KBWI weird dust and spark effect

Post by Dhood320 » Fri May 27, 2022 1:17 am

Good evening from the USA

When I am on takeoff or taxing down Runway 15R at KBWI I get this weird dust and spark effect upon reaching just short of Taxiway F on 15R that doesn't go away. I believe it is an issue with the mesh but I can't figure it out. My mesh setting is at 2M as recommended and I have ORBX FTX global and OpenLC North America installed. Any help would be appreciated. Attached is a link to the picture of the aforementioned effect happening.

Is that the only point on which that happens?

It happens there and exiting off on taxiway foxtrot. It also happens around concourse B facing 15R. The other side of concourse B and the rest of the terminals seem fine but that Northwest portion of 15R prior to runway 10/28 seems to be where that issue is prone to happening. I have seen other people post about this in other forums but could not find a solution,

Update: This bug only happens when the spring and summer months are selected for KBWI as well.

I am seeing this consistently at KBWI as well. I don't typically fly in spot view, but on replays it seems to happen shortly after landing. Doesn't seem to matter where. It then persists throughout the airport.

When loading into the sim, the plane will load at the gate already throwing sparks.

This only seems to happen at KBWI - I've never seen it before at other 3rd party airports (including others by LVFR). These flights will not show this effect at other airports on these same flights.

I tend to only use KBWI on SWA flights flying the PMDG NGXu and rwys 10/28 and 15R/33L; "A" and "B" gates. The PMDG is reporting no failures and it appears to be a purely cosmetic issue not generally visible from the cockpit.

Mesh is set to 10m.
