flickering textures in the VC..? Milton's Lodestar

[heywooood]

Does anyone know what causes this to happen and what the fix is..?
Also happens in the Mallard AT but not the LDR radial engine Mallard.

Ok that's odd - apparently this anomaly cannot be captured with the 'v' key screen capture.
The VC image begins to flicker in the worst way whenever the mouse is touched ..rapid and disjointed triangular artifacts that can only be stopped by switching or cycling the views
I have not seen this before and it only happens with those two aircraft.
I can fly without using the mouse - keyboard commands and the J/S but would much rather have a fix if there is one - please and thank-you

Heywoood,

Can you share with us your Windows version, Sim version, running DX10 or not, screen resolution and monitor size or ratio.

Is this issue only with the panel or all VC textures?

Are you running any special "other" controlling software, mouse software, etc.?

Are you in Full screen mode or Windows mode?

Is this happening on CameraDefinitionViews or just standard VC view, or both?

Thanks

Win 7-64 FSX boxed DX10+Fixer 1920x1080 16:9 single display
all VC textures in VC view (F9)
No other apps or software - no background apps
Full Screen
Happens in VC view whenever the mouse is touched. the cure is to cycle views using the 'S' key

Does this happen with DX10 preview off?

Thanks for the info.

Sorry - I was out with family..
I have a lot of tweaks involved with the Fixer..it isn't just a matter of switching DX10 preview on and off so I will have to check that
or decide if it is worth it. Don't get me wrong - I appreciate your effort to determine the cause and I love the plane. But I have a hundred others that work just fine and getting FSX to work properly with the .cfg, nVidia inspector and the Fixer...I'm just not sure I want to unpin all that.
Thanks all the same Milton

No problem Heywoood. I wouldn't either. :-)

I'll put this one to bed then.
