Hey guys, 

 

So i was just wondering if anyone was able to help me out on some tips to solving the blurry problems with ground textures? 

System specs : I5 4670K 4.4Ghz, GTX770 and 8GB ram

 

Here is my CFG is anyone has any info on what i can add to improve it or any tips at all it would be most appreciated

Hi Jack,

 

Blurries are very annoying and I sympathise with you but would have thought that they should not be giving you too much trouble with a reasonably powerful system like yours. You haven't said when they occur (over what sort of scenery) or whether they occur when you are flying slowly or if it is just when you are flying fast? Also, do you have your various sliders maxed out?

 

For a start you could try rebuilding your cfg with no tweaks except the highmemfix and see what things look like then (if you are not aware of how to do this, you can rebuild your cfg file by deleting or renaming your current cfg file and then restarting FSX when it will automatically build a new cfg). Hope this helps!

 

Bill

Hey Bill 

 

Thanks for your quick reply... I never really used to have them until i had to reinstall everything on my PC. I never really touched my CFG, i had settings that i had applied in there that where working for me, Smooth FPS and pretty good looking ground textures... The problem is because i never really looked at my CFG as i didnt need to change anything i couldnt remember the tweaks i had in there where...

 

Anyway the blurries seem to occur when flying into cities, I mainly use the NGX so obviously as you get closer to the ground they disapear but it seems at like 8000ft and maybe lower the ground textures can be ugly to look at. But i will do that test and get back to you 

You have a bunch of tweaks in that cfg, som conflicting like your bufferpools entries.

 

I would delete the cfg and let FS build a new one and start from there.

Bill : I deleted the CFG - Added highmemfix, lod radius to 6.5 and it seems like it has really done the trick... FPS are locked at 30 in the sim. I just need to get some better performance out of it and it will be perfect, any tweaks for performance ?

Hi Glenn thanks for your reply, are you able to explain further on whats conflicting ? 

lod radius 6.5 helped for me, but some of my photoscenery looks even beter at 7.5 and 8.5.

 

System is OK at 7.5 but I get occasional crashes if I go up to 8.5 in some areas - OK in the UK with my photoscenery, but some of the ORBX stuff struggles with 8.5 a bit.

 

I assume you have turned off filtering and anti aliasing in FSX and are using the recommended Nvidia Inspector settings.

How does one turn of Filtering in FSX ? I am aware of controlling Anti aliasing with Nvidia inspector, but not aware of turning of the filtering

Not so sure it will affect the blurriest, but your "bufferpool" section is wrong and could be affecting your performance.

If you are going to use BP=0, you should not have any values entered.

 

Are you using Nvidia Inspector? If so, what are your settings?

Hi again Jack,

 

Apart from Highmemfix I have no other tweaks (that I know about!) in my cfg. I now run my FPS on unlimited in the sim and that seems better for me anyway!
