    With HDR automation on my Dallas Karting Complex track has blinking night lights. If I use a pre-built HDR profile, the night lights work as expected.

    Any thoughts on this?

    Resolved! This is caused by some objects not having lit at night tags set. I suspect it's objects that are visible through a transparent texture. HDR automation freaks out and turns the lights on an off.

    Well I spoke too soon on this fix. I believe it is still related to object's lit at night settings, but even with everything that's supposed to be lit at night is set correctly. The blinking still happens on some computers - very frustrating!

    ISI - can you look into this please?

    Hi PlickBadger,

    I noticed same effects, but those were not caused by the track, but i asume by the texturing and material of the vehicle. I am also working on it. I Did you use a self modded car with self made textures for wcarbody material, some of them with transparency, for Color, spec and bump textures. The effect did not happened with original rtrainer textures.

    I could give you a feedback, if i found the reasons.
