What version of fpsc are you running,
try uninstalling, then installing it, try it, then put in the patches, see what happens, thats what I did as my performance was bad, I dont think a lot of the shaders work, perhaps they will work on them after they get fpsc x10 out.

the problem was in version 1 too and i have tried reinstalling the patches but the result is the same. Does anybody else have this problem. One more thing, this happens sometimes and sometimes not.

deactivate Shaders or use other segments

thats how i fixed it

after buying a new graphics card there weren't such problems, but you should try first to deactivate shaders

It does'nt happen when i deactivate them but whats a good game without shaders?

Looks like I have to change my graphics card, but this one is pretty good. I bought it for $115.

maybe you can try to add dynamic lights... and make a ceiling (close the rooms from above)

i think the problem is the fake reflection on the segments, if you look at them and move a little bit around, you'll see the segments/textures change a little bit

but that's just a theory

Yeah, they change but nothing happens with dynamic lightning and too much dynamic lightning slows down you game. Their must be a real solution for it. So... is there anybody who has solved this problem?

dynamic lightning doesn't slow down your game so much, a game with very heavy (static) lightmapping slows it down more than dynamic lightning

normally, the engine doesn't create more than 7 (dynamic) lights, if there are more than that, they are deactivated if they're not in sight
