black screen with sound

Post by cessna lover »

hey guys. i was wondering when installing this aircraft it put the option up to install direct x 10 but i don't use direct x 10 preview. would this cause problems when flying this plane? cause i have seen it go invisible before if that's the cause how do i uninstall dx10??

Hello,

no the installer simply installs the latest direct X9 libraries as these are a requirement for the simulation to run.

thanks,

Hello,

what are you PC specs? if you are seeing multiple graphic anomaly's you could be pushing your system too hard causing corruption in the display as you r system tries to handle what you are throwing at it.

Try lowering your settings and see if that makes a difference. Also with a lower end card like the 50 make sure the AA and AF isn't set too high etc.

Which processor? As the clock speed isn't the be all end all but architecture can be.

Thanks,
Lewis

well i am actually wondering if it's not a texture or scenery file. because the default aircraft do not do this. it only does this when i have the a2a 172 trainer.

Yes remember your running a complex simulation it's not comparable to the default relaxed realism basic aircraft.

Also remember that if flying high you could simply have blacked out.

Hello,

There is no dx10 installed during installation. It updates your direct X9 to the latest libraries during installation but this is a requirement and utterly separate to what dx version fs is running in visually.

Thanks,
Lewis
