Recommended Posts

Hi, What`s is your video card ?About the menu and flickering stuff, it's related to the AA and anisotropy or ATI card drivers"4-Sun Glare will, temporarily and completely mask the cockpit instrumentation view."When ? and how? Sun Glare is only from external view not visible inside.4-Lens flare overdone, looks like a tunnel / cylinder."This is not a problems, because it is fully customizible"4-Clouds have a dark Halo / frame around them.7-Certain distance settings will help mask / make these go into background?. See Chris Willis posts he has a way around"It's only because their clouds draw distant and clouds percentage are very low, set these higher and there is no more problem at all.-Night lighting and streets, full customizible varie on user preference.""4-In Menu> Help, when scrolling the text, it becomes scrambled/ unreadable6,7. No solution and or Work around. Must be fixed by manuf.4-When the Menu etc. is accessed the screen blinks 3-4 times before stable.6,7. Can be ignored . Maybe a Video driver issue? No solution and or Work around. Must be fixed by manuf.""I don't have this problems, see AA and anasotropy or your drivers.

Hi, It was the same in fs2002, it is the sun glare, when your eyes is on front the sun, this is simulating the light on your eyes effect, if you don't like it, you can disabled.-The Lens flares is another things, these are the circle/octogonal from external view only.Display setting:Sun Glare: on/offLens flare: on/off ThanksChris Willis[link:fsw.simflight.com/FSWMenuFsSim.html]Clouds And Addons For MsFs

Hi, Chris.I only fly in cockpit mode. Here is the scenario.Stratus, 1800-8000, 2/8. Aircraft at 1400, to my left 45, is Catalina at 1600. I should see the aiport and most of the island, but you only see the lower part. This is not a big issue, I am not much on clouds but needs to be pointed out. I fly IMC or some High cirrus. TV

Hi, Geof.This thread is getting sidetracked. It's obvious that you have no clouds to very few, try Overcast and or what I Had above. Set your zoom to .65. What you have and what I posted are entirely different situations.If you are happy with it then fine, let others evaluate and maybe benefit from this information. I

I set my clouds exactly to what your post said:Stratus, 1800-8000, 2/8I also took the coordinates of your screen shot and altitude.Zoom was around 65-I don't remember exactly-if you look at the cockpit and boat in the water-very similar to your shot which is what I tried for.About the only thing different would be time of day-which I suppose could change it.If you would like something else I would be glad to comply.I did that flight 6 months ago so I am also familiar :-)

I noticed Antialiasing is not working on my ATI Radeon 9800 pro using any Cataylst drivers including the latest Cat 3.6. When you check the box in the display setup it does put a check there but it does not work in the game. If I edit the display.cfg manualy and change the following AA is working fine. They really should have caught this one.;----------------------------------------------------------------------; ATI Radeon Win2k/XP;----------------------------------------------------------------------[ati2dvag.dll]Disable=1PanelAsTexture=0AntiAlias=0 <---Change to 1[ati2dvag.dll.1]MinDriverRev=5.13.01.3102Disable=2[ati2dvag.dll.2]MinDriverRev=6.14.0001.6307PanelAsTexture=2

Hi Loren,I also have an ATI 9800 Pro (128). You mention AA not working- are you turning it on in the ATI control panel? Bruce.
