Hi all, I've got this quite bad graphic loading problem. Here's a top down view for example:

Does anybody know how to fix this? I've even tried a reinstall.

Go to settings and up the sliders to about the middle for scenery, and see if that cures it. Oh and is anti-aliasing turned on, on MX2 cards it can cause problems.
Make sure you have also got the latests drivers for your machine and dx9.

Is that view typical of what you see in the rest of the simulator? Spot view, view from the cockpit and virtual cockpit?

System specs including driver details would be an enormous help here.

Yeah it's the same everywhere, though the top down view shows it best. Well I'm not sure where to find out my system specs. Can you help?

This is what I know, I don't know how to find the others:

speed = 600mhz
graphics card = Winfast 3D S320 II (TNT2 PRO)
RAM = 128 I think.

The thing is I've had FS2002 since it came out and I've never had this problem. I tried CFS and I did not have the problem.

I've solved the problem ! It wasn't to do with graphic cards or anything. What it was that when I installed it there was an error it didn't tell me, but nearly half of the scenery files did not get installed. Well, I copied them directly from the disk Wink

. I didn't mention though that thatI only had this problem after I had installed it because of an unrelated issue.

Thanks though anyway for the help guys,

Cheers,

Stevie Cheesy
