RESOLVED Smudge Across Runway?

[matsout]

Hi everyone,

I need a little help here I've got a problem with all my photoreal textures however it's most noticable on photoreal runways and taxiways. It appears that the grass textures etc are smudging across the runway.

I remember having this problem on my old system and it was something real simple to fix it (I can't remember what I did), but in the past two weeks I've built a new system and am on windows 7 now and for some reason can't figure this problem out.

Heres a shot of the problem at Warnervale (cropped and resized) you can see towards the end of the runway it's blury, it dissapears as you get closer but when I'm on finals it can prove to be a real issue as the whole runway appears this way you can only just make out the white lines on the runway.

I've let FSX rebuild the CFG time after time so here it is with just a few simple tweaks using FSX GO.

Hopefully someone can help me because this is the only thing on my new FSX setup that isn't quite right.

Try increasing the Antialiasing setting of your graphics card via the desktop. Had pretty much the same problem as you and this corrected it. 

[matsout]

Thanks for your interest Paul, unfortanatly it didn't solve my problem I tried black and blue every Anti Aliasing setting. Turns out it was a driver problem I rolled back two drivers from 9.12 to 9.10 and the problem is gone, no performance problem either over the newer drivers so at this stage I'm happy we'll see what happens when the ATI 9.13 drivers come out.

Thanks again,

Matt
