Anybody Else have this jagged problem

Featured Replies

No matter what I have my AA set on I can not stop the Airport lines from giving me jaggies. Every thing else is butter smooth just the taxi and tarmiac lines are jagged.http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/161705.jpgsee how they are ok up close but in the distance the go jagged on me. And its only the airport lines that do this.:-(

Please give us your specs and settings. I have AA off in the game, and set 8xS on my card. I'm not sure which slider would help, but try turning some all the way up and see if you get any better. I also did the tweaks and noticed an improvement in quality. Otherwise we need some specifics.

I have tried them all that photo has it set on my card at 6AA and 8 AF.Same thing even if I push it up to 16AF. It is a little worse at 2AA and 4AF. I'm just wondering if ATI cards may be having problems with those lines nothing else goes jaggied.

I wouldn't say its an Ati issue as I have used two different Ati cardswith FSX, both of 'em set to 2x-4x in the Ati control panel and Trilinear in FSX, and don't have the problem.

Guess its something that may be my problem only. I guess I can deal with that.:) Mayb the next driver set might cure it who knows.

Check the LOD slider. If ts all the way to the left this might cause the problem as the mipmap level seems to be below some kind of threshold for the card driver to apply AA. It's certainly doing it in the foreground OK.BTW, this is a hardware question, AGAIN posted in the FSX forum. No doubt it will get moved, but can we please try and keep things in the right place!?!There are some interesting technical discussions going on in the Hardware forum that impact on issues like this, so you might save yourself from having to post!Allcott

you mean the LOD slider in FSX? What about if we have this problem in FS9?

I'm not sure which line(s) you mean. Do you mean the yellowish taxi line arcing along toward the center of the runway? If so, then it has that segmented look by design. Microsoft did not put very many points in the curve. That's why it looks segmented and jaggy.If on the other hand, you mean jaggies on the distant taxiways, then that's a different matter.RhettAMD 3700+ (@2530 mhz), eVGA 7800GT 256 (Guru3D 93.71), ASUS A8N-E, PC Power 510 SLI, 2 GB Corsair XMS 3-3-3-8, WD 250 gig 7200 rpm SATA2, CoolerMaster Praetorian

No I put that in to try and track down if it was just the white lines causing that early. That was just me messing around with the DDS file. I added some black and brown to them. Just forgot to redo them.:)

I had the same problem using Catalyst 6.10 drivers. Switched to the 6.9 Omegas and it went away.Aaron

Thanks Aaron will give his a try.

I have the same problem, The taxiway and centline markings are not getting AA applied and is very very bad from slight distance.I have a 7900GT with 4xAA, TRxAA and GamaxAA at 1600x1200 and the airports look crapy as you aproach because of this. The ingame settings do nothing to correct this, and in FS9 all markings are crisp with no jagys.
