Hi, I'm noticing strange runway and taxiway shadows that seem to move when the aircraft moves. I have tried reinstalling Sydney and this did not fix it. I have attached a couple of screenshots.
Many thanks,
Aaron

P3D patch installed?
Laptop or old gfxcard?

Hi George. Yes the patch is installed. Using a very new i7700 with GTX1070.
It appears to be something to do with any lines that appear on top of runways/taxiways that is causing these strange shadows

Re: Strange runway/taxiway shadow
Check the Sydney textures folder for grd_skids1.dds. It should be 5.33mb.
Go to Options, Graphics, Lighting.
Untick 'No Shadow Flagged Content'
You'll probably get an fps boost without it too.

Unticking 'no shadow flagged content' did the trick so thank you very much
I did also check the texture folders and that particular file is showing as 5.46mb
