I'm not a newcomer to Fly but have been away from flight sims for a while. I now have a pretty strong computer and after getting FS2002 decided to reinstall Fly II. I followed the directions for all the patches and it runs, but the outside view of the world is just light blueness that flashes. The cockpit panels look fine.

Scott,set this in the render.ini file: vertexIndexFormat=0If i remember right, this causes problems when its set to '1'Hope that helps.Peace!Michael

Thanks Mike, that did the trick. :)Scott GrayCypress, CA

Way to go Mike.blake

Ati Raedeon products, Have alway`s had this type of problem, But I have found out ... If you uninstall Fly!II, Somehow it retains the original settings. That way you dont have to adjust your Render.ini File again Jeff Akins

Great it helped!Happy Flying!Michael (EDDL)
