Scenery in the distance, zig zag look

Featured Replies

Hello Guy's,I have recently noticed in my FS9 that in the distance the scenery kind of goes to a worse quality, and where it goes from Good/Alright quality -> to bad quality... there is like a zig zag lineI recently got a new computer which contains a i7 2600K, 8GB of DDR3 1300Mhz and GTX460 OC.I have done all the necessary .cfg tweaks... and it still looks really blurry etc in the distance.. Does anyone know any more values that can be changed to fix this issue.. I have attached an image below to show you the issue, and used the red lines parallel to the zig zags to portray the issue abit more easier visually. I also have all options in FS9 slided to the right.Cheers,

Regards,
James White

The only thing you can do with the abrupt change in detail that you outline in red there is to reduce the visibility to around 60 miles or less. FS9 just doesn't render detail beyond that point. As for the blurries, why don't you post the TERRAIN section of your FS9.cfg and we can see if any of the parameters should be changed. I'm still tweaking myself since I still get blurry textures and jagged terrain sometimes.-Al
