Parts of water are black

[clocki 2]

Hey all,

I just installed ORBX Global+Vector into P3D. Prior that I did not made any other changes and configured FSX to be used as dual sim (according to simmershome.de instrcutions)

But now after ORBX installation some lakes and parts of rivers are black. But not all as you can see in the picture.

Turn off winter ice textures in the vector configuration tool. This is a known (and still not fixed) bug in P3D.

Thanks very much. Thats seems to be the solution on a quick test flight.

 

But very strange to have the black textures while flying in spring/summer time. Anyway....not needing the ice textures as they sometimes look also strange if you have big rivers like the Themse,Rhein,Elbe,Moldau or even bigger lakes and they are frozen while flying with -1°C

 

Thank you very much

 

PS: Wanted to give you a thumb up but it seems the function is disabled on avsim.com

Thanks, I had the same problem and was driving me crazy. Read this post and it solved my problems, no more black water.

Hi Gents,

Confirming same problem in V4. Unchecking winter textures ("Water" tab) solved.

After installing ORBX Vector the same problem.

Unchecking frozen water in vector solved the problem.
