Hi everyone,

 

Im taking the next big step in trying out DX10. I did excatly according to the"How-to do" and i still cant get the textures to look good.My runway,my taxiway seems greenish with flickering here and there.Im using a Sapphire HD7970 with the latest 12.11(beta) drivers.Does anyone out there using ATI cards that is facing the same problem and what did you do to resolve this.Your valauble help n time is very appreicated.

 

Regards

I have ati 6850 but it's not GPU fault. From your description seems like the fix not installed properly. We all had this runway flickering problem before the fix.

Hi Jewel,

 

Thanks for the reply. May i check if your grpahics are as good or even better then DX9?

Steve's instructions advise that you run the sim in DX10 mode before you apply the patch, Gizmo.. Did you do this?

Hey Paul,

 

Yes i did.

and the runways were flashing, etc.. Was there any change at all - after you re-started the sim in DX10 mode?

Runways n taxiways were flashing at times n its greenish at night.No changes at all Paul.Looks very messy.Graphics looks horiendous. Not smooth at all.No AA.Any suggestions.

Go to your C:\Users\{your username}\Application Data\Microsoft\FSX\ and delete the two Shaders folders, then re-start the sim - then let us know the result... thanks,

Ok Paul. Will do just that tomorrow and report back. Im off to sleep now. Working at 5am Singapore time. Thanks so much for your help. Really appreciate

Hi Paul,

 

I tred searching for the two shaders as mentioned but unable to find.Would you reconmend i uninstall and do a fresh installation again?

Hi Paul,

 

I found the 2 files and have deleted.I reinstalld the shader and the graphics looks the same. Im, using 3 monitors to fly.

OK. This is pretty confusing... forgive me for being pedantic:

 

It's tough to diagnose this problem with the vague answers, Gizmo; (sorry) - so we'll try a different tack - let's do two things:

 

We need to see your fsx.cfg. Would you copy and rename the copy as "fsx.txt" and attach it to your reply, please?

 

..and secondly, would you (in Windows Explorer) go to your ShadersSHLSL\General folder and highlight the name "General" in the left window pane , so that you can see the contents of the folder in the right window pane. This is what it should look like.

 

When you've done this - can you take a screenshot of it and post it somewhere, so we can also see it.

If you don't have any online photo album - you can use a (free) DropBox, and you can get that here.

 

There's no reason to think that we cannot fix it, so don't give up, and we'll just take it one step at a time OK? :wink:

 

Thanks,

Hi Paul,

 

My apologies if my answers are not clear. Im still learning. Paul, i have done as you mentioned but i do not know how to upload the dropbox. Both my FSX.CFG.Txt & Shader info is in my dropbox acct. Would appreciate if you could tell me.

 

Thanks

Open the Dropbox folder that was created when you first started the Dropbox account, - either on your desktop or in your "User" folder. Put your screenshots into the "Photo's" folder, and files that can be downloaded, go in the "Public" folder. These will be automatically published to a website.

 

Rt-clk on the file or photo/screenshot in whichever folder, and select "Copy public link:", then all you do isjust paste the link into your Avsim post - like this:-

 

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/52676345/DX10_Fix/Rain/Rain40.fx

 

When you press the "Post" button, it will change to a blue, underlined link. OK? :smile:

Hi Paul,

 

Hope this this correct.
