random blurriness

[flysupersonic 0]

Fellow simmers,Last night I noticed some strange blurriness appearing at radom intervals of time during a flight. When im sitting at the gate and look around everything seems fine, when i taxi everything seems fine, as soon as i get on the rwy the blurriness appears. While taking off it goes from being smooth to blury until pretty much i hit cruise. As i come in for approach the same operation of smooth to blury images appears again. I attached an imagine for your selves to see, thank you ahead of time for the help In case you need it, here are my system specs P4-2.4ghz2 gig of ram 120 gig hard drive 256 ram on ati graphics card thank you very much

First off try the following 3 things.Try reducing your value for TEXTURE_BANDWIDTH_MULT to 200 if not already there. I only say this not knowing what your current FS9.CFG looks like.Secondly add the following line as is - right below your TEXTURE_BANDWITH_MULT line. (Again if not already there)TextureMaxLoad=10Thirdly for the items in your FS9.cfg file shown below (they are already there you don't have to add them)TEXTURE_BLDG=1TEXTURE_GND=1TEXTURE_WATER=1Change the values to 3, 5, 1 respectively - you can make the water one 2 if you want.Save your new FS9.CFG and then restart FS9Do you see any difference?Let me know if that helps you out please.Thanks.Paul.

Thank you for the reply first of all i went ahead and changed the values and no success here is my fs 9.cfg i ran a few different configurations to see if it would make any difference but i saw none. Let me know if you see somehting wrong with thank you

Remember Backup your files before making changes.I'm not a developer or work for the big FS companies - I'm just a guy that's been tweaking and testing a very long time :)Based on the FS9.CFG file I see here - make the following changes.TEXTURE_BLDG=1 <----------- change to 3TEXTURE_GND=1 <------------ change to 5UPPER_FRAMERATE_LIMIT=50 <- change to 30TEXTURE_BANDWIDTH_MULT=500

[flysupersonic 0]

Thank you for the quick reply. Just changed the values in the cfg. blurriness is gone but ive notice a decrease in the texture loading.It loads the texture very slowly and as im flying, i begin to see big spots of green and brown but no actual texture. Is that do the change in values with the texturemaxload and texturebandwith_multp ? Thank you for your help so far, i appreciate it. Airrr Powweer

[pgaudet 0]

Well please let me know your complete computer specs and I'll try tweaking those values a little more for ya.Paul.

[flysupersonic 0]

Paul, First of all let me thank you for all the help you have given me so far , i will try my best with specs CPU- P4 2.4Mem- 2GigHD- 120 gigVideo- visiontek radeon x1550 series 256 mg(for some reason DVI wont work just agp, if i use dvi screen is blank?)thats pretty much it for the system Fs 9.1 Addons such as:767 level-d737-picCaptain sim 757/727pss 330/dash-8ultimate terrainflight 1 atr and a few more. Also i have noticed since the first change that you asked me to do, sometimes when i start flight sim i have to mess with the atilising in order to get smooth aircraft texture and scenery sometime i dont and it is perfect. I just finished a flight on vat sim and didnt see any problems until i was on the ground at DTW. Could this be a video card problem i updated my drivers the other day. But i didnt see a difference till a few night ago. I hope this is sufficient information, and no hurry on resolving this problem, we all have lives and our own problems. So thank you for your help paul Thanks

Well for the fs9.cfg file I don't know what else I could suggest - your comp specs should be able to run the sim fairly well.Have you tried installing nhancer (www.nhancer.com) and following the tips for that posted here and at other sim forums?This will help with your anti-aliasing settings.Don't forget to defrag your hard drive regularly.My nhancer settings for fs9 are below:First get the latest version of nhancer (Version 2.3.2) from the website above.When you start delete the existing profiles for fs9 and then create a new one.Use the settings below:Under the Enhancement Tab Antialiasing - Combined - 4Xs Transparancy AA - Super Anisotropic Filtering - 4X Vertical Sync - Off Force OpenGL Triple Buffer - CheckedUnder the Optimization Tab Texture Filtering - Quality Trilinear Filtering - On Aniso. sampling optimization - On Neg LOD Bias - Clamp Force DXT3 (OpenGL) - OnOn Compatibility Tab. Force Mip Maps - Trilinear High Dynamic Range - Enabled Conformant Texture Clamp - OnI hope this helps.Paul.

[flysupersonic 0]

Paul,Looks like your advise worked! with nhancer and the settings you gave me and the previous help with the fs9.cfg everything is running smooth now. Thank you so much for your help deeply appreciated. Thank you,Mersad

[pgaudet 0]

Just glad to help.WEnt through all the things you and everyone else went through - I was tweaking way more then flying unfortuneately.But getting back to that now :)Glad I could help.If anyone else has some issues with their sim or settings I'd be glad to try and help you guys/gals out too.Thanks.Paul.

[1st fltsimguy 466]

I am curious, does nhancer (www.nhancer.com) work with Radeaon PCI Express Cards or just GForce?

[pgaudet 0]

nhancer is for nvidia video cards

[tunnelcat 1]

Paul,Just curious here, what does changing the TEXTURE_BLDG and TEXTURE_GND numbers from 1 to 3 and 5 do? Do things look different or does it just speed up texture load times?Kim

[pgaudet 0]

From what I can tell no it doesn't make anything look different. Your textures will still look the same.From experience on my machine increasing those values seem to keep them sharper longer and quicker.I have yet to find an 'actual definition' of these fs9.cfg entries but as I said on my machine it helps to increase their values.Thanks Paul.

[tunnelcat 1]

Thanks Paul, I'll try changing these two values and see what things look like in my setup.One note on the entry 'TERRAIN_EXTENDED_LEVELS=232. I've read in several places, including this forum, that the number should be 4.0 or but no lower than 3.0 if you want to eliminate the blue slivers that you can sometimes see between texture tiles in the distance in FS9. I tried a setting of 3.5 and got good results.Kim
