Here is video for 4.2 (as compared with 4.3) - I don't see any issues with the HUD flying the F-22 on landings in 4.2:

1. Video landing the F-22 P3DV4.2 (HUD seems ok):

2. To re-cap previous post Video landing the F-22 P3DV4.3 (HUD Seems to blank out for a few seconds after touchdown):

Nope. win 10/64 My F-16 HUD acts exactly the same as in your Nr.2 video.

I installed the latest WHQL drivers (398.82) from Nvidia for my GTX 1080ti and re-installed P3DV4.3 and cleared shader cache AND still have an issue with 90 percent of the HUD blanking out for a few seconds on landings using the F-22 on P3DV4.3.

Here is what I know so far:

I am using a 10 series Nvidia Graphics adapter 1080ti

I believe the other poster 1050E (who has the same HUD issues I have) is using a 10 series Nvidia Graphics adapter 1070

I think Rob A. (who posted a long autogen video and at the end of his video, his HUD appeared normal on landing with P3DV4.3) is using an Nvidia Titan X pascal

Marty, what Nvidia Video card were you using???

Can anyone else confirm HUD blanking out for a few seconds on LANDINGS with LM's F-22, F-16 or VRS Beta F-18E on P3DV4.3 using a 10 series Nvidia Video card, 1070, 1080 or 1080ti.

Thanks!

No HUD problems with P3Dv4.3 default aircraft F22/F16 (current tests) or normal flights with payware aircraft (e.g. PMDG 737-777, VRS FA18E/TacPack).

I swapped out video cards and put in my old evga GTX 980 with 4GB Video memory and that FIXED the problem with the HUD blanking out on landings in P3DV4.3. Not REALLY a solution since I like my 1080ti (11gb). 😂

I have a similar issue although more problematic. Since upgrading to 4.3 I have NO HUD displays for any aircraft whenever I am on the ground or the ground textures are in view. Is there any solution for this? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

I noticed this too. If you roll off the taxi way or runway into the grass or ground the HUD will also blank out.

Any aircraft with a HUD. PMDG 737, QW 787 and the F-22 as well.

I have Nvidia GTX960 and HUD ok with:
PMDG737, IRIS F-22 Raptor and VRS F/A 18E .

Glad to hear you have no problems with your older video card.

Is you newer video card still on warranty?

Have you checked with PMDG forum?

Do you seriously believe that this a faulty GPU issue since it's quite obvious that this problem occurs with all newer GPUs?

I'm for example not experiencing any graphic problems with my GTX 1070 in FSX and DCS 2.5.

If there are window reflections they also disappear around the aircraft if you are not on a hard surface :(

How many pilots are reporting this problem?

Are all pilots with newer graphics cards seeing this HUD problem?

Have you asked on other forums where HUD problem exists (e.g., PMDG/QW)?
