I Couldn't get ahold of Ramsa so I decided to do some of my own tweaks using the Riva Tuner. I've noticed better visuals in FS2002 without much frame loss. Also CFS3 looks near Crystal clear. Grin

Thought I'd share some pics. I'm using a Geforce2 MX400, and AMD Duron 950, and 512mb PC-133 RAM.
(I also tweaked YAFSScreen to get better image quality)

Although you can't really see it in the shot, this 757 used to be really blurry. Crystal clear now.

There has been great improvement in the default aircraft. This C208 Grand Caravan looks almost real.

I just downloaded the new DHC Otter. Looks really good. Great texture eye candy, esp. the canoes.

This is the new DHC-6 Available here at SimV today in an Arabic and American livery. It's Gmax. Props don't look great but the rest is a pleasure to look at.

I only pretend to know what I'm talking about. Heck, that's what lawyers, car mechanics, and IT professionals do everyday. Wink

Yes it does! It works with all ATI cards up to the 9800.
You can get it at www.guru3d.com

It's a very versitile program that allows a wide range of tweaks and overclocking.
