I am a recent convert from ATI. Just added a new GTX470 to my DX9 FSX setup.My 2D panel gauges are blurry. In the world of ATI this was fixed by turning Anisotropic Antialiasing off. What would be the equivalent in the world of Nvidia ? I would preffer to use the regular version of Nvidia drivers rather than nHancer - if possible.Thanks

With Nvidia you probably want to use around 8XQ AA and 16X AF.In the Nvidia software use texture filtering quality (either quality or high quality)What CPU and CPU speed are you running at? How much memory?IAN

BrzlYou really need to download a little app called nVidia Inspector 1.94.2 (http://blog.orbmu2k.de/tools/nvidia-inspector-tool) and there is a guide on the Avsim Forums on how to set up an nVidia card for optimum results. With a GTX470 you can run at 16 AF and 8SQ AA (and maybe Anisotropic selected and AA ticked in FSX) and you should get clear gauges, You do need to set in FSX Global Texture Resolution High and advanced animations on. Your monitor resolution must be the 'default' and be the same in Windows and FSX.I have a 460 and the gauges are very clear 2D or 3D.RegardsPeterH

Tried it. No luck.

Hi Peter,can you post your nvidia inspector exported profile for FSX ? I presume a 460 should be the same as a 470...Thanks

Hi BrzlAfter carrying out some maintenance on my FSX PC (RAM up to 8GB) - I'll post a screenie but I use the same settings basically to the ones here at AVSIM (Sorry I don't have the link). It could be a combination of the monitor and card!RegardsPeterH

Thanks PeterH. Looking forward to the screenie...

Old thread but no resolution.

 

I've been noticing that if I apply super-sampling or transparency multi-sampling to smooth out the VC gauges, they also get blurry and thus hard to read.

 

This thread mentions some pixel_size setting, anyone know what this is about?

 

Or any anti-aliasing setting that rids of jaggies but does not blur the VC at all? I don't think it's possible.
