New FSX.cfg and DX-10

Featured Replies

Hi guys,

 

I moved my FSX.cfg to a different folder to let FSX recreate a new one. The old one was full of tweaks, wannabe tweaks, and all kinds of other stuff so I wanted to start fresh. When I'm loading a flight in DX-10 mode, the loading bar comes up off center (almost top left corner of my screen). Then the main panel is zoomed in awfully close. If I cycle the views, it goes back to normal. This doesn't happen in DX9 and didn't happen in DX10 in my old cfg file. I have set WideViewAspect=True. Am I missing something obvious? Are there any cfg entries required to make the DX-10 fix run normal?

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks  :drinks:

Just a guess really, have you set the full screen resolution to match your monitor?

Hi Ivo,

 

Yea, i have had this too, this is because of you new FSX.cfg file. You should look in yours and look for the lines of your GPU:

"[DISPLAY.Device.NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670.0.0]" or something similar.

 

If you use DX10, you have to set your resolution there too, because it creates an other line like that. Those with two decimals like above is for DX10. I think you can leave them both in your .cfg, but to be sure i commented the DX9 lines out (the GPU-line with only one decimal). Remember to also set antialias =1 and anisotropic=1 for DX10.

 

So it's just the resolution not set yet for DX10!

 

Of course you can also set it from within FSX-menu, but if you have a custom value in the LOD-RADIUS or TEXTURE_MAX_LOAD entries, you will lose those like always when you change something in your FSX-settings.

Indeed my DX10 resolution was set to a different value than my DX9 resolution. Fixed it up and the problem is gone. Thank you Mark.

Perhaps my suggestion was too complex?

Cooper, sorry bud, didnt mean to ingore you. Matter of fact, I completely mis-interpreted what you posted. I didn't realize that you could set a separate resolutions for DX9 and DX10 each. I thought that one 'master' resolution would control both. I thought I had already done what you were suggesting (I had in DX9). Mark just explained it very detailed for me to understand. So your post went completely over my head at first until I went back to re-read the whole thread.

 

Thanks to the both of you.

I'm glad it works, and that was exactly the reason of my elaborate post :)

But his remark was funny, because he basically did give the same answer as me, but I needed a few hundred more words ;)

Hi gurus...

 

I think i didn't set up my system properly last time i tried this.. so i want to do it again ahead of Steves release ....my CFG settings below for the graphics  are:

 

[DISPLAY.Device.NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670.0]
Mode=3840x1080x32
TriLinear=1

 

I believe this will change to .......670.0.0

 

What about my 2 other monitors attached? Will i need to add decimals to them as well?

 

[DISPLAY.Device.NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670.1]
Mode=1366x768x32

[DISPLAY.Device.NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670.2]
Mode=1366x768x32

 

Sorry if this is a dumb question... just trying to get ti right!

 

Many thanks

Doug
