Anybody had issues with not being able to turn taxi lights off? Also the flicker like crazy. Is this a known bug?
Just flew into LAX with the WTCJ4 and noticed the landing lights/taxi lights flicker and are blocky. Super weird.
Looks like there may be a fix:
Just keeping this thread aliveā¦ i have also the same problemā¦ taxi, landing, tail lights sometimes flickeringā¦ Iām currently trying to delete any light mod in my community folderā¦ I was hoping theres a fixā¦ it was like gpu artifactā¦ I did doublecheck and run all benchmark test on my gpuā¦ seems no problemā¦ cant replicate flickering and artifact like the taxi light in fs2020 elsewhere on any other gameā¦ My GPU is healthyā¦
Updateā¦ I found out after making a few changes in the nvidia control panel from 3d apps decide to qualityā¦ I have a 3440x1440p 144hz monitor, somehow when i change the render scaling to 70 (2408x1080p) the light bug goneā¦ all external lights seem workingā¦ need further testingā¦
Update 2ā¦ changing back in game to native 3440x1440p also seems workingā¦ it seems that it was the nvidia control panel settings maybe? i didnt change anything except using the quality profile in the nvidia cpā¦ Iām using rtx 2080 btwā¦
Edited: my nvidia driver version is 471.41
Iāll try this tomorrow.
I have an open Zendesk ticket for it: āRequest #114169 Landing/Taxi Light Flicker and Show Blocky Artefactsā if the Nvidia fix works (or the suggestion in the previous thread) Iāll update the ticket for Asobo.
Exact same problem here. Running on i7 10700K, RTX3070.
The problem usually happens later on, upon landing. The lights usually work fine during taxi before taking off. Didnāt have this issue before SU5.
Edit: the problem in fact occurs at any moment, sometimes itās randomly fixed, and other times it persists throughout the whole flight.
An Updateā¦ it happened againā¦ as i browsed the forum looking for answersā¦ I come across the terrain LOD bug that many had faced with the scenery and landmark detailsā¦ Iād say why not try it to solve thisā¦ the flickering comes backā¦ change your graphic settings to low and applyā¦ then set back to ultra or whatever settings you choose toā¦ the flickering then goneā¦ will update if I find anything elseā¦ so the nvidia settings didnāt do nothing eitherā¦
Updateā¦ with all highend settings on my PC i turned off the graphic feature one at a time to see which one caused the flickeringā¦ on my settingsā¦ if i turn off the ;
CONTACT SHADOWS - OFF
AMBIENT OCCLUSION - OFF
REFLECTIONS - OFF
with all other settings on high max or ultra it seems the light flickering goes away, at least on my PCā¦ need feedback from others to tryā¦
It worksā¦Great tip fellow!!!
Deleting the UWA Lightning Mod worked for me.
I never had any lighting mod to begin withā¦ the stock lighting is already buggy, at least for some.
It happened again. Deleting die UWA Mod has nothing to do with it. I have no Idea. Just hoping my graphics card is okay. Just in case. Did you guys played the new world beta?
Or does anyone have an idea?

New Nvidia driver didnāt fix it. This issue started for me directly after SU5. Hoping for a fix soon.
I thought the new Nvidia driver had fixed it, because I spent a long while without this issue after updating my driver. Well, just had this today after WU6ā¦
Yep, same issue happened to me again last night with the FBW at KPDX. Annoying.
Hi, try this fix, the issue seem to be from the saving flight times by aircraft.
Delete all the folder in :
C:\Users%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\SimObjects
For me, it worked very well !
