Flickering Autogen

This is probably a previously well talked about topic but as I'm new to this....... Is there any way to stop the awful flicker and texture 'rolling' on the AUTOGEN building textures. I managed to stop the flickering on the ground scenery which now looks pretty good. One thing I have noticed is that other aircraft in the sim such as AI a/c display properly but buildings don't - why? Do the texture types differ or is it a matter of the more complex shapes aid the render process?. As the nightime textures on autogen buildings look especially bad has anyone brought out a set of replacements without all the attendant lights that flicker, or would blurring the autogen tex help them display better by removing the pixel 'edge's'. Finally - where are the autogen textures kept in FS9?

It might help if we knew where to find this.

Never mind, found it. :-[

what are your computer specifications? there might be something as simple as the Anti-alias of your video card needs to be turned on/off, or your computer might not have enough memory, or needs a newer/better video card.



Autogen is found in a folder called "AUTOGEN" inside your FS9 main folder, up around your AIRCRAFT folder.  It is an .XML File.
