Stan those were for P3D - not sure if you are still using fsx

Hi,

 

I am using the std NV Control Panel.

 

Used to use NV Inspector but this was just one other tool to load up.

I found that with some tuning of the Control Panel settings, like Jim, was able to overcome most of the shimmering and stuttering in FSX.

 

Of course, you don't have as much flexibility with fewer options in the std Control Panel but in my experience it is good enough.

 

Cheers,

I've been also using NI for years, first in DX9 and now in DX10. Parameters as indicated in  xxxxx's guide. Currently using a GTX970 graphics card.

 

Very intrigued now to see what else (if anything) can be improved from the Nvidia's graphics settings... never bothered to go check there really.

I have to use NI to get the VS to work correctly. The Nvidia CP only offers 1/2 synch with Adaptive which for me causes tearing.. There is no option to use STandard and 1/2 synch in the CP. hence NI. I use FSX SE by the way.

 

Thanks

I use it, but I use it for more then FSX. I play a lot of other games and have edited preferences in quite a lot of them (Some, like Age of Empires 2 I don't because I don't see the point)

I still use the Nvidia control panel, I simply haven't the desire to learn all the features in Inspector or how to properly use them.

Nothing special

 

 

I thought this was the MS FSX:SE forum?  I would think there would be a difference in settings between P3D and FSX:SE.

NI comes into play more so when combining it with DX10.  I use a combo of NI, DX10 and of course, a sprinkle of tweaks in the fsx.cfg file, but not too much as it will spoil the sim.  Then you have to consider what your in-sim settings are as well.  YMMV though.

Thx for sharing Jim.

 

I am actually going to use on Nvidia CP when Win 10 arrives to my desktop simming PC :-)

Thanks, Jim Skorna,

 

Here's what I did and I have NO MORE crashes, and my frames rates are friggin' incredible  (40's and 50's and higher from my home airport rather than mid-20's, 30's).

• I deleted my old CFG file and generated a new one.
• Downloaded all the ORBX updates and North American airports (took over an hour last night)
• MOST IMPORTANTLY, I did not activate NVidia Inspector but instead used JIM's settings for the NVidia CONTROL PANEL!!!

No more hesitations, and Anti-aliasing looks great.  Flights are smooth and have 30% greater FPS from my home airport (KABE) so far.  I will try in all other airports to double check.  But so far, I am most pleased that my crashes have stopped when changing airplanes or making any changes after the initial flight.

 

I hope it's not a "fluke", but so far, I am extremely pleased with Jim's settings and everything seems to be working well.   Fingers crossed.

Jim Skorna has mentioned it several times in other posts.

 

I am no longer using FSX, but I plan to make a clean install of my Nvidia drivers, when I get upgraded to Win10 by the end of this month ( so I hope ), and start using ** only ** the control panel. Of the sims I use, DCS World, IL2 BoS, Condorsoaring and Aerowinx PSX, only the first two have NI settings enabled. 

I never really wanted NI but because I was finally feed up with the shimmering in FSX vc panel gauges I gave it a try. Now my FSX looks fantastic with clean gauges and I am really sold on  this program.
