Aircraft's wheels sinking into the ground

Featured Replies

I've only tested 3 airports. KSFO (FlightBeam), KSJC (Imaginesim), and KRNO (Default). I had the PMDG 747's wheels sink through the ground.

And, in ChasePlane, I can go through part of the ground and see the 747's wheel chocks.

Also, the FlySimWare LearJet 35A also sunk through the ground at KSJC.

I did have this in P3D v3, so I'm no too worried. But, I never had this happen at KSFO. 

At the default KRNO, the wheels were fine.

Even Ultaimate Traffic Live and GSX had the wheels sink at KSFO.

I had this and it was tied to a couple shadow options,

 

I then deleted my shaders and it fixed it even with the offending shadow options turned on.

Is it the ShadersHLSL folder you are referring to?

No don’t delete that one! 

 

“C:\Users\<YOU>\AppData\Local\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\Shaders is the one you want.”

Maybe delete shaders, delete default flight, and check for duplicate afcad files. If running Orbx Vector or an Orbx region duplicate afcad files in Orbx have to be deactivated.

Actually, it was because whenever I teleport or warp (using GSX) to an airport position, it for some reason is offset, and sinks me through the ground. However, I used slew mode to make my plane level, so now the wheels are fine.DrFhEQyVsAARccK.jpg:large
