skiflyzander Posted April 17, 2012 Report Posted April 17, 2012 Hello, I am having some issues with the scenery in x-plane. First of all, the scenery is only drawn to a certain distance and everything else looks fuzzy with no detail to the horizon. That will be the first screen shot. The second screenshot will be my rendering options. how do I fix this problem... is there something wrong with my rendering set up? Thanks for the help! Quote

bokepacha Posted April 18, 2012 Report Posted April 18, 2012 I don't know it it's a laptop, I don't recognize that graphic card. If so, it may be a problem with your drivers. Settings look correct. Quote
skiflyzander Posted April 18, 2012 Author Report Posted April 18, 2012 Yea I have a MacBook Pro from late 2011. Quote

Cameron Posted April 24, 2012 Report Posted April 24, 2012 What ended up being the answer from X-Plane.com? Quote
skiflyzander Posted April 25, 2012 Author Report Posted April 25, 2012 (edited) Well, I sent x-plane support the log.txt and images of the issue. If you're experiencing problems and need to contact x-plane support via e-mail it's very useful for them if you include screen shots of what the issue is along with your log.txt. I installed x-plane into my applications folder, and it turns out that doing this messes with the permissions of the folder and that can cause issues which is why I was experiencing issues with the ground. It also turns out that the graphics card in my Macbook Pro (late 2011 model) is a low end graphics card (Radeaon HD 6750m) which I was unaware of and that limits my rendering options to just about 300 mb. That's kind of disappointing based on how much Apple charges for the mid-range MacBook Pros. Sorry, I digress. Anyway, I ended up having to delete X-Plane and reinstall it on my desktop so that there are no issues with permissions. So far everything seems to be good. I just need to install some scenery for North America and do some more flying. I hope this thread is helpful for anyone else who might be experiencing similar problems.
