ALS issues

Whenever I enable atmospheric light scattering, all the text disappears, but when I turn it off, everything is fine again.
GPU: overclocked Radeon R7 200.
Also, I am 11 years old, I want to be a pilot, and I am in to flight simulation. Please do not hate me for this.
Thanks,
VomitSpewer.
Running Windows 10, using FG 2016.1, Problem always happens, it's strange.

If it looks like the image below, try changing your GUI style:

For me that only seems to go in/out of fullscreen.
And my GUI isnt kind of glitchy, I mean like all text disappears.
EDIT: Works perfectly. Just had to use the cycle-gui button at the bottom of the debug menu.
Thanks,

Try change your gfx card to NVidia.
You probably don't have runway lights either, right?
