That looks much better, I will give this a try once I finish some work
-
I have NVIDIA driver 347.88 currently. That is the one I installed when I followed your instructions
-
I have experimented with zoom levels a little as you've mentioned, and it does indeed help making the illusion that the buildings and trees disappear at a distance just like they would in real life as the angle between your eyes and the buildings height decreases. However, in order to use zoom-levels correctly in order to feel comfortable flying the sim, I will need some sort of camera changing software. I have heard OpusFSI and EZDOK could serve this purpose. Anybody has any experience with these?

Well, looking at this picture from another thread comparing some autogen settings: http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7289/11440272736_deb890fb63_o.gif There seems to be a clear "horizon" or better said "radius" after which autogen is just not generated anymore and therefore, shows up as a big blurry patch on the terrain. I think this is normal behavior, as only people with payware add-ons have improved "scenery" addons that surpass the default by a large margin as seen in George's video
-
I see...so I think we're stuck with this low radius of autogen then, unless the region includes better autogen through payware
-
Even in your picture, it seems right below the aircraft and a little bit further looks great. But as soon as you move a little too far, you lose autogen and you lose texture clarity. I think this is all P3D and the way it handles the radius of detail. Even if I pause the sim and let it have it's time to load autogen, it does not. Only if my aircraft is moving, the buildings start loading. But then I wonder how George got his autogen to show so far away in his configuration video:
-
I do not have FTX global installed yet. This is in the default airport that loads with P3d - KLFI
-
Can someone send post a reference picture of this exact scene during the default flight? Just bank right after take-off, this is how I'm getting these pictures. I just want to compare what it's supposed to look like

Here is the screencap after following all of your steps on a vanilla installation of P3D 2.5 http://gyazo.com/3dd905dbe003d80235052f5e55f1451f http://gyazo.com/06ab386593da501df8d16ef7e0afb898 I still see major blurries after the water body

Thank you Richard, I will try that right now. Also, here is a recent screencap before performing the steps you've mentioned above. http://i.gyazo.com/73ab5b0461a8d4103c5bfd4f54d55a39.jpg Is the right side of the red line the proper quality, or is that still blurry?

Thank you all for some of your tips. Although this is all very discouraging, I still sort of want to believe in the promise of P3D. I have performed a stress test on the card as recommended by a few of you. These are the results: http://i.gyazo.com/4caf27ce3a1c4c35255431585a0bcb7f.jpg The card as you can see, ran perfectly stable, averaging between 154 and 184 frame depending on the position on the scene. Temperatures never surpassed 74C. That rules out the card. Now, what program should I use to stress my processor? EDIT: I was not convinced by that other stress test due to the fact that it's only based on OpenGL performance, so I loaded Unigine Valley running on DX11, Ultra HD settings at 1080p with Vsync off. http://i.gyazo.com/a283f900df6f18e226311ed7b69e75c3.jpg The card performed just fine, and in comparison to other people with the same card using the same benchmarking tool, I am getting higher scores and better frames.So I am ruling out the card in this one.

Bad news guys :( I just formatted the whole machine. New drivers, new installation without addons, just George's P3D settings. And this is straight from the default flight: http://i.gyazo.com/76aa082b0af650e21585f21f29fd4752.jpg And as I move in, they start popping up one by one http://i.gyazo.com/4a52ddfb3dbef98d003a3c75bb9bc85d.jpg I take off, I see very nice autogen next to the airport. Take a right, and cross the waterbody and see those really ugly blurries with no autogen on. Is there something else I should be looking at? EDIT: Here are some pictures of my CPU usage and temperatures during this test flight with vanilla P3D 2.5 on a new installation http://i.gyazo.com/f08bc43d3467afd6962dba68f1610c03.png http://i.gyazo.com/e92a6212280a66c268fa755946f36eb3.png

The card is not overclocked. And George, thank you for those! I will definitely give your settings a try.
-
I will try formatting this drive and performing a clean install of everything, including video drivers. Will report back guys! Also, I will test this without any add-ons, and install one by one as I test. Thanks for your replies. Is there anything else I should be looking at?

My current LOD Radius setting is 6.5. I have tried increasing that to 9.5 even, and I see no change. I also read somewhere on this forum that that setting doesn't do anything anymore on P3d since 2.4

Hello everyone, I have been a lurker of these forums for about 3 years now, but it is only now that I have decided to make my first post, and unfortunately it is with a question. I have been an FSX user for around 4 years, but recently I was convinced by a fellow simmer that Prepar3d is worth the upgrade, especially since version 2.5 turned out to be very polished. For that reason I decided to give it a try with the Academic version. I have installed a few of my most used add-ons (REX 4, FTX Global and Vector, Soft Clouds and KMIA from LatinVFR) to use with this version of the simulator. Even though everything looked very promising with the use of DX11, tesselation, better lighting and overall graphical improvement over FSX, I have come to notice a few things that are a little bit disappointing in my point of view. To illustrate what I mean, I will add a picture to the post: http://i.imgur.com/6IYsZtN.jpg As you can see, everything above that red line is completely blurred. Is it normal P3d 2.5 behavior to have such a low level of detail radius? I have tried to increase this in the simulator display options and also through the Prepar3d.cfg file, but these tweaks have not had any effect. Another problem that I am having is that, even though I may get used to live with the short radius of detail, as soon as I start moving towards these "blurries" the buildings pop up in a very noticeable way. Here are my computer specs" Processor: Intel i7 4790k @ 4.4 GHz Graphics: EVGA GTX 980 Superclocked RAM: 8 GB Prepar3d is installed on a 1TB Western Digital Black That picture was taken using one of the default GA aircraft. My graphics settings are as follows: FXAA: Off (Set through Inspector) MSAA: 8 samples Texture Filtering: Anisotropic x16 Texture Quality: Medium (1024x1024) Resolution: 1920x1080x32 Vsync: Off (Set through Inspector) Target Framerate: 30 Tesselation Enabled Lastly, these are my autogen settings: http://i.gyazo.com/e4ae13600ba00282069a17dcde230def.png Is this normal behavior, or is there something wrong with my system? Thank you all!
