driving on the wrong side of the road

Was flying in Northern California and noticed that with the latest update for V6 that the cars on the freeway are driving on the wrong side of the road. It's as though they're driving on an island nation. It used to be correct.

Re: Airport Buildings Have disappeared with Version 6.1.

Hello Rob, I followed your instructions and ran "Delete Generated Files" which returned everything to Default. Here's what I've discovered after some trial and error. I have built about fifty AFCAD files for my various favorite airports using Airport Design Editor. The AFCADs are in a fil...

No eclipse in version 6

I know this is far, far down the list of things to add but when I tried to see the eclipse in v6 there was no eclipse. When I tried it in 5.4 I was able to see the moon starting to cover the sun. Though in New Mexico it didn't cover it, but at least it was there. Can you please add eclipses in v6 fo...

Re: v6 - Missing buildings

I just made everything default and San Francisco actually had buildings, but KOAK still didn't have a terminal.

v6 - Missing buildings

I just purchased v6 and found that San Francisco, California is really, really sparce when it comes to buildings downtown, even with all the autogen sliders for Autogen Building Density and Scenery Complexity were turned way up. I also found that Oakland, KOAK, has no terminal whatsoever. Oakland ha...

VR at night with v5.4

Hallelujah! Thank you for fixing the blinking cars on the freeways at night while in VR with version v5.4. The sim was basically unusable at night with version 5.3 because the blinking cars would drive me nuts. Now it's so much better and I can fly at night again. Thank you!

Re: Five months since HF2. Will there be 5.4?

I can see it now if/when they release HF4 or v6 or whatever. The people will be excited then say "I'm holding off to see if there are any bugs," "Why can't I see all my scenery?" "I'm not updating. There are too many problems. I'm still on v4.5." "How do you instal...

HF2 - blazing white cranes and sparking lights next to runways

Not sure if it was in HF1 but other than the blazing white cranes seen in various cities, when flying at night and coming into an airport (ksjc in my case) there are numerous sparkling light next to the runway. It doesn't look like much on a screen but in VR it's very, very noticeable. If there was ...

VR - Autos flickering at night

I love P3D especially in VR but the one thing that bothers me is when I use my Rift the autos at night blink or flicker on and off. It's kind of annoying. Is there any way to stop it from doing that? I tried Stereo and Single Pass but they're both the same. Are there any other suggestions? Thanks!

Transparent windows

Hi, Does anyone know how to get rid of transparent windows? It's driving me batty. This is what I got after updating to v5.2 HF1. These are the gauges from pressing F10. It gives new meaning to Ghost Plane. I also have the transparent windows when using the Aerosoft A320/A321 and bringing up the opt...

Re: No clouds in v5 HF2

I'm not sure why I never tried this before but if you have Rex or AS leave EA on but turn the Cloud Resolution slider to off. You'll see clouds galore. They just won't be the specialized ones that EA offers that sometimes shows up and other times not.

Re: No clouds in v5 HF2

In my case, I messed up the title of the subject. In other words, I screwed the pooch. It should have read "V5.1 HF1."

Re: No clouds in v5 HF2

Rex Skyforce brought in the weather, as you probably guessed. When I turned EA off in the general settings there were clouds and rain. Clicking on the EA box all that rain and cloud goodness disappeared and I was left with sunny, clear skies.
