All right friends i'm up and running with a dual boot.I was just curious and did some experimenting comparing FS2004 behaviour using two different OS.My system spec:P4 [email protected] on ASUS P4PE512 MB ramASUS GeForce4 TI42000 (core@275 - memory@530)All pictures were take using same saved flight, slewed at 3000ft.All pictures were originally 1280x960x32 and have been resized to 800x600x32 but NOT EDITED (the original pictures were a little more sharp).Both OS use same FS9.cfgThe first picture shows Milan city in Win98 using Omega Det's v.43.45 quality version (same set i used for long time also in FS2002); in this case i didn't tweak drivers using Riva Tuner.http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/29372.jpgFollowing pictures were take in WinXP using five different driver sets; this time in Riva Tuner i set Mipmapping LOD to -3, VSync always off, Anisotropy 8, AA 0.41.09http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/29373.jpg44.03http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/29374.jpg45.20http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/29375.jpglast arrived 45.23 http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/29376.jpgAs you can see, no one of WinXP pictures can reach same sharpness of the Win98 one.So my question is: what i can do for getting same image quality in WinXP?Thanks a lot my friends for your opinions.cheersLuigi ;-)

Is Anisotropic Filtering enabled for WinXP?

i only set in Riva Tuner Textures tab, Degree of Anisotropy force level 8. Do i miss anything?I didn't edit main display set. Luigi ;-)

Hi Luigi,A few things to check for:It looks like you don

well, can you please tell me where i can find that LOD patch? Can you provide a link for downloading?Further, in the afternoon i tried to set AA=0 and Anisotropy=8 in NVidia Media Center (instead of setting those values in Riva Tuner) and image quality improved a lot.Thanks in advanceP.S. I've found the patch script in Power User section of program. Should i use LODBiasFix w2k.rts in WinXP?cheersLuigi ;-)

>P.S. I've found the patch script in Power User section of>program. Should i use LODBiasFix w2k.rts in WinXP?>cheers>>Luigi ;-)yes w2k.rts for XP, but first just go into your XP driver advanced settings and make sure you have the highest image quality level set, this will be LOD 0.0 and check out your image again if Fs2k4 you should see a vast imporvement to what you have displayed here.

Thanks for helpingtake careLuigi ;-)
