Multi-coloured ground at night

Featured Replies

I have only recently noticed that when landing at night, with landing lights or taxi lights on, that the ground is a mulit-coloured pattern, not a solid runway/taxiway texture. Maybe I have only just noticed it because most of my flights are during daylight.Does anyone else get this and is there a cure?TIA

You might be running FS2004 in 16-bit color palette mode - try 32-bit instead for better color reproduction.

Running in 32bit mode Janne.

Shoot, that makes the problem much trickier :/ In fact, I can't think of anything short of overheating or driver problems and those most likely aren't it. Maybe someone else has run into this problem?

After talking with someone else I've found the culprit.I was using a 3rd party spot.bmp (not sure which one). All I need to do now is find one that illuminates the ground well enough without shining through the pavement, so to speak.
