Does anyone know of one?

 

I bought a new LED monitor, and GPU, did a by the book sweep and reinstall off drivers and fsx.

 

Used the guide to set it up to the T like I had before with no issues, and now NI does not effect my game at all. It doesn't look horrible but I can not for the life of me get rid of jaggies on wing edges and runway and taxi lines. It is driving me nuts as I had none if these problems with my 560.

 

I have all the settings like they are suppose to be to get NI to work and even tried deleting and making a new fsx profile with no success.

 

Almost to the point of just uninstalling it this is becoming so frustrating. Any help or suggestions would be great.

 

It is crazy because I can't go higher on graphics for assassins creed 3 and it is beautiful and flawless, yet fsx doesn't even look as good as screenshots I see with half the hardware I have.

I can assure you that NI works well in FSX.

I know it does, but not for me anymore is the problem. I have been using it since forever, and now all of a sudden, poof, no go, do not pass go, do not collect $200

NVI works fine with my GTX 670.

Have you checked in Device Manager to see that you actually have the nvidia driver installed and not the default Windows one?

Just to be on the safe side just check that the nvidia Control Panel has the same or similar settings before you use NVI.

Then once you setup NVI check the nvidia CP to make sure it has made changes (it may say "custom" for some AA/AF settings but do not save the nvidia CP settings after NVI as the latter will be overwritten. 

The first time you use NVI the settings do not always "STICK" so you may have to repeat them after a reboot.

Try to match your FSX sttings with the general settings if possible.

FSX.cfg has only got reference to your GTX 670 and not to your previous card.

You performed a "clean" install using the latest nvidia drivers?

 

Try NVI with one of the SGSS settings x2 or x4 that helps with shimmers.

What NVI settings are you using?

That's all I can think of.

Try different drivers.. Newer doesn't mean better.

Reset the FSX game profile in the nVidia driver settings to default and then reload NI and set it up again.

 

Works for me.

I will try the Control panel settings, and then sync it with the NI settings in that order and report back. 

I am also looking at maybe drivers, as I have the 314.07 I believe it is, but I am not sure that is the first driver I used with the card. I didn't have this problem when I first got the card, but then noticed it about 2 weeks later and have been having issues ever since.

 

Device manager shows Nvidia drivers.

My clean install was uninstalling all, booting into safe mode and sweeping all drivers, and reinstalling. 

William, stop looking for a solution for runway jaggies. The default runway lines are always a bit jagged, it's because they have no mipmaps and there's no fix for it. I believe you also had the problem with your 560Ti but just didn't notice it or didn't care about it immediately. I had the same thing initially, but later realised I have had that problem with all of my NVIDIA cards. You probably had other things to worry about more than those jaggies. Same thing with me, FPS was more important at the time. Now that your performance is great, you start looking for other smaller details like this one.

Anyway, it just can't be fixed, you gotta live with it, I have the problem as well and so do all other NVIDIA users. Some don't notice it, others just don't care.

William, just a thought, have you deleted the original NI profile for FSX.  It says somewhere that you must do that, then make a new one for NI to work properly.

 

Also, I had problems with the latest Nvidia driver (314.xx) so I went back to 310.xx and that fixed my problems, but not jagged edges on runway etc.

As Arjen stated, you will never eliminate the jaggies on the rwy side "paint" markers. To see if AA is working properly, look at the aircraft model lines and VC cockpit lines.

You sure about that? 4x SS + 4x SGSS @ 2560x1440 doesn't have jaggies anywhere for me, except in shadows but there's nothing that can be done about that due to the shadow map implementation.

You answered your own question there. You're running 2560x1440 and we are running 1920x1080 - in my case on a 27" monitor - then of course yours will not looks so jagged. Anti-aliasing is actually applied to the runway side paint markers, however, it's not working entirely as it should. Therefore, on 1080p monitors, these paint markers will always look a bit jagged no matter how high you set your anti-aliasing in NVIDIA Inspector, while everything else in FSX will be a 100% crisp.

I decided not to buy an Ultra-HD monitor because I couldn't justify the double price and I was also afraid of a big performance drop. Or isn't there any?

I can't say whether there's a performance drop, but if your video card is fast enough (as mine is) it shouldn't be an issue.  In fact, after applying the traffic fix for KJFK found here, I've been able to bump AA up to the aforementioned 4x super-sampling + 4x SGSS and return my Scenery and Autogen density sliders to the full right settings and still see my worst case scenario minimum FPS not drop below 24, whereas before I was running 8xS (4x multi-sampling + 2x super-sampling) and 2x SGSS and hitting about 22 FPS for minimums.  FPS hover around 30 at almost all times now with vsync set to half refresh rate via Inspector.  I have a 2GB GTX 680 running @ 1312MHz GPU and 7000MHz GDDR5.  Doesn't seem to mind the higher AA levels  ^_^
