Hard to say something. I see cirrus clouds (?). The resolution of this picture is very poor (Photobucket is one of thw worse hoster from 2-3 years, after changes). Better use Imgur for this for example https://imgur.com/.

Here is mine in P3Dv4.3. No any anomally here:

Hello Bob , in hope of resolving the reflection issue I have prepared a version of the glass texture for you without any visual effects .

Place this in the base versions texture folder .

Hi
Thanks for the file and it did change the way the reflections show. However it still looks a little strange. I still get a strange effect (almost like oil on water) when first entering the sim. I can temporally remove the effect by,turning on dynamic reflections re-entering the sim then turning dynamic reflections off. However they return the next time I start the sim.

Thanks
Bob

Hi all
I recently updated to P3DV4.4 from V4.3 unfortunately it has mad the "fake reflections" worse.
In the past (P3dV4.3), if I turned dynamic reflections on then off again the "fake reflections would go away with 4.4 they do not go away.

Please note.
1/ Both the MILVIZ Beaver and Piston Otter are fine (They don't have the "fake Reflections"
2/ The "fake reflections" (I think Collin called them that) are horizontal white lines which move around the windshield. (They almost look like oil on water).
3/ Is there anything I can do to remove them? It must be something MILVIZ have done to the glass textures which was not present in the Beaver or Piston Otter

Thanks in advance if you can help as I did enjoy the turbo otter but I can't use it at present.
Bob

Hi
Thanks for replying and the file.
However copying the file in to the sim made no difference.
I still have white moving arcs across the wind screen when dynamic reflections are turned off, and oily moving marks on the windscreen when dynamic reflections are turned on, very strange as this is the only plain that I have these issues with.
Regards
Bob
