Holy hell, those spikes are really tall! I'll take a look. Surely I would have seen those monsters by now.

Yes, I was at more than 30000 feet.

Spikes appear occasionally when the scene cannot be rendered completely.  We use to get them a lot on the old computer systems with FSX as people would increase their settings to nearly max and the system could not handle it.

 

EDIT:  Might add other discussions regarding this "issue" - http://www.avsim.com/topic/409541-giant-spikesneedles-in-fsx/

 

Some say the BufferPool tweak does this.  I agree.  It could be other tweaks in the config too.

 

Best regards,

Jim

I can confirm that there are several anomalies in this area.

 

One of these anomalies go up to 73000 FT! Somehow NASA (and me) missed that in our review of the data. I'll get this fixed. Thanks for the report.

Cheers Daniel!

 

Thanks for the wise words Jim. :cool:

 

Mike aye, up the Irons! Thanks to Ed Force One's blog I'm flying to the same airports as Maiden did on their Book of Lost Souls tour. The beauty of flight sims!

I think these defects are still there and need to be corrected in the next patch as well. I'm currently rounding up major artifacts that stand out.

Hi Daniel,

I was just doing a flight in this area today and noticed these spikes too.  Have they been patched in a release I have missed?

Great contribution to the community, by the way!  Can't thank you enough for this effort.  Been using it from day one!!
