Hugh Johnston Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 G'day All, I've just about had enough with my blurries problem so I decided to ask for help. I've gone through just about every topic with the word blurry in it but still the same. I believe I have alright specs to get them but its just not right. I have; Microsoft Pro XP SP2 Intel core 2 duo 6400 @ 2.13GHZ 2.49GB RAM 232 GB Hard Drive NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GS 256mb Any help would be really appreciated. Here are some shots.

John Venema Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 Main issue for you is the 256mb video card with has neither the bandwidth nor the texture memory to cope with any more than autogen at Normal or less. Try turning your autogen off completely and report back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bendigoandy Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 What are your frame rates set at?...I use 22fps and no longer have the dreaded blurries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 Hey john, that plane you have, i painted that, I also no longer have it on my PC, could you please send it to me? I have been wondering how i will get that back for a while now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex330 Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 As fas as I know, it s the 2,13 ghz that are holding your FSX back. Especially combined with your video card, 2,13 ghz is just not enough. I have a E6750 @ 2,7 ghz and while it runs smoothly most of the time, I encounter blurries from time to time, after having applied various tweaks. I'm no expert at this, but maybe overclocking is the way to go for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markwlee Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 Hey Alex. I run my E6750 at 3.4gHz - no problems. In the BIOS, go to the M.I.T. section where there's a CPU Clock Ratio multiplier that needs to be changed from 6 to 8. This makes a significant difference to FSX. No Guarantees and all Risks are your own, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Johnston Posted May 25, 2008 Author Share Posted May 25, 2008 Thanks for the advive guys. I think I just might need to up date my CPU sometime in the future. What are your frame rates set at?...I use 22fps and no longer have the dreaded blurries.I set my fps at 25. Hey john, that plane you have, i painted that, I also no longer have it on my PC, could you please send it to me? I have been wondering how i will get that back for a while now Jason were you talking to me. If so the repaint of the C208 is one that I did a month back now. If you would like it i'll try and get it to you. Cheer Hugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 HEHE so you did, here is the one i made a long time ago, http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c223/davz/Comparison.jpg compared to the real plane, funny we both did the same paint, this was my first ever re paint actually, I have improved hugely since then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Johnston Posted May 25, 2008 Author Share Posted May 25, 2008 It's a really nice looking bird thats why I did it. I also did the Toll aircraft VH-UZY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heiko Glatthorn Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 John, i don't see FSX blurries (not completely loaded textures) in those pictures above. Of course FSX reduces the level of detail further out. The only thing you can do is to increase the LOD radius (which is a huge FPS killer) or run the sim at a very high resolution like 1920x1200 and very high AF settings. Therefore you'll need some serious GPU power. And even then you have to zoom out pretty much to get a sharp picture at the horizon. Btw - any chance to download this nice 208 livery ?

Hugh Johnston Posted May 26, 2008 Author Share Posted May 26, 2008 Mango, could be possible. Just let me know how to do it. Cheers Hugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heiko Glatthorn Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 For such high resolutions you need usually a 24" monitor (if you use LCD). The upcoming 9900 GTX will most likely chew it at 16x quality AF and 8x quality AA. My over clocked and water cooled BFG 8800 GTX (at 650/2000) struggles... So we are talking about two very expensive pieces of hardware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solareagle Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Try zooming out to .60 and see if things look better. If you are zoomed in too much you're going to see the lower LOD textures in the distance. Also if texture seem that they are not loading in fast enough below the plane a Quad core may be the only cure. I tried for a long time to get blurry free on my dual, and once I got a Quad my blurries were gone, and my quad runs 600MHz slower than mty daul.
