Lepres Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Have been reading up on Kostas' fsx tweaks guide and am tempted to try it out. Also read about the use of Nvidia Inspector. Is this safe to use? Will it change or affect my current Nvidia settings? Also, on which site should I get it from. I'm on GTX 680. Thanks to anyone who helps.

Craig Hanley Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 I've been using it since it came out, and have had no issues. In fact I get better results than using the old Nvidia software that came with the video card. It has way more options than FSX alone, and you can get good results. There are many threads on here about it, some having settings that people use, giving you some instant settings to try. Search for Nvidia inspector, and I'm sure you will find the details.

skypilot Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 And do a search on this forum to get a profile to load that the developers use. Here is one site that offers how to set up:- http://forum.avsim.n...ngs/page__st__0 Wolter van der Spoel also has also posted (I think) the config file on this forum, that he uses.

Lepres Posted October 17, 2012 Author Share Posted October 17, 2012 Just a quick one here ... does installing NI eliminate the original Nvidia UI ? In other word, does NI completely takes over ? Can it be uninstalled and revert back to original Nvidia UI ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 the link provided by skypilot above explains it all, quote 'the profiles are stored in a binary file that's usually edited using the Nvidia control panel's "manage 3D settings" page'. It's really worth reading this link from start to finish, it helped me understand many of the items frequently discussed on these forums, I used it to set up my gtx680 and everything seems to run smoothly (literally) and I have been referring back frequently to this link to check I have the optimum settings for my NGX.

Lepres Posted October 20, 2012 Author Share Posted October 20, 2012 Just done a complete fsx cfg tweak together with NI and I must say "WOW" --- I'm awed by the HUGE jump in visual treats !! Still get a few minor micro-stutters, but they are much fewer now than before, not forgetting that I pretty much maxed out every setting ! With most shimmering and stuttering out of the way, flying in Orbx world is now so much more rewarding. Thanks to all of you folks here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
