Squishy

Ey thanks for your post!To begin with, my 9600pro is certainly not better than your X600, in fact, a X600 is a 9600 pro with PCI-X.Im using 2x AF, and was using 2x FSAA too, i turned the FSAA off to see if im GPU or CPU limited at current settings.I'll give your CFG settings a try!:)

There's nothing wrong with my PC though (besides it being too slow). My card can never run so much FSAA and AF....But my problem is that the textures look like crap even when i max all the settings (+8x AF).. :S...

can you post your .cfg and a screenie of amsterdam etc?

My pc kinda sucks: 2.4b + radeon 9600pro + 768MB system RAM...but even when i max the settings (resulting in low fps), it still looks like crap. The resolution is 1400x900.. UT europe is checked in scenery!Im using 2x AF atm. And drivers are set to qual instead of performance...edit: Fs9 settings are from the CFG stuff posted above..!Stupid thing is: loading times have increased by 500%..but it doesnt look much better

Ok i copied it into my fs9.cfg and tried againThis is how it looks, still nothing like the pics....:

Ok so i installed Ultimate Terrain for europe, so now i have both UT and GE pro..and this is how it looks above amsterdam:

Ah i see. Yet i dont understand what the weather has to do with ground textures? Atm i only have the partly cloudy because it took too long..but shouldn't it work then when im using fair weather? I don't see why the ground textures wouldn't work when the weather is different.I have activated and installed them all though, the ground textures still dont look like the KLM picture..

Ey all, so i got my hands on Ground Environment Pro, and followed the tutorial on http://environments.flight1.net/gepro/tutorial.htmBut it doesn't look even CLOSE to what the screenshots show, even when i max out the texture options in FS2004Take a look at some of the screenshots:http://environments.flight1.net/gepro/Gallery%20V2.htmAm i doing something wrong?:/thanks

You guys fly this realtime?;p 0o

Indeed, dont max out on FSAA and AF, they'll kill FPS.ALso, do not max on autogen etc, its heavy on CPU

Ah, so i guess that's it.I'll try turning the option off..weird it's turned on by default though:S!So just to be sure, whenever you use a backcourse, there's no glide slope? never?edit: ah i get it..you cant just turn it around like you can with a localizer..?thanks again;]

Yes, i noticed that it's the wrong way around.But why?? according to my GPS and according to my FSnavigator the runway has a localizer from BOTH directions, and both have a different course! The one on the other side says 103. Why does it show the backcourse localizer when it says there's a localizer for both directions?

Yes i've had the problem 1x on an airfield that worked OK before.BC is off btw! But it's not always that it turns around, it may also take another localizer even though it's on a totally different ILS frequency :SHere's a picture (attached) of FSnavigator and a video of the problem:Video:http://wpxldk.googlepages.com/fsproblem.avi

No, it's on NAV, i never touched it.edit: i'll make a short vid + a screenie of FSnavigator, brb!

ey allIm new to this forum and signed up because i've been having this problem..Im not a noob in FS games, i know how it works and can usually land any plane on any airfield.Usually i land a jet using ILS frequency and approach autopilot. All goes well, i fly it manually to correct course, wait for the localizer to pop in..turn on APP etc..But now my problem, 1/4 times whenever i turn on the APP, the autopilot turns around, crashes the plane, or flies to another airfield. Now i did not fill in the wrong radio NAV1 frequency nor the wrong course(i checked 10x)..Two example:-Sometimes, when i set the NAV 1 to e.g. 190.50mhz (the correct one), the AP will just turn around to another airfield and with a totally different frequency (i checked all runways)-the autopilot will just turn around when i turn on APP (to e.g. HDG 103) even when the runway is straight ahead, im connected to that ILS frequency, and im flying HDG 280I can't figure it out..it must be some sort of bug in FS2004?thanks!
