Hi and welcome to SimV, NCGent depends on what do you have as a computer ,i mean Video Card,Processor;memory ,see, FS9 is a very strong and heavy software  a simple PC can't run easily ,so describe your machine ,what you have,and we may calculate the best realistic look in Display settings otherwise you'll have a lot frame rates wich is very uncorfortable,so tell us.....

not shure wat dell dimm is my that resembles my dads computer   you can just about max out all settings except for a few   one is view distance beacuse haveing a "foggy" looking distance will make it seem alot more real the other is for how things look in the distance   dont rember what its called but play with the settings and youll find a good mix.

Also try looking for packs that enhance your scenery    use many and mix them together (use a total package like silver wings then change sky effects then add a cloud pack then a water pack unless you like the bas pack) find a good mix and i think you will be happy.

as for the koolaide spill... umm  i hope it dident stain  ;D
