Anyone else have "transparent" planes?

[Azametric]

Hi,

things have gotten much better since the last patch but now my plane goes transparent .... only after i start the engine.

The prop can be seen through the cocpit and plane when in external view, as well as gorund static objects.

If i land in long grass the grass can be seen from inside the plane.

I have this problem with all models. Clouds can also bee seen through the plane and "layer" over my instruments.

Anyone know how to get thumbnails? Having to DL an image is a killer for instant help....

[Azametric]

interestingly enough, i ony get this on Win7 Ulitmate 64 bit so i´m guessing its an ATI driver issue. ( i can dual boot XP or 7 ).

Any ideas on Driver settings that might help - or reverting to an older driver?

I´ll be testing this as soon as i can - if you have same issues let me know what you have tried out so we ca help eachother.

Yep, I have XP and an ATI HD4870 1bg card running Catalyst 11.3.

Not saying thats the issue, but I share those common things

Use a other format like jpg, gif or png.
BMP is not Web conform. ;)

You may want to try with "Render=D3D10" when running W7 x64? I believe others found an issue there...

Azametric, if what the guy above said doesn't work re your pics, you might also try making sure they are added using the "insert image" button, not by attaching them, and that the links are to some picture uploading site such as photobucket.
