:help: Morning all,after suffering from the lag with textures when changing windows in FS9 iv`e decided to swop my NvidiaGT450 for the GTX650 ti,will this improve the grey pics and blurry background i momentarily get?

Waiting for your response.

Cheers.  :drinks:

Hi ALCAN

 

I use a GTX660TI video card but still had to go to FS9 Cfg. and make some changes to terrain data, etc. and have pretty much eliminated the blurries and lags. I think what you want to solve is not so much dependent on the video card but on your settings in FS9.cfg file. Put in a search about blurries, and you'll come up with some settings that might help you.

ALCAN ... Your video card is fine. FS2004 was developed in 2003. Video cards then were much less capable than the GTS450 you currently run.

 

Paul is correct. Set up your sim correctly and save your money.

 

Also make sure nVidea Inspector settings are set correctly.

Thanks guys i`ll look into the cfg settings today!

Hi fellas,i tried two different settings and they were a big flop,i had to replace with default Terrain settings.

I realise FS9 is a little old but my sim is over 30 gig so the processor and g card has lots of work to do,not so?

Any other ideas? :(

Hi,

 

I can't help you with your NVidia problem because I have an ATI card. Just one remark: I don't think that the bigger your FS installation is the more resources you need (of course excepting hard disk space). Imho, the system loads only these data which you need momentarily to fly within a certain part of the virtual world, i. e. a certain airport scenery. It's a question that moves me, too, because of my recent OOM/CTD problems. (I have an installation of ca. 90 GByte, but I saw other members writing of several hundreds of GByte.) Perhaps another member can clarify this question.

 

All the best,

Harald

The problem sounds systemic - have you tried going back to an early driver?

I run WIN XP with a GTS 250, driver is 6.14.11.9562 which goes back to 2010!

You should not have texture load troubles with your computer spec. 

 

I would echo the advice about the driver. The latest NVidia driver totally messed up my FS9 and it was only by removing it and going back to the previous version that I was able to get things back to where they had been. Give it a try...

Hi all i`m now running the nvidia 301.42 driver as i found the newer one`s make the mess your`e talking about,perhaps the 280?

311.06 here. Seems OK.

I currently don't have access to the PC my sim is on so I can't confirm which one I ended up using. But if the one you're using is doing the job, then my advice is stick with it... Glad you found a solution - there's no worse feeling than having the anticipation you had when you purchased new hardware that would improve performance turn into a frustrating nightmare of worse performance!!! Been there, done that...
