clouds being sketched by an artist

[flightsimmer747 0]

guys my clouds in the distance are being drawn does everyone get this, if not what is the solution. its so annoying.

I get this too, and pretty much always have. It looks ridiculous, but I'm pretty sure it's just a video card and/or driver issue. If there's a fix I'd like to know. I tried reducing my sight distance in several places, but I still get it.

Hi All,In FS put your cloud draw distance at 30 and your sight distance at 60 and lock your framerates at 20. Then try a flight!Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Sales and Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg

Hi Jim is this really the only cure i like seeing more clouds in the distance and sight distance whatever that is never seems to work anyway?

I have this problem too.The only way to fix it for me is to set the sight distance (in FS9) at 60 and the cloud draw at 40.This doesn't seem as though it should be this way, as I would like to see more weather building up in the distance at a higher cloud draw distance. I have tried 50 and 60 and always get the 'sketched' clouds in the distance. Really takes away from the realism effect. Are there any better answers to this issue?Thanks.

Hi All,It really is an FS04 graphics engine issue. Some users see it and some don't. I wish I could tell you more!Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Sales and Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg

Have you noticed a pattern of specific video cards that it happens with.
