I was fortunate enough to pick up an ATI Radeon 9700 pro video card. Is there a post somewhere that describes the ideal settings for this card for use with MSFS 2k2? I am looking for settings both within the game itself, as well as settings for the video card. I have an Athlon XP 2100, 512 Ram. I run the game in 32 bit, at 1024x768. Windows XP. Thanks in advance. Looking for the right combination of eye candy and framerate!

SS, Try running the card w 4X AA enabled and 8X-16X AF. Start conservative on the sliders in the display settings until you see a drop in framerates. It's all about tweaking. Also enter this in your FS2002 Config file replacing what is there. Open up your fs2002 cfg file and under the terrain section change the last three lines as follows:TERRAIN_DEFAULT_RADIUS=5.000000 TERRAIN_EXTENDED_RADIUS=8.000000 TERRAIN_EXTENDED_LEVELS=3 Also, shoot a PM out to Paul01. As much as I may hate to admit it (LOL) The man does know a thing or two about getting the most from the graphics and your hardware.Bobby
