Graphic quirkes, dancing light.

On a recent sort hop with my freeware Socata TB-20 I noticed an unusual and annoying graphic issue.

Maybe it's an effect that plane has but the others don't eg some kind of shader which the overclocking has screwed up. Try other games too to see if its a hardware issue.

Okay, I've just noticed this aformentioned issue this morning with a different plane.  It was Dave Maltby's 1-11.  I've also noticed it happens usually when there are lots of cumulous clouds although this time today rather than seeing the light flashes on and inside of the plane it was mostly in the sky.  Now, if I clear out all clouds I don't see it.  But, with clouds there are a lot of small square light flashings. very quick ones.  I've only noticed itsince I turned up my card clocking.  Perhaps maybe FS will burn itself to the faster speeds.  I noticed strange graphic reactions when I first upgraded from the 9200 radeon to the 6600GT and they went away after awhile.  I'll just keep playing with my settings awhile and see if i can tune it in better.  I have almost all perermance settings set to apllication preference.  Perhaps I should try my own settings.  See what I can fix without giving up frame rates.
