Hi!
Can anyone tell me how to get rid of jagged edges? I still have them after raising this before.

I'm not sure what this is, but when I am sitting idle in my plane, say on the runway, the ground and the airport buildings seem to shake/move. Generally its the stuff thats quite a distance away. I suppose I have a setting to high, but I can't figure out what it would be.

Thanks

Ben

Set the MIP level to 4 in the game. Any higher, and scenery will appear to wave, and the "barber pole" effect will occur on buildings. Seems that everyone has this problem when MIP is maxed...usually the rule of thumb is no greater than 4 on that setting. Thats the only way I know to eliminate it.

Not sure if that is related to you problem, but give it a try. Hope it helps.

This sounds like some kind of video card problem has this always done this
Make sure your video drivers are up to date. If you just installed new drivers and then noticed this go back to the old drivers 8)

I'll try that, but I think it makes it worse. I'll have to check.

No, turn it OFF in FS9 and ON in your card.

If you've got onboard graphics, then turn it on in FS9. Otherwise, let your card do it's job. Wink
