Did we ever find a cure for the black squares in FS9?

Featured Replies

Greetings,

 

I've used Tileproxy in all three major sims (FS9, FSX, and P3D) trying to find that ultimate setup. The best experience by far to me was FS9 because we didn't have the fiber_frame issue that shows up in FSX/P3D. I was able to tune FSX pretty good at one point, but the decreasing frame rates near the airports really broke it down for me. P3D I found was just a little bit worse than FSX. I 'wish' we could all just run unlimited frames like we did in FS9!

 

Then I started thinking... why not go back to FS9? So I found the old CDs and reinstalled it to give it a try. It was sooooooo smooth... but then it quickly came back to me... the dreaded occasional black square.

 

Did we ever find a solid cure for that? I read a few places you can reinstall this or set that... but all of these were temporary fixes it seemed. I read over on the megescenery forums that there was an issue with a scenery.dll file that triggered black squares, and they even had an updated version of it for download. However I 'think' this was for FSX only but I will go back and double check.

 

Anyway to cut my rambling short... here we are in 2014... did we ever find a way to eliminate the occasional black square in FS9?

Hi bro, have you found that patched .dll file?
