I suggest you try to explain a little more accurately what this problem is. I Really haven't understood anything you wrote. No offence meant.

Can you be a bit clearer on this subject, or even post an image with this graphic problem of yours? It would help the community in helping you.

I know what you're talking about- they sort of flicker as they come within the range of visibility, right? Don't know what causes it, or exactly how to fix it, but I get that sometimes, in areas where dense scenery is taxing my system's ability to draw everything. Only fix is to not change your locked fps rate, but reduce more settings (weather and traffic are big hogs). I haven't tried that, and don't want to reduce settings more than i have. It rarely happens, and usually stops after flying a few minutes in the area in question...

No offence meant rottydaddy, but your explanation seems strange to me that have a way lower configuration than yvon. My sim pc being an AMD Athlon 2400 with a Gefo Fx5700.

Seems strange because I never had that problem and always kept all the sliders maxed out (all of them besides the AI traffic).

Might it be something about the video card drivers? ???
