Turn radius and Nvidia AA settings help needed

Recommended Posts

Following a new drive installation I can't get a couple of things functioning as well as previously.

First, for the 737 previously, I could turn on a dime on the taxiways with rudder pedals, throttle and toebrakes. Now, for some reason, its much harder to get a tight turn radius 
on 90 degree turns when moving forward again from a stopped position.
I searched the topic and tried some of the suggested settings for the aircraft.cfg, but these only seemed to improve it by a little.

Second, I lost my nearly perfect AA settings for my GeoForce 1070 card and none of the Nvidia Control Panel settings work very well. I also tried using latest Nvidia Inspector to apply some of the recommended legacy settings but after hitting APPLY, it keeps reverting back to the default profile upon exit.

Appreciate any suggestions on how to improve these issues.

For your first issue, there may be two things:

- If you had a registered version of FSUIPC, maybe you forgot to enable the steering tiller.

- Also, you may have forgot to apply the fix for ground friction.

 

For your AA, it's better to follow NickN's setup guide (aka "The FSX Bible"), specially regarding the use of Nvidia Inspector. It may be written for FSX, but just do the same for FS9 and you should be good to go.

Many thanks for reminding me of Nick's NI setup. That was the one I needed. 

I applied your suggestions for improving the turn radius but I'm still having to nearly go full throttle to make a 90 degree turn anything less results in a too wide radius. I'll try and do more brake calibrating to see if I can get a solution there.

Which 737 are you talking about? I use both Tinmouse and iFly, and I can't recall having these issues for 90° turns...

I've only used the TDS and POSKY 739 to test my re installation, and both have the same wide turn radius regardless of attempts to correct it.  I may reinstall my PMDG 737 fleet and check some of those but I haven't flown those for several years now.  Like you, I never had any issues with this before, it all seemed to work right from the get go. All .cfg files were copied from back ups where everything worked fine previously so, until I come across a solution, I'll just make adjustments in turning.  Thanks for replying.
