VC texture blurry VC texts hard to read P3D V2.5

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

Sim: P3D V2.5 12946

Environment: W7 64bit, 128GB RAM, NVIDIA K4000 3GB, Intel 8 core Xeon E5-2687W, 3.1GHz

Airplane: PMDG 737NGX V1.10.6461

 

 

My problem is that the texture particular the texts above buttons, knobs etc. are a little bit too blurry and hard to read with normal zoom around 0.5 - 0.7. In the PMDG  Operations Center you can change in the Performance Page between High Resolution and Low Resolution for the VC but there is no difference.. Always the same ! I tried a lot of tuning in the P3D settings and also by directly editing the  prepar3d.cfg following a lot of advises from the Internet.but no success.

 

Any suggestion is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance to the community.

 

Regards

I would consider .7 on the low side of normal. Try .7 to 1.0 and see if you can fly with any of those zoom levels.

My normal zoom is 0.7-0.8 in the cockpit.

Make sure you have Mipmap VC panels option turned off in P3D.

fsx.cfg has this tweak to make vc and gauge text more crisp:

 

[PANELS]
VIRTUAL_COCKPIT_TEXTURES_SCALE=2.0

 

 Dunno about P3D
