Flickering Clouds in Opus

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

Since get Opus I have been flying low and slow and really enjoying the program. Now I'm getting into the Superbug F/A-18 and am getting into some pretty high altitude flying. What I'm experiencing is when there are lots clouds down around the mountains, where the clouds intersect the sides of the mountains, peaks, gorges, etc., they flicker quite a bit at the intersect points. Is there anything that can be done about this or is it just an FSX anomaly. I never noticed this with AS2012, but then again I had my density levels pretty low and never had anywhere near the amount of weather going on as I do in Opus.

 

Thanks for any tips

You will get that regardless of the weather engines. Graphics.

Hi Cheryl,

 

Merry Christmas to you and the Opus team. Yeah I was pretty sure it was an unfixable FSX issue, just wanted to be sure. Would you have a link by chance to the Flight1 thread? Wishing you guys a successful 2013!

 

Thanks!

 

Chris

Hi Chris

 

I am not on my computer at the moment but you can do a search on our flight1 forum for 'flickering clouds' or 'polygon' and the topic should come up. I think I have answered a post on AVSIM before about the same issue. I will post a link next time I am on my computer if you can't find it.

 

Cheers

Cheryl

Has to do with how the clouds interact with the terrain and elevation.
