Graphics problems

Featured Replies

Over xmas I purchased a new computer. I had to go with a laptop because I was going back to school so that meant a compromise with flightsim. I run both fsx and fs9, and I actually get better performance in fsx (over 40fps in most areas with moderate weather with both AA and anisotropic checked) after some heavy tweaking I should add. Fs9 is a different story though, and Its a horrible sight; jagged edges everywhere including the virtual cockpits, some unrendered textures, blurred textures. I've tried checking anit-aliasing but it drops the fps down from 50 to 10. I tried only checking AA in the Nvidia control panel and unchecking it in FS9 but it doesn't work. Bottom line is the graphics in FS9 are poor and my fsx out performs, which seems backwards, and no matter what I do I can't seem to get the graphics to smooth out. I'd still like to use fs9 because all the addons I own are all for fs9, and logically I should be getting better performance with it anyway, especially on a laptop such as mine. My system is a Sony Vaio i5 4G Ram 2.6GHz Nvidia 310, which is pretty basic i know, but it seems to be working for fsx. Any ideas?
