• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Was away from flying for a couple of weeks. Came back and it's the weirdest thing. At some airports the vc panel, once in a while the 2d, is very dark. Can't hardly make it out. Also sometimes some of the airport buildings are very dark. Other airports everything is fine. Happens with different aircraft. Happens with fs9 textures, SW and GW textures. Totally uninstalled and reinstalled and still had the problem with stock fs9 and GW textures. Did a defrag. So I believe the problem is with my computer. I'll post my specs and hopefully somebody has an idea.

P4 dual 2.8 gig
4 gig ram
9500 gt
Realtek audio
500 gig sata2 hd
win7x64
 
Not sure yet who the actual culprit is but my FS9 install is generally much darker on W7 running on a flat panel display as well when flying at night.

I have a cathode tube monitor and I'm flying during the day in the middle of the summer.

It's not all dark. Mostly the vc cockpit but not at all airports, sometimes the 2d cockpit and sometimes airport buildings.
