KMIA texture flashing issue in rain

Hey Ricardo - It seems there is some kind of issue maybe with the PBR wet textures as when it is raining I am getting all kinds of flashing ground textures especially when panning. It appears the textures are going from wet to dry back and forth. I have even seen it completely change to some kind of different concrete texture where all the taxiway lines disappear. I am not noticing this in dry conditions. I attached 2 pics...it is raining and you can see the wet surface in first. The second pic is after panning just a little bit and texture changes back to dry.

Hi, I think I saw why this is happening. Those wet ground should only show when its raining. It appears as you showed me in the pictures that it is not raining.
This happened to me yesterday, and it happen during a time where it appeared to be rain but it wasn't. Do this, try to replicate the same situation you had but instead use weather from P3d. Use any theme that involves rain. Let me know, because I just tried with rain all over and it did not happen. So if its raining that flashing did not occur.

Hi - I tested it both with ASP4 and also the default rainy scenario in P3D and it happened with both. I attached 2 pics with the default rainy WX scenario and you can see the odd concrete texture that sometimes shows when I simply pan back and forth. So I either get dry texture or this odd concrete texture:

It was raining in my first set of pics but that was using ASP4. There was a storm over the airport but hard to see the rain in the pics.
Here is a short video clip:

Left Miami yesterday in rain and at night and I can confirm this texture change when it rains. Was not a problem with previous versions (before version 5) of the most excellent KMIA from LatinVFR.

Hey!
Just wanted to ask if there is a solution to the problem meanwhile. I've still got the same problem under the same conditions.
Thanks in advance.
Regards, Dominik

Hi, very sorry but no solution, other than removing the rain polys from sode. If you like to do that, let us know via email.
