[Weird visability]

He tried messing with the defaults so in the end up I just uninstalled everything and re downloaded FSUIPC and installed it again. I also installed some new drivers after we spoke so maybe that had something to do with it too. He's just starting to learn about the flightsim and likes trying stuff out. Think im gonna have to buy him a copy for his computer bless him!

All the best

Because everything was fine until I installed the latest version, do you have an email address so I can send you a pic of what I mean, think ive just screwed my visability settings up some how

Richard

[Weird visability]

I wonder if you could help me out someone? All of a sudden after installing the latest version of FSUIPC im getting this weird visability effect, see photo. I'll be honest I dont have a clue what im doing and have read the manual but before I used to have the visability gradually phase out to unlimited from it being what ever i set it on the ground. Any help would be great

Richard

EDIT. It wont allow me to post the picture, I dont know how to lower it to the allowed kb size. What it shows is that when the plane clears the visability layer set by me say 20 miles to 5000ft all I get then is a gradual box of haze below the aircraft until when I get to my cruise level all I have is a box of haze under me. Sorry I cant be of more help
