    Don't know exactly when it started, maybe with the latest build, but I have noticed trees being translucent at certain tracks.

    Is there a fix for this issue?

    As I recall, for recent nVidia cards, change to Level 3 AA from Level 4.

    sparse grid supersampling in NV inspector fixed tree issues with old Belgium for me.

    With GTX970 I have not seen a need to make a NVi profile...yet

    player.json
    "Transparency AA":true,
    "Transparency AA#":"Soften edges around alpha test objects",

    I think...

    A work around is to disable Transparency AA ("Transparency AA":false,) in the player.json when you race at a feels3 track (Poznan, Croft, Putnam).

    yea don't your AA off - the sim will look BAD

    The correct work-around is in the player.json file/Transparency AA..change "true" to "false" - as others have already said

    The correct work around is fix the trees :). As Tosch said set Vertex Alpha at 99.99% in objects...

    Yep I shouldn't have used "correct"

    That's the proper fix as you say Nuno :eek: ..the other way would be more accurately described as the "bodge" :p

    Have anyone already asked Feels3 permission to do that? If yes what was the answer?

    I don't see why he would mind.

    I mean really what would he say? "Hey Feels3, may I make one small change to your tracks to correct a graphical bug?" "NO!! The bug must stay!!"

    lol

    We would really appreciate to see these tracks updated (it's a 10 minutes job really) because we don't like to see so many installations messed up because of people tweaking their XPAA to make those trees looking a bit better.

    Actually doesn't look bad at all at 1080p. It's lower res where AA becomes more important. But I will try that anyway.

    Last time someone (Jürgen) updated a package, he got reported, links were taken down, topics got locked. Sheet went down. Sometimes I don't get some people around here! Two tongues, god damn it.
