Plane Shows Lights Only

Whenever I see planes that only show lights and no body, they are Cessnas. Any reason for this, or a fix?

This isn’t a common occurrance.
My first thoughts are a mod conflict, or a livery which hasn’t been updated and no longer works correctly.

The generic AI models have that LOD setup and it has been like that for months. Lights are seen from miles away while fuselage just from some yards away. In theory that would be a performance saver but is an error in the 3D model configuration as the fuselage is seen only while being too close to the AI. That error is on the official Asobo content. Asobo airliners 3D models don’t have that issue, just the GA planes.

I just started seeing this recently when doing some airport development. I think it might be Cessnas in my case.

Do you have any community Cessna mods? Not too long ago I may have added the flight mode and lighting improvements. But it isn’t all the time, it only happens on occasion.

I had another thread on it.

That makes sense. The confusing thing is I only started seeing this over the past week. But as I mentioned in the other thread I’ve been loading up the AI models while testing a GA airport.

I even had a combo where one was invisible while doing the upside-down spin.

It´s the Asobo stuff. I have no addons that change the generic models, nor the lights or things like that. I don´t know when that started but I remember to have seen it at least since SU10 beta testing. Similar issue happens with the airport signage and the ground service carts. The 3D models are only visible while being really close to them.
