Opaque Propeller on Beaver - any suggestions?!

Recommended Posts

I have just begun flying the Beaver, and found that the prop is so opaque that I cannot see through - which makes it pretty near impossible to see the runway or make a decent landing.  I have restarted the sim, but the problem exists for default aircraft as well as add-on liveries.

Has anyone else seen this problem, or found a solution to it?  Any suggestions will be welcome!

TIA

I have not experienced such thing. Maybe another add-on interfering?

I don't know about it being totally opaque - that does not sound right . HOWEVER, the props in MSFS are generally quite unrealistic. When running at normal RPM's they should be nearly invisible, not a clearly visible disc.

There is a great mod that fixes this with all the default and many 3rd party pay ware aircraft here: VR Friendly Prop Mod MULTI PASS! » Microsoft Flight Simulator

It fixes the Beaver. A simple Community Folder Drop in.

SOLVED - made the three prop blur textures more transparent ...

I can't explain how the textures got to be so opaque, but they had lost all their transparency, hence the problem with pilot visuals.

@raptyrone I notice that mod is a fix for VR Users, not sure if the OP is such or not he doesnt say.

I havn't noticed a problem in the Beaver or any other aeroplane as a non VR player.

It seems to change the prop visuals in general, I am not a VR user, but I like the result.

Strange. I downloaded it and installed it locks msfs on the start screen. Removed it and back to normal.

This mod works for normal monitor displays too, not just VR. I don’t use VR and I am using this mod. It really makes a big difference (improvement).
