July 20, 20241 yr Add me to the list getting flickering lights as well. They also seem to turn off with LOD (moving around makes the lights appear and disappear), but that issue has been around for a while and I think it's unrelated to what's being discussed here. The flickering lights is a new one.
July 21, 20241 yr I think you have the same bug that by night live traffic dont have lights and you can not see it. Some planes show lights but short time that explain the flickerin you said.

That with the same piece of software... Mayby you have not updated to the latest Visual C++ runtime as described in the Manual? I suggest you guys try that first. Edited July 22, 20241 yr by kiek

Rolling back will never be supported by me, because it will make giving support a hell of a job. Besides, RT also forces me to update to changes every now and then, so you cannot stay behind.

I will give it a try. As I thought it update automaticly with psxt. Also which package aircrafts you use ? You confirm you see all lights by night, taxi, landing , nav logo light?
July 22, 20241 yr Author Installing the latest C++ version also didn't fix it. It is still broken. This bug makes it unusable by night unfortunately. Edited July 22, 20241 yr by onlythejker
July 22, 20241 yr Author I now completely reinstalled ever C++ version on my PC, still the same issue! MSFS PSXT still with light issue (youtube.com)

July 23, 20241 yr I think Nico is attempting to repair lights going off in a moment of touchdown. I am observing mostly on airliners lights off until take off and they blink once right after takeoff and then continue blink once every 12 - 13 seconds Some GAs seem to have lights working like they used to. I also observed E190 sitting at the gate with beacons on, then the taxied with beacons on correctly, and then at lineup beacons continue blinking while strobes correctly started blinking as well. It took off with all the lights correctly functioning. I’ve looked at the systems CFG and I don’t see difference, but some thing is that make it work like it used to in FSX... mike Sim,PC, monitor,prescription glasses, chair.
July 23, 20241 yr Hello, Im now in cruise by night as you can see in my Hewpilot channel. I Confirm I dont see aircraft lights in cruise , Just some flickering, but all pqxt live trafic can not see very annoying. HewPilot LIME-EGSS
July 24, 20241 yr There is a thread on AIG forums regarding this issue, which I suspect is not caused by PSXT in any way (maybe). https://www.alpha-india.net/forums/index.php?topic=43619.0 i7-6700k • Gigabyte GA-Z170X-UD5 • 32GB DDR4 2666 • EVGA FTW ULTRA RTX3080 12GB
July 24, 20241 yr in the process of experimentation I loaded FSLTL AI traffic and the lights work there as they used to. Nothing on the ground but in the air I see strobes and beacons Sim,PC, monitor,prescription glasses, chair.

The light flickering bug started for me after upgrading to 7.8.4. Things were working fine for me on 7.8.3 and prior
