With Steve Parson's kind permission I have included the Global lights patch into the shader patches collection. Fixes the FTX Global lights black rectangle background problem in DX10 preview. If you missed the scenery fixer, Steve has very kindly allowed the code to be added to shader patches collection v3.2.2 becoming v3.2.3. The file "shader_release_v3.2.3.zip" can be found in the Misc. section. Exactly the same as v3.2.2 but includes the Global Lights fix, default on.

Steve

PS: Many thanks to Steve Parsons (aka "StevFx") for this freeware package.

 

His payware package of far more comprehensive fixes is an outstanding "must-have" IMHO; I hope he resumes making it available for purchase in the near future.
