    Tile boundary flicker

    Running today's x release, I noticed that when crossing a tile boundary, the whole screen momentarily flickers. Its much like the old problem in MSTS where just the F/A shape portion would flicker when crossing a tile boundary, except here, the whole screen flashes white very quickly as it crosses each and every tile boundary. Doesn't matter if you are running f/s or windowed. I thought we were supposed to be getting away from the tile boundary flickers? I don't download every x release to know when this first surfaced.

    On the The Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor there is a Tablet. On it is written:
    "Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
    the wretched refuse of your teeming shore, send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
    I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

        Got Video. Crude cell phone, but it shows the problem roughly at the 23 second mark. Just download it and full screen it.




        This happens at every tile boundary, but I'm showcasing this boundary at Cowan interlocking on the East River route just so track features at the time of flicker can match up with tile boundary locations on Mosaic. This did not happen in earlier versions of O/R. But its good to know that others are not seeing it, probably its just O/R Unique Hardware Problem #35,746 that will likely go way "when I get a new faster machine".....

          If you download from that site, be very careful about what you click on....

          Do not click on the buttons that say "Download" or "Play"

          Look for the plain text that says "Click here to start download from Sendspace"

          Anything else is just trickery into having you install crap you won't want on your PC, and don't need to download in order to see the video.
          If you like what you see here at Trainsim.com, be it the discussions and knowledge in the forums, or items available in our library, I hope you'll consider a paid membership to help support keeping the site operating.... Thanks!
