Hello everyone First,I would like to say congratulations to Avsim staff for their excellent website which I have been visiting for the past four years.This is my first post,so bare with me.I notice that I have a small problem when flying,the scenery where ever you are have white buildings popping up now the then.What causes this,any insight would be much appreciated.

Hi again.Thanks for your feedback Scott,much appreciated.However,the problem is related to Autogen which I can't figure out.It only applies to the US and Canada which I've upgraded using Ultimate terrain from Flight One.Currently,I got Vista Australis (which is superb considering its freeware),Ground Environment Pro and Ultimate Terrain (both US and Canada) I might of deleted some textures but not scenery based.I'm scratching my head on this one.My PCAMD 3500 (939 SOCKET) (overclocked to 2570MHZ)ASUS A8N-SLI DELUXE190G SEAGATE SATA 2 HD2GB CRUCIAL BALLISTIX TRACER DDR PC4000 MEMORYNVIDIA GEFORCE XFX 6800GS XXX GAMER 256MB PCI EXPRESSX-FI MUSIC EXTREME SOUNDCARDVIEWSONIC 19" VX924
