Poor sky graphics!

Featured Replies

Hi everybody, since I updated to a new computer I'm having poor graphics (only in FS). The sky is somewhat "layered" and far from the screenshots I saw on the AS website. Sometimes it even looks like a water painting. The aircraft and the groundtextures are OK. I tried somewhat everything to get the sky less layered but so far no results! My graphics card is a GeForce 7800GT, maybe I have to change some settings of this card? Any ideas what to change to get rid of this poor sky?Some screenshots of the problem:http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/134488.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/134489.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/134490.jpgThanx in advance

HI, Look like the fs2004 is set to 16 bits, use 32 bits on fs2004 display resolution. This can be video driver as well, not sure.You might use 32 bits resolution for clouds, since DXT can degrade little bit the quality.ThanksChris WillisHiFi Simulation Software Team Developerhttp://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_dev_team.jpg http://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_proud_supporter.jpg
