Hi to all,

yesterday I reinstalled the venerable FS9 to test on my pc (in my sign). It's works fine but:

1) I'm suffering a lot of shimmering and flickering all around. And have too many jerky lines on runway and on the wings. I'm using nVidia Inspector, but seems that it has no effect on FS9.exe

2) can someone share its graphic settings and inspector setting?

3) I have problem to access the menu when I am in full screen mode, ALT key can't work. Windows 10?

any help, thanks so much in advance

You will need to use Nvidia Inspector settings for FS9 for good graphics. Plenty of how toos out there..

Using Nvidia Inspector, the Anti-Aliasing settings should be

Behavior Flags="Disable Enhance the application setting"

Mode="Override any application setting"

For settings, I use 8xS and 4x SGSS and AA box not checked in the game UI

Can't help with the full-screen problem as I only run in windowed mode, being a Win 10 sufferer.

Go to windowed mode, use Borderless Gaming and set AA in Nvidia Inspector as PittsS2B said. In my laptop, I use 8xSQ and no SGSS; but I'm not sure which one will be heavier. You'll get the ability to Alt+tab easily (I guess performance is not a problem in your PC).

Also, set LOD Bias to Clamp and AF to 16x.

Hi guys, first of all thanks for your replies.

I solved yesterday night installing the latest nvidia video driver and setting up inspector as per users's suggestions (behavior flag=none, 8xQ and 8 SGSS) and using AA in UI game interface. Perfect result.

But then I wanted to try your settings and apparently the result seems to be the same (maybe less better) when I untick AA in UI game and follow Pitts's setting. On first try seems that in windowed mode AA can't take effect but now cycling through windowed/full seems to work.

So in your opinion is better don't use AA in game interface?

@Luis Hernandez  how can I activate bordless game in windowed mode?

It's a program you need to download and install. You can get it here:

https://github.com/Codeusa/Borderless-Gaming/releases

After installing it, you need to open FS9 and then, back in Borderless Gaming, you need to select FS9 and set it as automatic.

Remark: sometimes, while in the FS9 menus or loading a flight, the screen might go black. Just Alt+Tab out of FS9 and then go back to the sim. It's a bug I've seen in my laptop.

Thanks a lot,

Regarding the AA option in the game UI, I believe the "Override" setting in Nvidia Inspector makes it moot; I don't notice any difference with it checked or unchecked, so I just leave it unchecked and let Nvidia Inspector do the work.
