When I fly either the CRJ or the Beaver I can't see out of any of the windows. It is just all black. I've heard of flying blind but come on. Everything is normal with the ultralite and the baron. Any one know what gives?

..it's a beta version. It's expected to have bugs. Just chill out and be grateful for what you got.

And I'd like it if people read the documentation.

Quote:

§ After changing time of day or location in the simulation, terrain textures occasionally won’t update, or some textures will change to black or bright colors. To resolve the issue, restart a flight. Cycling views will also occasionally resolve this problem (press S).

Just change the view a few times, or try reloading the aircraft.

We're (I was) not being smart assed. I was simply making a statement.

It could be many things... hardware may do that.

I have not seen the issue here but I know the sim will do some strange things if you try to run it in Window mode or make settings changes.

Dude, chill for a bit. Only one of us have made a smart@55 comment so don't judge the whole forum on the actions of one man here. Everyone here is welcomed with open. You are free to come and go as you please and no one is stopping you from doing that.

Anyways, time to be serious. From what you decribed, it seems to me that you have either a graphics card issue or maybe it's just a bug since the demo is still a demo. Have you updated you video drivers yet? Have you installed the latest updates for Windows? Make sure you have those.

All in all, you should be fine if all that you experience is just the blackouts.

Change your view a couple of times, that should solve the problem, like people said prior to you're little outburst. Wink
