Flash Effect - bigbadbob - 12-04-2011
Hi All,
This subject has probably already been raised but I can't find it. Anytime I program my aircraft when FS Passenger is running I get
flashes. Let me explain: I load my FMC and each key causes a flash and then pauses the program. If I, say, use 5 mins to load
passengers and have loaded all my aircraft parameters I sit and wait for the program to complete. Once I use my mouse to ask for taxi
instractions or use any other pop-up, I get a flash and then pauses the program. Darn irritating when using an airplane like Queen of the
Sky.
Then while flying again after sometime, I use the mouse for a pop-up and the whole flight just crashes. I don't get this if I don't use FS
Passenger.
I'm using an Intel quad 2.8 with 7 Ram and GForce 9800GT with 1 GB graphic card so the hardware should not an issue. Can anyone
help.
Thanks
Rob

What OS are you using and are you using in full screen or windowed mode?
Re: Flash Effect - bigbadbob - 13-04-2011
Sorry, I just realised I forgot to write that in: Windows 7 Pro 64 bits. I'm using a widescreen windowed mode.
Please note: I'm working out of Africa so we have to take time zone into consideration - Sorry about that..
Cheers

Using windowed mode will often cause problems with pausing in FSX, especially if the program thinks you're moving to a task outside of FSX - there is
an option in FSX main settings that will disable the pause function on task switch.

Looks like on full screen the problem is a thing of the pass - many thanks. Just out of curiousity, what is the option in FSX main settings
that will disable the pause setting?
Cheers

The option that says Pause on task switch needs to be unchecked; been years since I had to use it, so not sure where exactly it is located in
the options.

Ok, thanks anyway - you've been a great help.
