FSX video Quality issues

Featured Replies

Hi guys,

 

From my beginning at simulation, i was dreaming to have a great realistic look on my simulator, so i decide to spent couple of money buying the most better hardware possible to make my computer ready to go for my simulator, including a Formula V Extreme system board, intel i7 3770, an Nvidia Gtx 670 4gb, 8gb ddr3 , a 60" lg 1920 res, joysticks, throttle quadrant, etc etc etc...

 

I went so happy to build my new simulator and i didnt realize that i was about to drive under the most sad deception in my life and is that my FSX still looking really bad :( and i dont know what to do now after all those spent money...

 

Did i wrong? Theres any way to fix this situation? I will really appreciate the help that anybody could give me.

 

Note: im new on all of this :)

How so? Is it too blurry? Stuttering? Are the textures not very sharp? There could be quite a few remedies to your issue, just give us a little more information.  :smile:

Thanks for reply!

 

Yes, that is correct.

 

As you can see on the pictures below there is several quality problems and including drop frames between scenes.

I really do not see to much realism on my graphics, i am using on this preview the PMDG 737ngx, ORBX Brisbane airport, not my REX engine because my frames still dropping more than showed on the pictures, i am using Directx 11 with windows 8.1 and i have the DX10 Scenery Fixer installed, and this are my settings;

If some mod could move this topic to the FSX forum, I'm sure it'd get a lot more attention.

the interior of the pmdg looks amazing, also if u want it too looks good set all this to full

 

http://prntscr.com/3w7gk4

 

Thanks! But my problem increasing the settings is that my fps still going down! Also i dont know if DX11 is working the same way as DX10 because im running windows 8.1 and not windows 7 as other sim users with great graphics :/

FSX is a dx10 software, it does not use dx11. From the missing water textures, I'd say your settings are too high, your gpu is unable to keep up. In Nvidia inspector try reducing the Sparse grid super sampling to 4x instead of 8x. SGSS adds quite a bit of extra workload to your gpu.
