wolfko Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Hi Mikee, you'd better ask in one of the the support forums rahter than in the General Discussion forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holger Sandmann Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Hi there, I still think some problem with the graphics card driver or you shader files is the most likely culprit causing the odd "z-fighting" (confusion within the display engine which texture panel should be displayed as closest to the viewer). If it was an issue with the add-ons themselves then everyone would see it. Here's another thought though: have you used any automatic texture converters or manual conversion processes on your add-ons?

lexandro Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Anti-ailising mode's at fault imo. Seen that kinda thing before in other games when AA is resolving layers back to front for performance. Check gpu driver settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't use any of the above that you mentioned ! This happened or I think that happened after I installed and updated my NVidia Driver to the latest Version (355.82) or most probably , the version before that ! I tried to Revert back to a previous Version , the One that I was Sure that everything was Ok ! But unfortunately nothing happened . I have no Idea what caused the Problem .

jsapair Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Mikee...for what it's worth and after the fact...I only DL the latest Nvidia driver if it specifically pertains to something I've got. Most of those updates are for specific games. You don't need them unless you have that particular game. You don't need to DL every update unless it pertains to you. Otherwise, leave well enough alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks , Mike As you know I'm with Holger thinking that it is a problem with your graphic card as you already let P3D recontruct the shader folder. When you reinstalled an older version of the Nvidia driver did you purge the existing newer driver out of the machine first (with the awful VGA screen in between) or just reinstalled the older version on top ? Also have you overclocked your GC ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am doing a Complete Prepared3DV2.5 (With all ORBX Regions and Airport's) Reinstallation Hopefully this will fix my problem plus some other problems. I will let you know as soon as i finish my Installation . Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinsue Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 I suggest trying something very basic and either rename or delete the P3D.cfg just in case that has been corrupted. just in case you can't find the .cfg file, it's at C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v2\Prepar3D.cfg. P3D will automatically rebuild a new file when it starts. At least then you know you're starting of with a clean config file to troubleshoot your problem.

mikee Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 Hello guys ! Just did a Fresh Prepared3DV2.5 Installation ! Everything is Working Perfect now ( I have No Idea What Caused the Problem ... Maybe a Non Orbx Or Non Prepared3D Compatible Scenery ) Thank you all for your help and assistance I appreciated It .

Just to let you know that the Texture Problem that i encountered was Caused By Installing The VRS FA/18 Superbug and TacPack Products !!! By Unistalling Both Of them Everything is Working Perfect Now !!! Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Mike, I know this is an old topic but I am bumping it because for the first time tonight I seen this texture anomaly in P3Dv3.2 after purchasing and testing Bella Coola CYBD. I too have the VRS installed and I noticed you said it was giving you issues. Just as a solution to this so you can still use your VRS when you want is simply going into the TacPack Manager and there is an option to allow the VRS.DLL to load each time you start your sim, never, or Prompt. If you switch it to Prompt every time you start P3D it will ask you if you want to run the VRS.DLL, if you are not going to fly the VRS at that particular moment then say no and the DLL won't load. This will fix the texture anomaly without you having to not install the VRS. The reason the DLL causes this weird texture/terrain anomaly is because VRS has it's own terrain avoidance and crash detection system built into it which is more accurate than the sims could ever portray thus creating this effect we are seeing with the textures and terrain. When you want to fly the VRS all you have to do when that prompt comes up is say yes and you will load the VRS as normal. If you select no to the prompt understand you will not be allowed to use any TacPack products correctly until you shut the sim down and restart and selecting yes at the prompt screen. Hope this help some out in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Appreciated your help and guidance In case I Install Tacpack . Thanks again , Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is nice for sure and you can install all your TacPack and SB goodies without a worry. As I was saying just be sure in TacPack to switch it to Prompt and you won't see any issue. If you don't make that switch so it knows to turn off the crash detection VRS comes with then you will see it. Good luck man and hope to see some pics in v3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
