November 6, 201213 yr Has anyone tested SweetFX or FXAA in conjunction with Bojote's Shader 3 mod? I've already found ENB and Shader 3 don't get along on my ATI card. I run DX9 mode btw. ckyliu, proud supporter of ViaIntercity.com. i5 12400F, 32GB, RTX4070, more in "About me" on my profile.
November 6, 201213 yr Many thanks for that information.-) Just to make sure, and ask one more time... Is anyone using FS in windowed mode with more than one screen? I am using open cockpits V3 FMC and the fmc is a second screen and I need to undock the cdu in VC and drag it to the fmc screen... Thats when my FPS drops to be steady at 4... from about 25... and this only happens with SWEETFX... Has anyone got a similar setup to work? Niklas Eriksson

I use two monitors one for the flying the other for flight planning, Plan G or charts. Sweetfx does not like this for some reason or other.

November 10, 201213 yr This is driving me nuts, none of my graphical mods, FXAA or sweetfx want to work in Windows 8. I think it has something to do with directory permissions, does anyone know what I need to change? Soarbywire - Avionics Engineering

I think I read somewhere that installing outside of the Program Files and Program Files(x64) folders gets around it... I think it was the instructions for REX+
November 10, 201213 yr Ok, here are some comparison shots : left = FSX, right FSX + SweetFX I have to say I prefer the FSX!
November 10, 201213 yr I'm intrigued by the quality screenshots, what is it and where do I get it? I'm up to trying anything once.... cancel the above Ive found the link and trying it now.....
November 10, 201213 yr I think I read somewhere that installing outside of the Program Files and Program Files(x64) folders gets around it... I think it was the instructions for REX+ I don't think you can install Sweetfx outside the program files directory. It has to be inside the same directory as FSX. :( Anyone have any other solutions?

November 10, 201213 yr I don't think you can install Sweetfx outside the program files directory. It has to be inside the same directory as FSX. :( Anyone have any other solutions? Er... install FSX into another directory... ^_^ It's always adviced to NOT install FSX (or anything for that matter) into that default Program Files folder. I NEVER install stuff in there if I have the option...!!!
November 10, 201213 yr Yes, but that would mean reinstalling over 60GB of data. Is there another option? Soarbywire - Avionics Engineering

November 10, 201213 yr Whats the root of the problem? Why the problem in Windows 8 but not 7? Here is my sweetfx log.log file full path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\ redirecting CreateDevice initialising shader environment device->GetBackBuffer failed redirecting CreateDevice initialising shader environment ctory1 redirecting D3D11CreateDeviceAndSwapChain redirecting D3D11CreateDeviceAndSwapChain redirecting D3D11CreateDeviceAndSwapChain redirecting D3D11CreateDeviceAndSwapChain redirecting D3D11CreateDeviceAndSwapChain redirecting D3D11CreateDeviceAndSwapChain redirecting D3D11CreateDeviceAndSwapChain redirecting CreateDXGIFactory1 redirecting D3D11CreateDeviceAndSwapChain removing D3D11_CREATE_DEVICE_SINGLETHREADED flag redirecting CreateDXGIFactory redirecting CreateDXGIFactory Soarbywire - Avionics Engineering
November 11, 201213 yr Well, I got it to work in Windows 8, but only when FSX is run in DX10 compatibility mode. Strange! I don't get an FPS drop. Soarbywire - Avionics Engineering
