I have installed FS9 in my new system. I have the anti-aliasing set and set also. I still get the choppy scenery and the aircraft wings are jagged. My thinking is FS9 and Direct X10 are not compatible. I am using Win 7. I created a new hard drive with XP. The problem still persists. I use the same setting that I have on my laptop (My laptop verson looks great) My laptop is XP. Any suggestions?

Not surprising, depending on the video card and (more importantly) driver version. What video card and drivers do you have?

 

My thinking is FS9 and Direct X10 are not compatible.

 

They work just fine - once you get the initial tweaking out of the way.

 

Cheers!

I've found that any nVidia drivers that are less than 12 months old won't do AA properly in FS9 without nHancer or a similar tweaking tool. nHancer unfortunately will not work with anything newer than the 197.x series drivers.

 

Cheers!

Nvidia Inspector is the replacement for nhancer and it picks up where nhancer left off.

I'm obviously missing something, but I don't see anywhere in the program that lets me change AA modes per application. Just seems to show diagnostic data about the card.

Click the little tool button next to the driver info and it takes you to the screen where you can adjust the settings for every application.

I discovered that, but only after upgrading my drivers. If you have a 19x series driver, the button is greyed out.

 

Thanks!
