    I have a problem in build 342. When I'm in the track the clarity suddenly disappears until I return to exit the pits or sometimes returns to a few laps. It's funny but in the moment when the clarity disappears if I put the AI ​​to drive, clarity returns. In repeats clarity is always good.

    I tried in several circuits with the same result in both

    I made ​​a video of the problem alternating between normal driving and the IA

    Doing testing I discovered that the problem is in "sunny" session or with few clouds. In "overcast" sessions no problem.

    I reinstalled the game, I changed drivers and the problem continues :confused:

    I have found the problem. In my case it is the trackmap pluging. I've uninstalled it and the problem has disappeared. It's a shame because it is a plugin that I like

    Not sure if its that big of a problem but as said, same thing as you had. clarity disappears/reappears.
    For me randomly. not all the time.

    Is this that transparency=1 thing, that you have to change to a 0?

    Any overlay plugin will overlay and affect things, always possible. :( However, @Dentstjiro; what was your outcome?

    I was not able to reproduce it Tim. Have gone back and forth with different settings but no avail. haven't seen it return either (though I don't race daily)

    I spotted it on Loch Drummond (B342) on a server but since the new build I've been going mental on different settings so its hard to determin.
    But transparency=1 or 0 made no difference in that department.

    Transparency settings made no difference either (which I suspected) nor did different race times.

    So in conclusion it was probably a glitch in the Matrix :)

    Any idea if it occurs when cockpit view is forced in server settings?

    Or, when you get it... Try pressing INSERT. See if it goes away with cam reset.

    Will try and remember that.

    As for cockpit view, it was on Galaga's server, I've asked him if he remembers which settings he used, also on time/weather etc.
    Awaiting his reply.

    Hey. Got your PM. I never force cockpit view unless someone has a faster time than me. Just kidding. I never force cockpit view. Also, I almost always run clear sunny skies and time of day depends on track but usually between 9-11am or 2-5pm.

    Ok, thanks guys. If you see it again, please click INSERT and see if that fixes, so I can pass on what seems to affect it. Obviously note anything you think caused it.
