DX10 PE Black FullScreen
Posted: Sun Mar 06, 2016 6:44 pm
Anyone had this problem or ideas on what it may be? Help greatly appreciated!
I've been flying FSX (specs below) on PE for almost a year now. I have been flying DX9 fullscreen with no issues. I just installed SteveFX DX10 Fixer and am trying to run in DX10 for some graphics improvements. After setting everything up I have it running great in both windowed and fullscreen mode UNTIL I connect to the PE Server. After connecting if I switch to fullscreen I get a totally black screen but it's obvious the underlying FSX is running. I can switch back to windowed using alt-enter and then everything is fine. If I just disconnect from the PE Server I can then switch to fullscreen fine. The FPS and shadows are much improved over DX9 so I'd like to get it fixed. I'm searching the DX10 and Fixer forums and support but it's really odd to me that it seems to be directly related to connecting to the PE Server and disconnecting fixes it. Is that a SimConnect problem? Just guessing?
Thanks,
Bruce
