Flashing effect when switching between external/cockpit views

Is this the same issue?

The sim will jettison objects from memory when you change views, to make room for loading the new objects in the new view. You are seeing the transition. It might help to disable “Motion Blur” in the list of Graphics Settings - at least it mitigates the effect for me.

I never noticed anything I would call flashing when switching views. This seems to be more of a refocus of the images and sometimes a full redraw of the instrumentation. The video uses a Cessna 172, but I tried this with a few other aircraft and multiple airports.

The description in the title isn’t clear, but the video I posted a few posts deeper into the thread seems similar to yours.

Take a look:

Agree, looks like the same issue, introduced in SU4.

Definitely the same one.

Agree 100! It had me puzzled until I looked at the examples provided.

I like @FlipperAlloy30’s terminology, better. It should be more accurately renamed: “Refocus/redraw” effect, I think.

Maybe “re-morphing” or “re-texturing” ? :grinning_face:

I find it curious that I have never seen this issue before this release. I have owned and used both MSFS 2020 and MSFS 2024 since day one.

I do appreciate your review and comments.
