Terrain detail vs. water effects settings question

Featured Replies

I thought I would check out FS9 again and noticed that the Terrain detail and water effects settings affect each other. Meaning when one is max'd the other one is on low.What is this? Is there a way to set them both max'd?W7 x64 FS9.1 is being used.

I never actually noticed this. That's weird.

I have been "flying" FS2004 ever since it was first released and if memory serves, it has always been that way. As far as I know, there is no way to change that behavior. It is the way it is programmed I presume.

Hello,

What is this? Is there a way to set them both max'd?
In fact .. when water is set max .. your terrain detail is also max (but not the slider position :) )Just make a test .. put your terrain detail to max (full right) and check the sim (the water setting will change automatically to lower)The terrain will be the same as with water set max.But you will lost water effects .AFAIKRegards.bye.gifGus.
