May 7, 20179 yr FSX Acceleration/ DX10 preview mode with FTX/Orbx Global, etc. Just did a fresh/clean re-install and noticed everywhere I go, hundreds of black squares appearing on the ground near streets, presumably where streets lights/ etc. I did some trial and error, and when I deactivate the following files, they boxes disappear, as well as all lighting! Any help would be much appreciated! Orbx_StreetLightV_NA.BGL Orbx_StreetLightV_Nguid.BGL 3D_Light_NEW_DDN_1_5.BGL 3D_Light_NEW_SDN4.BGL All the above are located in C:/Programs Files(x86)/Microsoft/ Microfoft Flight Simulator X/Scenery/Global/ Scenery folder.

I removed the files, squares go away, however at night there is no lighting at all. A DX10 compatibility error? I'm at a loss...I do have the DX10 fixer btw David J.

May 7, 20179 yr Author Yes, thank you I read that and tried what was mentioned, which does get rid of the squares, yet removes all night lighting. David J.

I Uninstalled whatever was there and reinstalled the correct libraries. Everything is working fine. Thank you. David J.
