Re: Dynamic lights not showing up on arrival

Try deleting your prepar3d.cfg and letting it rebuild. I know this is a tired response to every issue but this has worked for me twice now when encountering this issue. I have no idea why it happens in the first place, though.

Request - let us set texture resolution for scenery/aircraft separately

We need more granular ways to control VRAM. Please let us set texture resolution separately for scenery versus virtual cockpits.

Re: Dynamic lights not showing up on arrival

Re: Still seeing objects through clouds in 5.1 HF 1

It would be nice to get a more complete explanation of why some items still show through clouds and others don't. I just took this example from 5.1/HF1 with EA off: https://imgur.com/a/TugOWR0
