FSX Acceleration Stock airport issue

Featured Replies

At some airports I see the airport buildings disappearing / reappearing (ie. "popping" in  / out).

I have read that this was a known, unsolved issue when the FSX Accel was released.  I have

NOT noticed the issue at many of the places that I like to fly to.  But does anyone know of

a cure for this disease ( other than installing P3DV4 :rolleyes: ) .  I noticed the issue tonight

while flying into OEPA .

Best to all,

Hi Ken,

Just did a short test flight around Stock/default (OEPA - Hafa Al-Batin) FSX-MS with Orbx Global base textures, tried a few different views, external and cockpit panning but could not see any disappearing autogen buildings. It can sometimes occur with view clipping zoom level, but can also occur when resources are struggling. Since this area/airfield would not be classed as a resource heavy scene, I can't think what might be causing Agen to appear and disappear (pop). Essentially the airfield is surrounded by desert sands with little or no nearby autogen except for the city of Hafr Al-Batin which is some distance from the airfield. 

Cheers Jethro

Thank you for your ideas on this Jethro. Like you,  I am surprised to see this behavior in the desert with so few buildings present.

Also it occurs when I have loads of VAS free and frame rates are near my set limit of 30fps.  I use the Orbx Global Base textures

also.  I have noticed while in external view mode that if I pan the view up and down, I can duplicate the issue >> the buildings will

disappear / reappear at the same point while panning vertically.  Better stated >  the buildings will disappear while panning UP and

then re-appear while panning DN,   and always very near to the same panning view point.

Hi guys,

I also have this issue for a long time, I believe it was discussed in this thread:

 

However, searching forums for any possible solution did get me anywhere.. I do fly FSX-Acceleration, and don't use autogen because I dislike it (have autogen completely off), prefer just terrain textures. And I suffer from the disappearing/reappearing airport building all the time. Its just a view angle that does that.... Because the endless issue I got to the point that I spent more time with FS9...

Any possible solutions to this FSX issue?
