I have this problem that , when I see screenshots of many a/c VC panels, they appear really clear and look great. When I get the a/c , my VCs are OK - but not as clear. I have a Geforce 4 TI 4200 with 128 meg RAM -- not the greatest and latest, I know - but I am wondering if there is anything I can do. I usually run FS on a 17" screen at 1024x768.Thanks Barry

Hi Bazza, From the tips and tricks thread on this forum:Q) How can I make my DVC gauges look more crisp?A) To make your DVC gauges look more crisp add these line under FS9.CFG [PANELS] section:VIRTUAL_COCKPIT_TEXTURES_SCALE=2.0This might not work on all video cards.Cheers,N.

ummm,I don't have an FS9.cfg file! I want to get sharper VC gauges too.HELP!I have installed the patch (partially until a dll file wouldn't install???).....Daniel

<<<<>>>>>>>It's to be found at C:Documents and SettingsYour User NameApplication DataMicrosoftFS9. It's a hidden file so you'll need to enable VIEW HIDDEN FILES under TOOLS/FOLDER OPTIONS in your Windows Explorer.<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>That dll WAS installing, you just ran out of patience! It seems to hang, but it was not doing so. I suggest you reinstall the patch, on that basis :-) Mark "Dark Moment" Beaumont[a href=http://www.swiremariners.com/cathayhk.html" target="_blank]http://www.paxship.com/maamlogo2.jpg[/a]

the patch took my system 3hrs to install the first time and seemed to hang several times, but I just left it and 3hrs later it was finished. The second time I installed it after a format, took 45sec.

Cheers guys, thanks!I'll do that!Daniel
