Do you have DX10 checked in your settings without using the DX10 fixer?  You may want to

 

tone your language down a bit.

on VATSIM - so you're kind of running in a multiplayer environment? Try offline, and different airports.. Does changing the aircraft make a difference? Oh, and WELCOME!

You'll need to be more specific. What airports, default or add on?

 

What settings are you using beside the one setting you listed?

 

Also, default airports don't have visible gate numbers and not all addon airports have gate numbers either.

I have default scenery, I've used to see taxi signs on my other computer, but when I moved to another, I can't... 

I have everything on almost highest graphics.

Give an example of 1 airport and I am more than willing to take a look at it!

Just curious, when you say "moved" was it a complete reinstall or did you just copy the files over?

Reinstalled.

e.g EGCC, Manchester Airport. If you need pictures, reply and I'll post.

I just did a look around EGCC and found no markings, on the ground or gate areas, with gate numbers but there

 

are plenty of taxiway signs.  Is your Scenery Complexity  slider at it's max setting?

The Scenery Complexity and Autogen are both on Ultra high.

Good picture of the problem!  Does this happen at all airports or just at EGCC?
