FS9 Mist

Hi People,

 

Recently installed FS9 after being on FS2002 for ages.

 

When there is reduced visibility but clear skies, I dont see a mist effect. All that seems to happen is that the sky becomes closer and just cuts off the ground at the visibility limit. IE if visibility was 4km, you will see the ground clearly for 4km then you'd just get a horizon line then the sky...hard to explain but hope someone can help me!

 

Thanks.

 

Dan.

I understood what you mean.... It's probably related to your video card..

 

What graphics card are you using?

What drivers?

What DirectX version?

 

cheers!

Radeon 9200SE 128MB, drivers updated last year (maybe I should update again) and whatever directx version came with FS9 I suppose!
