• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Weird Render Issue ...

Might be something with the driver. I just updated the driver of my own NVidia card and now I see the same green effects. So for sure this driver version and my shader don't work together that well...

I haven't upgraded my Nvidia driver I'm still 314.22 and no green lantern effects for me. Think you nailed it Arno.

Could you check your driver version? ..

Perhaps an nVidia driver version 314.22 thing? :confused:

I am using the 314.22, and Arno just updated to it, as it is the latest driver available on nVidia. ...

Do you maybe have the previous driver? :)
 
I have just now, noticed that:
Code: 
while( ForceSimpleShader == true ) {
       textures_LM.dds = textures.dds;
};
- sorry for my, rather lame bit of humor there ...

In other words, the night textures do not display; instead the day textures seem to remain loaded( see attached ). If you set ForceSimpleShaders back to false, they display correctly.

The plot thickens, I thought there was a newer driver than 314.22. I checked my driver version when I posted that, I'm definitely 314.22.

Well, maybe it is now down to the 'extra' technology( or support ) the different cards come with; i.e. Pixel Shader v1.5 vs. Pixel Shader v2.0 ...

:stirthepo

*** EDIT ***

You know it is just an apostrophe( ' ) somewhere that a tick( ` ) or quote( " ) should be! As the renderer will not render the _LM textures with the ForceSimpleSader set to true ... DAMN apostrophes! :)

I'll check if there are any warnings during the shader compilation with the new driver version.

About those night textures, that's by design. In the simple shader mode you only get the diffuse texture. All other (mo advanced) features are disabled.
 
Hi,

I found the bug, so the next development release will have this issue fixed. It seems this new driver version was just a bit more strict when it came to the shader code.

:censored: EXCELLENT!!!

Thanks for looking into and following through with it Arno! :cool:
 
Arno,

Just wanted to say ... Thank you for your time, and to report back:

I have now the latest version: 1.4.0.0r2337 DEV 5/14/2013.

All is working as it should! Model display is correct! Thanks again!

Glad to hear it is working. It's always nice to fix a bug.
