What Makes Scenery/Aircraft "jump" on the Ground?

Featured Replies

Hello,

 

I have seen this for years - what causes scenery items and aircraft to "jump" up and down at airports? It happens a lot

and it seems to bother a few of my FSX aircraft like my Vans RV7. The items always come to rest again but I cannot figure out what is

causing this.

 

Thanks in advance,

Me and my friend seemed to get this when we had just flight's traffic x installed. It would happen randomly at different airports. It is a bit weird because like the whole fleet at the airport will jump up and down at the same time, it's looks funny yet annoying .

 

I don't seem to get this anymore since I upgraded my ai traffic to my traffic x recently . It's a lot more reliastix and more detailed than just flights version.

 

Do you have a third party ai add on installed ?

 

My aircraft often get the hiccups when I cycle through an external camera and back to the VC again...annoying but usually harmless.

 

I always figured it was just another loveable and unavoidable foible of a rather venerable application absolutely creaking at the seams with add-ons and mods.

 

...Can't say I have ever noticed the scenery or ground objects following suit though!

Cheers!

You should check if lowering your mesh resolution helps. I temporarily set mesh resolution from settings to near full, which caused that kind of behavior all time when I changed view. Then I lowered it back to 10 and have this kind of behavior very rarely, mainly when I change to AI traffic view.
