really- take a peek at the following screen capture of UTX's configuratin utility wherein wave preferences/options may be selected and chosen:UTX-screen_terrain-waves.jpgHope this helps, Rusty
