Strange vertical bars in cockpit view

[SNAFU]

Hi all,

 

I searched this forum for a hint regarding this graphic bug, but i wasn´t lucky. I don´t know how to call this but either, but i am sure this is an old issue and has been resolved long time ago, just didn´t find the solution.

 

Maybe someone can give me a link, hint or whatever to get rid of this black, stripes and bars, appearing vertical around the horizon in cockpit view. The only appear with certain weather conditions and time, but they annoy me somehow.

 

Here a screenshot from cockpit view, and you see this stripes and bars at the horizont. They flicker and zip around, and drive me nuts...

I don´t have em in the outside view, as you see on this image.

My system:

Q9450 - 4 GB DDR3 RAM - XP PRO - ATI 4850

 

Thanks in advance and so long,

SNAFU

It's an old LockOn engine graphics bug. Can be fixed by disabling shadows from clouds.

As I remember Teka-Teka made such fix, you can search it.

 

By the way - strange that you have such black shadow from helicopter...

Well, thanks for the hint.

 

I found this thread http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=34473&highlight=clouds+shadow, which describes this issue methinks, but the method using -DX9 in shortcut properties didn´t do it.

 

Before i had shadows set to ALL PLANAR, now i use FULL ACTIVE or ACTIVE PLANAR and there are less stripes.

 

BTW: The dark shadow you see on the pics, only apear in certain angles of view and with HEAT BLUR active and running engines, methinks. In the test with shadows set to: ACTIVE PANAR or FULL i didn´t see this ugly shadow again. Lets see...

 

I will try it with this shadow settings, thanks... ;)

I have to correct myself, unfortunatly.

 

The stripes and bars are there whatever shadow quality i use and despite DX9 entry (whatever, I use XP so DX9 anyway).

 

While testing i didnt use TIR so my head stayed centred and stripes and bars were less, now when i move head, this stipes reappear. Didn´t find anything else regaring this bug, but a cloudmod for LOMAC.
