January 22, 201412 yr Hello fellow simmers, Recently i've experienced my first blue screen in FSX with windows 7 64bit after lots of years since i've upgraded from WinXP. I've launched fsx through Shade as i was doing so many years, a blue screen popped up secs after the click and the system restarted.The second attempt to load FSX was successful, but after i clicked "Fly Now", bam CTD. It appeared that the sky_xxxxx. bmps located in the main texture folder that are injected with Shade, were corrupted causing visualfx.dll to ctd. I restored the original bmps and problem is now solved. I noticed a strange problem though at the main menu that i didn't have before. No matter what time i choose to make a flight, the aircraft preview window at the main menu shows only daytime. When i press "Fly Now" the sim loads successfully, so is the time i've selected (night, dawn, noon, dusk), but the preview window shows only day and doesn't change no matter what i do. Rebuilt fsx.cfg with no results. Any help would be appreciated!
