Bug: Latest Beta, broken shadows.

aeroflyfan1 · September 13, 2016 at 1:58 PM

The latest beta (Sept 9) has shadow pop under certain circumstances when rotating the view in VR and NonVR mode.

Scenario .....

Fly the 737 North over SanFrancisco in sunlight (23hrs).

Select the view beneath the aircraft. (Undercarraige View)

Observe the left engine as you rotate your view from left to right. The shadows pop on and off.

In VR mode, this is also noticeable if you go to external view and rotate to be under the aircraft looking up. As you rotate under the plane, you see the shadow pop on/off across the whole aircraft.

Running all graphics settings on Ultra. GTX980ti.

Yeah, I've seen that as well, but the shadows have always been kind of funky. I've wandered into the camp where I think now it might be useful to be able to turn them off.

In my case, this has only just started with the latest beta (Sept 9). Hopefully it's a software fix.

We have fixed the shadow issue internally, we will publish an update this week.
