Hi All,I've recently been doing a bit of tweaking and photoscenery development.My tiles are currently loading slowly when I fly over them and often only the tiles that are directly below me load totally. Is there a quick FSX.cfg tweak that can change the rate at which tiles load?Regards,

The only 'tweaks' are likely to be the same ones that improve overall FSX performance. Not the config but System optimization, minimal background services, fastest storage location for the scenery, muliple cores, defragging or SSD etc. Some folks get excellent performance even at LOD radius settings of 6.5 and even up to 8.5 with 1m and 2m scenery with their SSD's and overclocked I7 quad-cores. There's just too much scenery to process to fly fast, at high resolution and at long range with stock equipment. Pehaps it will help to understand that scenery is processed from the lowest resolution and widest range first and ends with the highest resolution and closest range last. Increasing the range will require more to be processed but the central regions will be wider and may give you more of what you are looking for - if your speed and/or processing power will permit it. I commonly run 2m scenery at range 5.5 but then I like to fly slow to enjoy the detail that I got the scenery for. Loyd

Afterthought...If only immediately below is sharp, it may be the mipbias settings which allow everything in middle and long range to be blurry. That's what I had with my new W7 install until I remembered...[DISPLAY.Device.ATI Radeon HD 4800.0]Mode=1280x1024x32MipBias=5 // <<<<<-------------- made a difference for me!Loyd
