August 8, 201411 yr I'm experiencing a very weird problem I've never noticed. While flying just a few minutes from the starting airport the quality of the textures decreses exponentially. I've tried to research this problem on google (probably the most relevant resource I found is this) but it didn't quite did the trick for me. Please give a look at the screenshot provided (taken on a flight from KGRB to 88WI) I have fsx sp2 + utx + rex. Any ideas?
August 8, 201411 yr Administrators It looks like degrading of your video card. Is the inside of your computer free of dust and the fans clean and blowing freely? If you are on a laptop, is it allowing plenty of airflow underneath?

August 8, 201411 yr Author I'm on a laptop and yeah, I think there's a good airflow... It also happens when I start the laptop and go directly to flight simulator and fly for just a few minutes. It doesn't get very hot in that short amount of time
August 8, 201411 yr If I speed up it gets blurry. Back to normal, it still takes a few minutes to catch up and get back to detailed. If you want to increase time, you probably have to put up with the flurries.
August 8, 201411 yr Author Two of your shots shows 3X speed. Yep, 2x tho, because it was my nth time trying flying the very same route with slightly different settings to see if there was any improvement. The problem is present when flying normal speed too.
August 8, 201411 yr Author How does it look withot utx + rex.? I haven't tried yet, quite a boring task having to uninstall and reinstall everything :-( EDIT: doing it now...
August 8, 201411 yr The blurries happen when you speed up the game. FSX is like Minecraft in a way. It loads up sections as you get closer to them. Since you're going so fast, neither FSX nor your computer can keep up. Philip LaBianca _____________________ "I think, therefore I am."

FSX is like Minecraft in a way. It loads up sections as you get closer to them. Since you're going so fast, neither FSX nor your computer can keep up. as I said, I've noticed this the first time doing a normal flight. Then I did the flight again at normal speed and I got the same problem. Then I did it again. Then again. Then I tweaked the config. Then I did the flight again. And again. Then I searched on google and I tweaked the cfg again. Then i did the flight again. And again. Then I wanted to post for help but couldn't bother to fly again the same rout for the nth time so I speeded up the game :-)
August 8, 201411 yr Author uninstalled every single mod and flew again at normal speed. Exactly the same results.
August 8, 201411 yr P3D does the same thing. It's your high quality textures. The program and/or graphics card just can't keep up. In P3D you can mess with the affinity mask and it allegedly helps the problem.
August 8, 201411 yr Author You guys are right, my card can't keep up. After having paused the game in windowed mode and waited a bit that's what I got BEFORE AFTER how can I correctly tune my settings to get the max quality I can afford?
