Hey Guys,

For some reason my FS has been acting up and my textures have gone to hell. I get these wierd dots on the ground, in my virtual cockpit, and on the reflection of the water (some free-ware add-on for water). Now my textures look like this...

At Flytampa's airports and when using Real Pro Enviroment the problem is magnified for some reason

Anyone have any ideas?

Check your graphics card drivers... they may be out of date or something.

ok, but why would it only be in FS if its a driver or card issue? Plus I forgot to add that when I re-install FS9 it goes away, but if I re-start my computer and add my add-ons it comes back. Wierd, huh?

Then it could be one of the addons is messed up too... who knows. graphics issues could be any number of things.

Just try different things to see if that fixes it.

When you add your add-ons make sure that you do it one at a time. After you've installed the first add-on, test it first before you install the next add-on. This way you'll be able to detect the culprit.

Haven't tryed re-installing FS9 again and then adding on "add-ons" one by one... however I tryed FS in Safe-mode and the texture problem goes away. When I even fly into FlyTampa's airports I don't even get the "dots" thing... whats-up???? Thanks

In that case I would follow belgeode's advice and 'check your graphics card drivers' _ see above.
