"Distorted" panel texture PMDG when using flood light

[aktorsyl 93]

It's always done that for me as well. I believe it's because PMDG uses a new panel texture for the "lighted" panel instead of an actual light source? Or something like that.

I've never tried to disable HDR to test it - I'll try that tonight and see if it helps.

It still happens on my system with HDR off.

Have you tried disabling mipmapping already? I'm going to try that tonight when I'm home.

Don't know if it effects quality a lot though.

You guys aren't going to get rid of it. It is a quirk of images rendered using GDI+. Got something to do with the interpolation modes used. I am not sure if it occurs on their newer aircraft like the 777 or 747. I ran into the same behavior when I used GDI+ for the cockpit lighting on the Milviz F-86 and 407 (an attempt to get rid of it was what led to DX11 although other factors were involved there as well).
