Texan: 4 black screen per second lasting millliseconds each

Post by manuver12 »

Hi, I just bought and installed the T6 in FSX STEAM. All my other planes work fine including Cessna 172 a2a and Piper cub. The Texan works fine too, but I get a black screen lasting milliseconds. approximately 3 or four times per second. This happens both in the mirror screen and in my Oculus Rift.It is really annoying. Is there any advise about what to do to correct this issue.
I have not found any other way to get support about this issue as A2A tech support does not reply my two emails.
Thank you and regards.

Hello and welcome to the support and community forums. All support is here on the forums, we have no email support. For the issue you mention its normally a VR issue rather than anything else, vive users including myself as familiar with it as the vive had it for a long while before Dan from fly inside managed to fix it.

However just in case you will want to make sure you run the latest updater here;

Hi again:

I have updated the Texan and FlyInside and the problem persists. Only with the A2A TEXAN, all the other planes work perfect.
I there anything else I can do to fix this? it is very unpleasant to fly with this black blinking all the time!!

Manuel

Are you running the latest Accu-sim updater and have you tried lowering the settings, the issue with the vive was due to performance and one had to change settings to get the flickering to go or to lessen dependant on sim situation.

Hi, I am running A2A_Update_01_17_17 and Accu-Sim_T-6_FSX. I get a perfect simulation , even with the Texan, just this flickering with the T6 only. I get 60 fps with the T6 , about the same than with any other plane
Before I start fiddling with settings and screw something affecting my 99,99% perfect running simulator, could you please tell me which settings I should try.
Thank you and regards.

Oh! That, well, I think I just have to give up, I don't want to mess things up trying here and there without more specific advise, when everything else is working well.

Basically this support service means: ok, well, try something, you are SOLO

Nevertheless, a 50 usd lost will not change my life. I just made the wrong decision with the Texan.
I am just disappointed with A2A.

If any more SPECIFIC advise comes in the future I am very willing to follow it.

Regards
Manuel

Hi Manuel,

Afraid I don't have any experience personally with VR hardware, but have you seen the panel.cfg edit suggestion in this topic? Just wonder if it's worth a try...
tkcamp wrote:I went to flyinside`s forum and found help. Seems the A2A 250 Commanche had what seemed to be the same problem. In Order to fix it, a line was removed in the panel.cfg. I tried the same thing in the T-6 and works fine now.

[Window09]
Background_color=0,0,0
indent=100
render_3d_window=1 <---------- remove this line
nomenu=1
type=special
Thanks,
Nick

Thank you so much Nick, I tried what you said, removed the whole cfg line and did not work, BUT , thanks to you I could follow the issue in the blog and SHALOMAR said on December 2016 """BTW, deleting a line seems drastic so I just changed the 1 to 0. Working fine now"""
SO I did and it works perfect now.
Thank you again.

Manuel
