Yep, I have the same visual bug in a lot of places. One of those things that will get patched eventually
yep same, hovering lights. Strange obsession with overly bright strings of red lights that donât move and arenât attached to anything.
Hi @Eddrik84, @VisedMedusa3177, @SuperDoooodYa,
I merged an old floating lights topic from August from the Community section into a post in the Bugs section on floating lights. Are you still seeing them? If so, where? I am trying to track places where they are known to exist. Thanks!
Weâve seen a lot of updates, but the painfully obvious elephant in the room, even to a legally blind FS fan, like me, has to be the UFO lights, floating over streets, roads, and highways. As if flying cars, going over bridges, and aircraft floating at jet bridges werenât bad enough. LOL

Its a generally bug i have it in Lowi
Yep me too
Same here.
First noticed when they issued the halloween challenge and first thought this was on purpose ![]()
Absolutely yes! I agree itâs an elephant running around almost unnoticedâŠ
it ruins a lot of evening and night sceneries that would be beautiful without this issue. I have this on many many areas so itâs useless to give a list of where happens, but if necessary I would do so.
Itâs a pity because when I see an awesome night or dusk scenery and Iâm enjoying it, then I lower my altitude and I begin to see some lights moving abnormally to the ground, and then I realize they are floating over the terrain, maybe 100 fts or more, even much more (not street lights definitively), and suddendly all the realism vanishesâŠ
I also see totally unrealistic big red dots in the distance at night on many sceneries, then approaching to them they disappear⊠canât understand what they are supposed to be.
Iâve installed the last update yesterday, 1,4 GB but only very minor fixes for me.
The red lights should be obstacles like antennas, but unfortunately the antennas themselves are not visible, at least for the moment⊠I hope they are likely to use them in the future, such as churches, mosques etc. as it looks they will come
above my child garden next house where i lived first years of my life, red light, there no any obstacles in the real
Itâs everywhere and it is a bit of a joke. I just turn it into a game and go Pacman on them, trying to fly a path through them that gobbles then up.
St Bartâs is a perfect example of strings of these Christmas Baubles.
The developers are very aware of this âbugâ, and they have discussed why itâs there and that theyâre working on fixes for it and other related issues in the developers Q&Aâs. I think specifically in the early September issue they addressed it and what theyâre doing to fix it. Some of it is related to distance resolution issues and how the lights are handled for differnet distances. And that the calculating of distances can be messed up.
the problem was only introduced with the first patch before the problem did not exist
The first time I noticed the UFOâs, I was taking off at Big Bear in California, and I could swear I saw it before and after the first patch Basically floating lights above the mountains all around the airport. But I maybe Iâm wrong. Either way, the developers are at least somewhat aware of the problem. If youâre going to submit a bug, please include full detail and pictures of it.
I have already submitted tickets and have always been labeled as solved
zendesk may have worked in alpha but at the moment with so many bugs itâs like lottery whether Asobo gets the ticket
This is EXACTLY what I am seeing as well .. Both masses of Light balls floating around, and the ground lighting far to bright.
Where are you seeing them?
Where are you in that video? Itâs not your graphics settings. Itâs scenery glitches, and Iâm trying to track all of them.
I am flying from Yeager Airport KCRW and I am flying in Charleston
WV..you will immediately upon takeoff fly right into charleston..
The airport overlooks the city basicallyâŠ
I see them in the Baltimore/Washington area. (at Night)
Example, take off on Rwy 33 KMTN, heading North, and keep at about 500ft â There are round White Light balls everywhere, you can even fly into them !!
They seem to mainly be associated with roads, and illuminated Buildings.
They are fixed in space â ie Not associated with road traffic.
100âs of them !!
