Hi,
   I've recently bought a new PC and decided to install FS after about 12months of not having played it. I can turn all the graphics options up to max, but the scenery seems to take ages to load in game. When you fly over say some mountians, or anything that's not a city, the ground below is all blurry and just a mess. I have to pause the game and wait about 20-30secs for the textures/pictures on the ground to sharpen up correctly. I can't remember having ahd this problem on my previous PC, so I was wondering if there si any way to fix it.

My specs: WinXP Home, Athlon 64 3200+, GF6600GT, 1024Mb-DDR Ram, Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS.

Thanks for any help

Hi Cooperman and Welcome to SimV!!
First off, you have a decent PC. I have almost the same specs as your's but my card is the GeFroce 6800GT OC. Maxing out everything when your system can't handle it sometimes causes this to happen. As for high loading times, it usually depends on the place where you are flying. Sometimes, the computer might be lagging abit becuase of spyware or something. Try running spyware scans. Or try to restart...
Cheers,
Ashar

Thanks.

This is on a new PC that is not connected to the net yet, so no spyware etc. And when this was happening I was getting 30-40FPS, so I assumed the PC was handling it, but if not, do you have any idea which settings in particular might help (it'd take a loooong time to go through them all)?

Thanks
