Black Sky in Prepar3d V5 HF 2

[MarSchar1]

Hi
I have a strange bug in V5. When Enhanced Atmospherics is turned on, everything looks normal. When i turn off Enhanced Atmospherics however, it looks like this: https://prnt.sc/tvnuzy
I had installed Active Sky Beta and Active Sky Cloud Art, but they are now uninstalled and this still happens. I also tryed to delete my Shaders folder and the Prepar3d.cfg, but it didnt help.
Thanks for the help

Marco,

I had a fligh about half an hour ago with EA turned on. So I now did the default flight with the F-35A out of KRND with EA turned off, and the sky was blue as it usually is.

Only add-ons installed here are FSUIPC 6 and SODE plus a ton of AI.

I would think the support guys at HiFi would be the ones to answer this one.

I dont think that the problem is comming from Active Sky. I uninstalled it completley and repaired Prepar3d with the install_client.msi but the black sky is still occuring. It even happens if all installed Addons are disabeld.

Even if you "completely uninstall" an add-on, it may still leave files in your installation.

The only way to determine if this is a P3D error or bug is to fly in a completely virgin installation, that has never seen an add-on of any kind.

Agreed, my own installation is not completely virgin, but close.

Dealing with the same issue here, it looks like there is no atmosphere, just ground, black water (with reflections), and a black sky with the sun a bright white ball. Nothing with my simulator has changed (so far as I'm aware), even the addons are the same. The only thing I can think of that did change was the Nvidea drivers and Windows Update, other than that the simulator has not changed between my previous flight and my current one.

UPDATE: Resetting to default display values appears to have corrected the problem. I will update again if and when I determine which display value caused this.

Hi MarSchar1,
I am having the same issue and I was wondering if you found a solution. My problem is in VR and it is the opposite behavior you are having. Just recently when I am in VR the right lens is showing the exact same behavior you are seeing. I noticed that if I switch from Single-pass to Stereo or turn off EA, the problem goes away, but I want both Single-pass for better VR performance and EA visuals are great and I want them as well.

The only thing that may have caused this is the latest NVidia driver which I recently upgraded a week ago. I did not have this problem before, although I did tinker with my World and Lighting settings a little during this period.

Thanks,
Mustafa
