May 25, 20197 yr I have FSX with Acceleration and a high end system. All seems to be running well except in external views the plane is always missing parts. It never used to do this but is doing it now after completely reinstalling FSX. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Tom
May 25, 20197 yr Administrators One thought only.....since reinstalling FSX did you remember to uncheck DX10 preview in your Settings/Customize/Graphics area?

May 25, 20197 yr Author Charlie, My DX10 was on. Thanks for helping. It did fix that exterior view on some planes but not all. The Carenado ones are resisting...grin Thanks for your help. Tom
May 25, 20197 yr Administrators Glad it worked out! Can't believe that a Carenado aircraft requires DX10 to be on! Maybe reinstalling them might be the fix?

Charlie, I didn't mean Carenado needed DX10. When I turned it off it still didn't help the exterior views. They are still missing parts. Tom
May 25, 20197 yr Administrators Very confusing! Is it only the Carenado aircraft that have missing parts?

Since I did a total reinstall of FSX I am just starting to reinstall aircraft. I may not get to it until tomorrow. Thanks for your help. Tom

May 31, 20197 yr I also have a similar oddity. In PDMG 737NGX, when moving my eye view point sideways to outside when in the virtual cockpit, I can rotate my point of view - but the wings do not connect to the fuselage. The wings and engines are there - and then nothing. I don't have DX10 on. Andrew Gold

If you switch to spot or locked spot you should see the whole body of the aircraft. Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
June 2, 20197 yr I see, and thank you, though I have to report that in my 'partial' external view from the extended VC view I do see parts of the external fuselage, including (if on the ground, the open forward door. Andrew Andrew Gold
