Hi,Is texture_bandwidth_multiplier adjusted in your FS9.cfg?Is your HD defraged on a regular basis?Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development Team Active Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter: http://www.jdtllc.com/AirSource Member: http://www.air-source.us/FSEconomy Member:http://www.fseconomy.com/

i regularly defrage my hdd, what should i set the texture bandwith multiplier too?

Hi,I believe that default is 40. Try 200. Then exit FS04 and try 400.Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development Team Active Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter: http://www.jdtllc.com/AirSource Member: http://www.air-source.us/FSEconomy Member:http://www.fseconomy.com/

I do not know that TEXTURE_BANDWIDTH_MULT will affect what Clayton is seeing there. It might, and it is worth trying. TEXTURE_BANDWIDTH_MULT affects the "tiling" effect rate that is seen with textures. Whereas Clayton it appears you are seeing blurries.TEXTURE_BANDWIDTH_MULT=400 would certainly be far too high for a video card with only 128 megs of ram. 160 or 200 would give the best results probably, but experiment with it.I think your gfx card is a little underpowered compared to the rest of your system. Still, though, you should not be getting that. How many running services do you have?RhettAMD 3700+, eVGA 7800GT 256, ASUS A8N-E, PC Power 510 SLI, 2 gigs Corsair TWINX, etc. etc.

hi i only have FS2004 on a dedicated pc so there arent any other programs running besides Flight Deck Companion.but i do think its my GPU as i have my computer running on a 24" DELL at 1920 x 1200 resolutions so that could also be a problem.

hi all!i seemed to have cured my blurries up to 90% and the problem mentioned in my initial post has basically been solved by doing a search here and i altered my fs.cfg file by the followingUPPER_FRAMERATE_LIMIT=0TEXTURE_BANDWIDTH_MULT=90TERRAIN_ERROR_FACTOR=100.000000TERRAIN_MIN_DEM_AREA=10.000000TERRAIN_MAX_DEM_AREA=100.000000TERRAIN_MAX_VERTEX_LEVEL=21TERRAIN_TEXTURE_SIZE_EXP=8TERRAIN_AUTOGEN_DENSITY=0TERRAIN_USE_GRADIENT_MAP=1TERRAIN_EXTENDED_TEXTURES=1TERRAIN_DEFAULT_RADIUS=0.0 //5TERRAIN_EXTENDED_RADIUS=0.0 //9.5TERRAIN_EXTENDED_LEVELS=1 //1RENDER_TO_TEXTURE=1In my NVidia settings I have the following:IMAGE SETTINGS -------- High QualityANTIALIASING ---------- 4xANISTROPIC FILTERING -- 16xthis has really helped alotthanks!
