Thanks bojote, I used one of the users water constants settings and indeed it did change things, but only in DX10 (shader 20), there are more to change in the shader 40 parts. As I have looked at this thread for the settings, I cannot find anyones to try. Could you point me in the right direction? ps: I only want to change the dx9 settings

All that does is create a apply tweaks shortcut. Mabey its W7 64 that I use. Thanks for trying Paul. This is from the read me file: ' ADVANCED USERS (How to edit WaterConstants.Xml)===============================================There is a shortcut in the Start menu Program folder to the tweaked Shader Mod 3 WaterConstants.Xml file. You can edit this file to change waterspeed, reflections and other features.' There are only 4 shortcuts - apply_tweaks - Tweaking and Tuning Tool - flush_cash - readme... and thats it. So I'm still alittle confused.

Hey *******, Ive used your shader 3.0 for as long as you've had it out. I see that you can manipulate the waterconstants xml file. However I do not see the shortcut in my Start\programes\ShaderModel3.0... its just not there. I have the latest version. If you could help I would apprieciate it.

Thats not fair at all to say that ATI isnt good for fsx. My esperience with Nvidea has been great, but so has ati. I run a 6970 2g and it runs wonderfully,as did my 5850, but running 3 monitors was taxing for it. So I wont go back to Nvidea because of the 3 screen thingy. I run all Orbyx, a few Aerosoft sceneries, many addon aircraft and helo's, ond also many utilities like, Trackir, saitek instrument panels, My Traffic X, helitraffic 2009, ezdock, Passengers X, REX Overdrive, 2 sound cards-one for all sounds-one for atc in my headset. Probably a few others I forgot. All sliders to right ex. autogen @ very dense, and water @ highx2. Now fps is another thing 20-25 respectively. Smoothness is all I care about. I ran fsx with all addons and sliders the same before I o'ced the cpu to 4Ghz. WOW did that make a difference, it seems' that an i7920 at stock clocks actually bottlenecks the gpu.( I know fsx is cpu bound, I am judging on the same system with a 5850 with cpu @ default and o'ced) My sig: rampage 2 gene, i7 920@4Ghz, mushkin redline 6 6 6 18-6g, xfx 6970 2g, raptor for fsx, w7 64

I have a 5850 running 3 screens and would like to run 2 more for instruments. My question is can I run can I run a 5850 and a 6970 without crossfire and get this result.

Hey guys, what is your opinions on a 3 monitor video card (or cards) setup. Right now I use a 5850 with 3 24" screens. I was thinking a 6970 or 2 gtx 560s. mmmm....

Me too, I thought it was drivers but no.
