    The arrestor cables on the Pro Carrier addon are flickering; not solid textures. Probably a setting in MSFS, I hope, but please advise? Thanks, Pete

    1. Hello, this is a known MSFS bug. It has been reported multiple times to Asobo - those are the default MSFS arrestor cables. We hope it is fixed soon

            I know this is old and marked as solved, but I don't want to create a new issue for the same problem. In MSFS2024, the carriers are completely unplayable in VR due to this. It causes rainbow flashing lines across the left eye that only go away when you get far enough out that the carrier despawns.

            It doesn't matter if you are looking at the carrier or not, they seem to render out to infinity in front of you in bright flashes.

            1. Please find the solution here - follow the steps and the problem will be resolved: https://docs.miltechsimulations.com/supercarrier-pro/product-information/known-bugs-updates-and-product-roadmap/shimmering-bounding-box-on-arrestor-cables

              Only happens for a reduced number of users , though it seems more prevalent on VR Setups.

                  Thank you for the reply! I will give this a shot! Are there any known quick ways to get a few frames per second back when using the carriers? They also hit VR performance pretty hard, but are awesome and I really want to be able to use them!
