Jaggies

I'm using Fs2004 now and I find that while I can fix the jaggies on the outside, the inside shows them quite clearly. Didn't have that problem with FSX.

Any suggestions?

BTW the monument in the background is dedicated to the Wright Brothers for their famous flight in 1903.

Okay, I'll take your word for it guys. It just seems a bit jagged on the metal strip in the front windshield.

However, I looked at the settings for the aircraft and it was set at high. Put it at highest and it looked better on the VC view which is probably what I should have shown instead of this one.

That usually happens when the panel bitmap is smaller in size than your screen resolution, I believe... A reasonable panel size is about 1024px wide, which is resized in the sim. The larger the better for quality. If that bitmap is smaller than that, that may be your issue. To fix that, one would have to fix the bitmap itself. Maybe if you're able to do a bit of editing and smooth out the edges yourself, that might help.

All this may be wrong, of course, as I'm just using my little knowledge of my sim, with a pinch of common sense.

That actually makes sense :)

Most of the time that will get you far enough ;D

BTW Aussie: That is an excellent choice of aircraft ;)

Makes sense to me. Harold, do you have that problem with your Beech D18?

BTW Aussie: That is an excellent choice of aircraft ;)


Why thank you, Harold ;D Great minds think alike 8-)

Welcome to the club! Mr. Shupe really make a great aircraft and there are a lot of repaints and other modifications available for it. My D-18 folder is over 1,5 GB ;D so if you'd like any more information on the D-18 just call ... I'm happy to point you out ;)

BTW: checkout parts 1 thru 11 of my tour ... it features the D-18

Ahem! Does that include me? I could use a good sound.cfg for mine. I think you mentioned the sound from a Gee Bee, but I haven't found one that gives the D18 some real punch in engine power.

Yes, it is a great AC. You might want to check out the Howard 500 also developed by Milton Shupe. A great AC to fly around the world 8-)

there are slight jaggies. though, its probably just how the cockpit was drawn. a certain angle line will get through certain pixels and give you the jaggie. hardly looks bad though, just a little pixely

Build an actual cockpit and a bit of sanding will get rid of the "jaggies"  ;)
