P3D v3 Disappearing lights when watching at them

Recommended Posts

Hello dear forum members, recently i've noticed a weird thing in my P3D, which may have been before, but i didn't see that. So, the problem is about night flying. When flying at night time, there are lots of lights, traffic, scenery, etc.., and, when I look at these lights straight, I don't see them until i come about 6-9 miles to them. BUT, when I look at them with my "side vision", those lights are nice a clear. Here's a pic of this thing happening. Hope for your help. Thank you

From experience, runway lights and night lighting problems have often times been the result of graphic card drivers. Nvidia in particular. Try a different graphics driver. I haven't had that problem in the last year or so, but for a while before that the problem was fairly wide spread.

I thought it was just to do with LOD within P3D?

Are you sure it's not random clouds interfering?

Absolutely, I've tried to discover this thing many times, and every time it happens. Whenever the object is straight ahead of me, it can't be seen lighting, but as soon as I turn my head away to look forward, I can nicely see the object lighting with my "side vision"
