After press FLY - display turns in shattered view

Postby Immiperium » Fri Apr 16, 2021 5:08 pm

Dear Forum

I just installed FG 2020.3.8 on my Lenovo Thinkpad T570 (8 GB Ram, Intel i5 7200, DirectX 12, Renderer: Intel(R) HD Graphics 620) with Win 10 pro 64.
When I start FG 2020.3.8 the main menue appears. I can download the default hangar and everything seems to work fine.
But everytime I select the “FLY” Button the display turns in shattered view with green stripes and I can hardly read “FlightGear 2020.3.8”

What went wrong?
Do you have any suggestions for me?
Thanks

Thats only the splashscreen. The simulator should work as normal.
If you have a problem with the menu in-sim, add the following parameter to you start line:
Code: Select all
--prop:/sim/gui/current-style=0

well not really... after a while I can hear a voice saying: "Welcome aboard. If you need help use the help tutorial"
on the screen I see a cockpit criss-crossed with green lines... the lines are trembling... phew, really exhausting to watch :shock: . I doubt that this is normal.
looks more like a graphics card error to me - but can that be? I mean, my notebook is not exactly a cheap model?
Thanks for your tip anyway, of course.

PS: I also added the command line argument as you recommended - but with no succes.

If you only see graphical glitches in 3d, maybe a problem with shared memory?
I have similar problems on a very old IBM A31p, but allways, also on desktop and at boot time (BIOS screen).
The graphic chip runs too hot and it self unsoldered.
But this Laptop is too old, i will not repair it.

hm, even when I try to fly FG while all other programms are closed, there is no better result.
What else could I do now - I mean beside buying more RAM?
Or do you mean s.th. else with "problem with shared memory"?

I have installed the "Intel driver and support assistant" and according to this app, I own already the newest driver.
At the moment I have not the slightest idea what I could do...
I will be grateful for any suggestions

Google suggests this is a Intel driver bug (one cause of graphical corruption), and the driver version before 27.20.100.8280 will work e.g. 27.20.100.8190 .
