Hi Guys

 

I'm running FSX on full settings and I have decent fps, about 40-50 flying the likes of the NGX in VC with addon scenery etc but during descent and landing I get massive blurries on the scenery of the airports and the ground around it, sometimes to the point that half of the airport I've landed at hasn't even loaded.

 

Anyone have any tips?

Blurries are an unfortunate given with FSX (previously with FS9) and they're something you're going to have to live with to a certain extend.

Some actions know to help reducing blurries:

- defrag your hard drive with a good defrag tool like O&O Defrag or Ultimate Defrag.

- limit your fps to 25~30. This give your CPU more breathing room to "think" ahead.

- get a faster hard drive, preferably a SSD.

- when on short final pause FS for a minute to allow the program to load everything (though this is of course the least preferred option).

In FSX, the more you take with one hand, ie autogen, traffic, cloud coverage etc, then the more you will pay in other areas such as stuttering and blurries. Asking the CPU to load all the information, as much as it can with sliders set at full, is asking for trouble, regardless of your rig. Also, as fwerff has suggested, locking your frames in FSX at 25 or 30 will help big time in eradicating blurries, although to some degree or another blurries is a way of life with FSX. Then there is the question of GPU settings. I suspect what is happening on your take offs and landings is that FSX is loading all the additional information associated with the airport scenery, so I suggest you are a little more conservative with your settings. Blurries will happen on ANY rig, to what extent they become acceptable is purely subjective. They cannot be eradicated completely, but they can be reduced and just by how much they are reduced will be determined by your settings :wink:

Setup your computer with this Guide:

The Guide is for a Nvidia card, you have a ATI card so try no BP settings, or this:

 

[bufferPools]

UsePools=1

PoolSize=8388608 // 4MB Default 4194304

RejectThreshold=524288 //524288, 262144, 126976, 98304

 

This setting, lower no. gets better fps, but may cause blurries:

 

[Main]

FIBER_FRAME_TIME_FRACTION=0.33 //default .33

 

You need to set your PC in your profile annd not in your signature.
