[Resolved] AI Nav lights issue

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I just switched from FSX-SE to P3D V4 as I was bored by FSX issues since last major windows 10 update. So far so good, performance are much better with P3D !

Anyway I'm facing issue with AI airplane NAV/strobe/beacon lights ; display is weird (refer to pic)

Config:

  • P3D V4.1
  • UT live
  • FTX global
  • Rex 4 with soft cloud
  • Ai lights reborn
  • Freemesh
  • ASUS PRIME Z370-A/8700K ovclk 4.9/RX480/W10 FCU

I rebuilt Shaders in folder in C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Local\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\Shaders

I re-downloader default Shader folder via client update: D:\Prepar3D\ShadersHLSL

I removed AMD adrenaline software and only installed the drivers.

Here are my settings:

Despite the different things I tried I have not been able to get ride of the issue...

Does somebody would have a suggestion ?

Thanks,

Marc

Hi Marc,

I am afraid the pictures are too small and I am unable to see the problem, can you describe what do you mean by the lights are weird?

Can you please use https://imgur.com/upload to post the picture instead and take pictures during night? the AI Lights Reborn Freeware is designed to display navigation lights as real world operations and accordingly these will be very difficult to be seen during the day.

please refer to :https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/527918-nav-lighting/

Bets Regards,
Simbol

If so refer to:  https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/527890-what-can-cause-this-issue-with-the-particles-effect-and-with-the-strobenav-lights/#comment-3780631 

This is a problem with your AMD drivers, try to remove any AMD software (AMD Crymson, AMD Catalyst, etc.) as the issue relies with the way the AMD software is interacting with P3D, basically it is trying to control the GPU performance but unfortunately this cause artifacts with the particle DirectX redraw under P3D, you are not the only that has experience this with AMD video cards, if you read the topic above you will see both users were able to fix the problem by re-configuring the drivers and removing any AMD software present in their systems.

Hi Marc, see my previous answer.

You are experiencing DirectX artifacts, well known problem with AMD latest drivers and software, check you program files and remove anything that says AMD.

That's the problem I'm facing !

I removed AMD adrenaline soft and used AMD cleaning utility and re installed drivers (AMD minimal setup) and only installed video drivers on custom setup but it doesn't make the trick...

I don't know if is possible to download drivers only without passing via AMD soft ; I disabled W10 auto driver update because it was causing issue with intel graphic drivers...

Can you tell me your video card model? in any case try the following:

1) Don't use any AMD software, uninstall any software from AMD.

2) Reboot your PC.

3) Let Windows to install the GPU AMD drivers.

4) Reboot your PC.

5) Open Program files (again), find any software with the name AMD and Remove it.

6) Reboot your PC.

7) Open P3D and test.

I'm using an RX480. Windows did not want to install the driver, and after several tries, finally got it work after using "Device cleaner" tool.

Windows installed the driver, relaunched P3D and it worked ! Finally ! It seems that frame rate is a bit lower, anyway it's enough.

Thanks,

Marc
