Missing light sources on additional render windows

ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue: With SU4 beta, some light sources are no longer showing up on my two additional render windows on my triple screen setup.

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

How often does this occur for you (Example: Just once, every time on sim load, intermittently)?

Constant at night with many light sources.

REPRODUCTION STEPS

Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:

  1. Use more than one render window

  2. Start a flight at night

YOUR SETTINGS

If the issue still occurs with no mods and add-ons, please continue to report your issue. If not, please move this post to the User Support Hub.

What peripherals are you using:

[PC Only] Are you using Developer Mode or have you made any changes to it?

[PC Only] What GPU (Graphics Card) do you use?

[PC Only] What other relevant PC specs can you share?

i5-11600KF with an AMD 9070 (known for its other issues with night lightning in MSFS, so hope someone on different hardware can try to reproduce.

MEDIA

Please add a screenshot or video of the issue occurring.

First a demo at EDJA

Here a demo at KDEN with the FPS window showing

Both are handcrafted default airports. Many non-handcrafted airports have no lights and have always been dark, so no example there.

Might be related to the underlying issues causing problems for VR users (Stars and Other Objects are Visible Only in One Eye), but still significantly different.

Getting this as well - On my triple monitor setup the main monitor is showing light points correctly, the two side monitors (render windows) do not. Very much a deal breaker for multi monitor users so will roll back to SU3 for the time being.

What graphics card are you on?

I’m on the 9070, which already has som issues with lights in 24 ( Weird graphical artifacts around cockpit at night on AMD RX 9000 Series GPUs ). So would be nice to know if this multi monitor thing is also an issue on different GPUs.

Same problem here.

Getting the same issue here on a triple monitor setup, it seems to be the airport night lighting not working on only the outer two (additional) windows

  • Fixed gltf lights not displayed in multiple monitor setups

From today’s 1.6.13.0 release.

Issue is fixed on my setup with that one.
