Hi Everyone,I'm using Tileproxywith FSX at 1m resolution (system struggles a bit with any higher). The question is, am I downloading unneccessarily high resolution textures or degrading performance with these settings max_lod=17preload_min_lod=9preload_max_lod=13level_mapping=9,10,11,12,14,14,15,16,17,18,19What would be sensible values to be using?Thanks, IANps. I changed blend_distance from 500 to 200 yesterday and got a much better looking margin between land and sea around the UK.

Ian, perhaps the first issue that needs to be answered is how high are you flying usually?If you prefer local "low-and-slow" then it isn't necessary to have and use every level of low-res imagery.For someone in the VC at 10000m, anything higher than level 15 is probably a waste of resourses as your field of view doesn't include the nearest 20-30km.If I limit my sim resolution to 1m, then I limit my imagery to 17. In all cases, my typical low-res limit is 11, only occasionally dropping it to 10...See discussion here: http://forums1.avsim.net/index.php?showtopic=243230you might want to try David's settings and see how they work for you (post #7)Loyd

Very helpful Loyd. I'll give those settings a try.Thanks, IAN
