Fs9 - shimmering scenery

[Guest RGH]

I have a problem with 'shimmering' scenery, I would appreciate any 'fixit' tips, this problem is very annoying.RexSomerset, EnglandMesh Titan 2.6Ghz Athlon 642Gb RAMNvidia GeForce 6600GTx 2 SLI

One possible thing to look at is Mip Map setting (display settings/harware tab). Depending on how high it is set you might try to lower that setting a notch or two. I get some shimmering if Mip Map is set above 5.

I have read where ATI video cards do this more since they cannot render something called the Alpha Channel in the video. I see where you have the other major guys cards so I would think the Alpha thing is not a real big thing unless your cards do not do that either. I still think 99% of all our video problems with MS FS2004 or any other version is the actual coding/engine which FS is written. Looking forward with my ATI 9800 Pro card I see all of this shimmering and "Yet" when I look to either side of the aircraft, I see perfectly "Clear" scenery. My question is why can't this clear scenery view be projected in the forward vie also?
