You could provide a scenario[*], setup so that we can immediately try to move the camera.


[*] Preparing such "entry-points" to reproduce an issue helps a lot so developers can start looking at the issue without the hassle of first trying to set up the environment to even reproduce it.:thumbup:

Here's the .scn file, and thanks for the tip!

There's something going on with the reflections. This is something I've noticed for a while. At certain camera angles, the reflections abruptly turns black. This can be reproduced over and over just by moving between camera angles.

I've attached two screenshots showing this. The first screenshot shows the reflections in their normal state. The second one shows them blackened. Look at the Centaur in the payload bay and the side hatch window.

Could you be above the light sources limit? :shrug:
If so, some lights will turn off at certain ranges and angles.

I doubt that as the only light sources are Earth and the Sun, all the lights on the orbiter are turned off.

Ok, Thanks. It looks like the shuttle will dissappear from the Centaur's reflection environment for some unknown reason. I would need to be able to reprocude the issue so that I can monitor the object states and get a real time data out of the client.

I can try to reproduce the issue with stock Atlantis & payload. If that fails, then I would need your help to setup the scenario.

Here's the scenario, just tilting the camera up/down should be able to show it.

There seems to be an issue with local lights in D3D9Client, that they cause VC oversaturations. I have attached a screenshot of this issue, showing the panels being completely washed out with the PLB lights turned on.

Is this related to resent "visibility" changes in the light sources ?

The over saturation is likely due to "Light + Emission" from a material. Causing the total light to go well above "1.0". Clamping "Light + Emission" to "1.0" might not be the best course of action.

Would it be more practical to disable PLB lights from effecting VC. Is there a problem with light management in the client ?

It appears that way. Everything was fine until GLS added the visibility flag. Until that point, everything was fine.

Here's the scenario, just tilting the camera up/down should be able to show it.


I got the scenario running. But how do I deploy the Centaur in that position ?

I'm now setting the visibility flag in LightEmitter to VIS_ALWAYS, so lights are visible both from internal and external views. I didn't notice any issues in MOGE r87. Can't run D3D9 as it shuts down my PC.... :(

It should already be in that position when you load it. If it is not this is the procedure:



  1. R13L: PL MECH PWR (2) - ON
  2. A6U: PL RETENTION LOGIC PWR (2) - ON
  3. A6U: PAYLOAD RETENTION LATCHES (3) - REL, TB REL
  4. L12U: SSP PRI PWR - ON
  5. L12U: MECH PWR - ON
  6. L12U LOGIC PRI PWR - ON
  7. DA PRI ROT - UP

Ok, Thanks. I have SSU 4.2 r2570 (I assume it's the latest) and the scenario starts payload-bay doors closed.

That explains things, as an active SSU developer I'm of course running the latest SSU trunk revision and there have been changes to SSU scenario file layout.

@clipper: Until now I was not (yet) able to reproduce the issue.
But I'll try. So don't think your scenario wasn't appreciated...it surely is :thumbup:
I just wanted to inform you about the "progress".

New build is out

New builds are published for Orbiter 2016 and Beta. Available from additional downloads section due to "Beta" status.

- Dave's reflection issue should be fixed
- Donamy's local lights issue in GenericCameraMFD should be fixed
- An attempt is made to fix Clipper's planet issue. Feedback required.
- Kuddel's local lights on lunar surface issue should be fixed.
- Some animation related bugs have been fixed. (Related to a use of negative amin state)
- Some other lunar surface rendering issues have been fixed.
- Cloud shadow intensity over water has been increased.
- Nightlights intensity has been increased. (Plenty of nights visibility problems exists. Missing from certain tiles. Corrupted textures ???)

- SSU Over saturation issue remains. Proper fix is still unknown.

I am sorry to hear that. We have invested a quite lot of efforts to keep the client available as many as possible.

Do you know why it doesn't run ? If not then could you post the logs ?

I can confirm that the issues reported by me has been fixed except for the over saturation issue. Two issues still remain though, shadows not affecting diffuse particle streams and of course the atmosphere rendering.

Is it only SSU? If so, then we might be doing something wrong... :shifty:

I'm 99% certain it's hardware, probably not even the GPUs. It started to shut down the PC when I tried to run D3D9 in the NVIDIA, but it still worked in the Intel GPU. That was until a week or so ago, when it started to do the same in the Intel. :(
When I have time I'll try to debug this further, but you guys are almost certainly innocent.

I haven't been able to test it on my main hardware as I'm away, but I tested it on a different hardware and it seems to work perfectly well, so thank you very much for the effort and implementation.

By the way, I'm not sure if this is an issue with D3D9 or not, but when running the sim in Window with Taskbar mode, the MFDs in the default glass cockpit appear rather blurry as compared to when running with the other two full screen modes. I managed to replicate this on two different systems and I also compared it to Orbiter 2010 Window with Taskbar mode and the MFDs appear exactly the same as in the other two modes, so this seems to be an Orbiter 2016-specific issue.

EDIT: So after some more tinkering, it seems that this issue only occurs when using a Generic MFD size of 3 or less (which I do on a regular basis), otherwise the MFDs appear just as they should. However, this still isn't the case in Orbiter 2010 where MFDs appear smooth regardless of the selected size.
