Shimmering

[ORN 1]

Hi,is there anyone out there who knows how to get rid of texture shimmering. The shimmering occurs even with autogen off. The ground textures shimmers just as much as trees and buildings.Info:VistaFSXPhoto-Based Add-on Scenery UpdateSP1 (wow!)nVidia 6800 GT w/latest official driver

Hello,Try adding the following line to your FSX config file, add this section in two places in your config. You can play with the number until you find what you like.add square bracket add square bracketMipBias=4andadd square bracket add square bracketMipBias=4

I had no shimmering or this effect whatsoever. But I put the MipBias=X in my config and it actually created the shimmering effect no matter the number. So IF you have it in your config.. take it out and see it that helps.BTW I have an ATI x850XT and run the latest catalyst drivers.

Thanks, Mike. I've spent hours trying to find a fix for this, without success. Your tip cures the problem for me (Nvidia 7600GS card), so I now have very good visuals in FSX.Dugald

I've given up tweaking the fsx.cfg, no matter what I do it doesn't make any difference to me, I'm beginning to think that file finally is fine as is (default SP1). :-jumpy My shimmering is gone by nVidia control panel settings instead. Unfortunately it is in norwegian, so the below settings are what I THINK it's called in english:AF: Defined by applicationAA transparency (the fence thing): MultisamplingAA: 8xSForce MIP rendering: NoneTexture filtering (Anisotopic MIP filteroptimisation (?)): OffTexture filtering (Anisotopic texturesampleoptimisation (??)): OffTexture Quality: QualityTexture filtering negative detail level (LOD): LockTexture Threelined optimasation: OnTripple buffeting: OnExpantion Limit (???): OnVertical Sync: Use 3D applicationInside FSAA: OffFiltering: AnisotropicPhew! this was more difficult than I thought, and I have no clue if I

Hi EagleAgreed .. since my last post, I kept on looking into the problem and the best result achieved is thru nVidia control panel - at least for the 6800 card in my opinion. So, I have also given up on fsx.CFG tweaking.As a matter of interest which driver are you using ?. I am using the 93.71 version.Once again, thanks to the other members for advice.Kind regardsRobertEDIT : BTW : you did excellent with the translation :)
