Invisible aircraft (only nav lights) NOT shadows/DX10 issue

Hi all --

 

I'm having a recent issue where other players' aircraft are showing up invisibly, with just the NAV lights and aircraft tag. A search of the forums here elicited many results saying that graphic options "Aircraft Casts Shadows On Ground" and/or "Aircraft Casts Shadows On Itself" should be disabled, as should the DX10 Preview option. However, these are not the issue on my system.

 

I then ran across this thread (viewtopic.php?f=132&t=67826&p=484402) which mentions that there are some add-on scenery that can cause this, too. I have many, many freeware add-on scenery packages installed (one for just about every major airport I've flown to) and could not begin to narrow down if it is one particular one causing this. Does anyone have any more information about troubleshooting this issue that can help me work through it? Has anyone else had this same issue NOT related to the shadow or DX10 settings and managed to solve it?

 

Thanks in advance for your consideration.

Cheers,
-R.
